Figures published today in the press show City are 20th in the list of supporters in the official England fans club, with 371 members. The only top 20 team in League 1 or 2, and above 7 premiership clubs and 18 championship clubs (well 17 if you exclude Cardiff!). And how did they achieve this lofty position - with the help of HMZ of course! Our support was the crucial factor in keeping us above Leicester, who have just 2 less! Rovers were 41st with 175, followed by Swindon in 42nd and Plymouth in 43rd.
The top 20 are:
Manchester United 2585 Liverpool 2099 Tottenham Hotspur 1645 Arsenal 1179 Chelsea 1096 West Ham 987 Aston Villa 887 Leeds United 756 Nottingham Forest 622 Wolverhampton Wanderers 590 Everton 478 Newcastle United 441 Birmingham City 441 Manchester City 399 Southampton 396 West Bromwich Albion 394 Sheffield Wednesday 386 Derby County 380 Queens Park Rangers 376 Bristol City 371
And I can guarantee that quite a few of those Premiership are made up by the shameless fake scousers, mancs and cockneys that live in Bristol. So really Bristol has an even better showing.
HMZ keep the Red & White Flag flying high!
