Can someone explain why Inter Milans is much higher than AC Milans? Wouldn’t have thought selling the same number of tickets would result in that much of an average attendance swing.
Much higher? how?
801 higher for a stadium where you would expect it to be the same. That’s quite a big difference.
I didn’t mean any offence, literally just wondering why there’s an 800 bigger difference than you would expect.
First probably both milan and inter has sold out all their tickets in their home sector in serie a so inter just had a bigger away crowds in san siro and its basically only been 6 home games lol
Fair enough. Appreciate the response.
*Westfalenstadion
Could have said Giuseppe Meazza for Inter instead of San Siro
Technically the name of the stadium is Giuseppe Meazza, but until 1979 it was called San Siro (name of the district of Milan where the stadium is located), almost everyone still calls it “San Siro”. I remember an Inter season ticket campaign called “See you at San Siro” and some old Milan tickets with the writing “Giuseppe Meazza”, both names, are in fact interchangeable for the majority of fans and even for the two clubs who often use them alternatively or together (Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in San Siro)
I keep hearing this over and over by foreigners. I wonder who started this rumour that the stadium has two names because I only ever hear non Italians saying this. It’s an interesting phenomenon.
i think PES listed as Giuseppe Meazza for Inter and San Siro for AC Milan
Funny thing is Uli Hoeneß Said that they miscalculated when they build Allianz Arena and could have easily made the satdium for 80-100k people and it would still be easily sold out (almost) every game
One thing to note about German clubs is their stadiums fit more people in due to standing. This is banned in most other countries and would drastically reduce the average attendance number at all of these clubs.
Schalke and Hamburg are on 11 and 14 lol
Top 5 supported clubs outside the top flights
- Schalke
- Hamburg
- Hertha
- Kaiserslautern
- Sunderland
Some clubs in Serie B could be higher like Palermo or Sampdoria or Bari but a lot of people don’t bother going to the stadium it it’s not Serie A or a promotion playoff, it’s kinda sad because half of them support juve/inter/milan instead of their local club
The whole point is that they aren’t in the top flight but still get very large crowds. Its a good metric of how loyal the support is.
…so they couldnt be higher?
Yeah like we could easily say the same for the Top 5 supported clubs outside the top flights.
If their stadiums would simply be bigger they could have a even higher attendance. I would even throw my club in the ring and say, if Cologne had a stadium with 60k+ capacity, we would also be in that list.
😭😭Exactly. they could be higher but they aren’t so they’re not…
If my grandmother had wheels, she’d be a bike
They merely failed to get a higher ranking
Cheers Geoff
You Mackems are a class lot
I was at the FA cup game at your place last season. Nearly died celebrating that offside goal at the end.
Hope you had a nice away day. I was watching it with my mate who’s a Sunderland fan
Good chance we go up if Stewart doesn’t get injured that game.
Ha Ho He!
Nur der HSV.
Wir sehen uns in 2 Wochen zum Pokal :) Ich liebe diese zweite Liga, weiß gar nicht, ob man wirklich aufsteigen möchte, die Stimmung ist echt immer fantastisch.
Euer Jürgen!
Top 5 supported second tier clubs in top 5 league nations. Weird stat.
Its top 5 supported clubs in world who aren’t in the top league of their country. It’s a weird stat but since '73 it’s all we have to be proud of.

Although Camp Nou is a notable absentee
Are these the 5 biggest stadiums for a club side?
Seeing a match at Westfalenstadion is on my bucket list
And then you watch a match of Terzicball and question all the decisions in your life that lead you to watch that game.
I went for the 2001 Uefa Cup final. However it wasn’t as bit as it is now back then.
Still a boss stadium though.
I’ve only seen one but it was quite an iconic match
you can for like 20 bucks, better seats are of course more but anyway. Plus Dortmund isnt that far from cities like Amsterdam (2 hrs), Bruxelles (3 hours), Hamburg (3 hours), Bruges (ok 4 hrs is a lot). So you could maybe combine it with some other bucket list thing you might wanna do
College football…
Hold my beer
For 7 hours
Being on the waiting list for season tickets really sucks lol
god, I hate that name
To me Schalke still plays in Parkstadion
Oh, never knew the original name tbh. But I kinda get the feels, if you follow NBA, it’s like the iconic Lakers’s Staples Center being changed to Crypto.com Arena which is absolutely hideous.
Sounds like a PES 2004 fictitious stadium they use include in the game
Thought Liverpool would be on this list.
I’m glad they aren’t made like college stadiums in the USA.
Would it be more balanced to use percentages, or would that skew it in favour of smaller clubs with easier to fill stadiums?
