Some surprises for me like Swansea being above us #gloryhuntingscum Also Arsenal being so much betters than Liverpool? Edited 4 July, 2012 by Bearsy being a bit welshist!
doubleonothing Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 That is what prem exposure does for you. Arsenal winning the league and FA cup all those years ago is probably what get's them up the "table". Hopefully we'll be further up with our place in the prem (and the red kit)
Nexstar Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Are you trying to tell us that Portsmouth aren't top?! Lies.
Bearsy Posted 3 July, 2012 Author Posted 3 July, 2012 Oh and lol at AFC Wimbledon being above MK Dons hahahaha! ****s!
saintmatt Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Have you got a link to the website this was sourced from?
Bearsy Posted 3 July, 2012 Author Posted 3 July, 2012 No i is ringing them all up myself. It's been a real labour of love!
Bearsy Posted 3 July, 2012 Author Posted 3 July, 2012 Nah not really, how sweet would that be tho! I would be legend! I is sourcing the raw datas from FIFA12 you know when you say what club you support at the beginning then I is using my maths skills to make percentages. Flaw with this i spose is you is mainly surveying younger fans, probably why Liverpool is falling away and stuff!
Thedelldays Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 So, the best fans in the world are not that at all I just can't believe it... Why would you build a statue for the 24th best fans in the world
saintmatt Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Nah not really, how sweet would that be tho! I would be legend! I is sourcing the raw datas from FIFA12 you know when you say what club you support at the beginning then I is using my maths skills to make percentages. Flaw with this i spose is you is mainly surveying younger fans, probably why Liverpool is falling away and stuff! Good thinking batman! Be interesting to adjust for league position at outset of season (i.e. filter out the plastics) - our support would look even more impressive then!
Ziggy Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Why describe Swansea as gloryhuntingwelshscum? As a Welsh Saints fan I find such stupid comments offensive. Grow up.
Bananaman Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 so the control group is a small selection of football fans, who own Fifa 12... not really reliable,
Saint J 77 Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Are you trying to tell us that Portsmouth aren't top?! Lies. To be honest I am surprised they are even 24th. They are above Bolton and Fulham that surprises me!
Bearsy Posted 3 July, 2012 Author Posted 3 July, 2012 Why describe Swansea as gloryhuntingwelshscum? As a Welsh Saints fan I find such stupid comments offensive. Grow up. I is calling them glory hunting cos I is insinuating they is suddenly crawling out the woodwork now they're prem, I is calling them Welsh cos they is Welsh, and I is calling them scum cos I am pretending to hate them for having more fans than us! Sorry if it bummed you out though, I'm not really hating on the Welsh!
Bearsy Posted 3 July, 2012 Author Posted 3 July, 2012 so the control group is a small selection of football fans, who own Fifa 12... not really reliable, Feel free to phone up more than 2,389,299 football fans and come back with the results sweet cheeks!
Colinjb Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Oh and lol at AFC Wimbledon being above MK Dons hahahaha! ****s! That is magic!!
saintmatt Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 so the control group is a small selection of football fans, who own Fifa 12... not really reliable, I'd say it's pretty decent for a control group, sample of over 2m with no region bias, only issue is age bias. Most 'surveys' in papers etc are far worse than that! I appreciate your efforts bearsy!
Ziggy Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 I is calling them glory hunting cos I is insinuating they is suddenly crawling out the woodwork now they're prem, I is calling them Welsh cos they is Welsh, and I is calling them scum cos I am pretending to hate them for having more fans than us! Sorry if it bummed you out though, I'm not really hating on the Welsh! Fair play. Sorry for being over sensitive!
CB Fry Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Great work. Not a effing clue what the percentages mean, or what any of it means. But brilliant anyway.
saintmatt Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Great work. Not a effing clue what the percentages mean, or what any of it means. But brilliant anyway. Percentages probably mean percentage of the 2m..?
suewhistle Posted 3 July, 2012 Posted 3 July, 2012 Has anyone ever wondered what Bearsy is on? Not a criticism, I should add, just thinking I wouldn't mind a pint or two...:-)
PhilippineSaint Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 To be honest I am surprised they are even 24th. They are above Bolton and Fulham that surprises me! They play FIFA 12 do they not have jobs/school to go to oh!
CB Fry Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Percentages probably mean percentage of the 2m..? Might be because I'm on Tapatalk but all I can see is Man U top with 125.63%. Then Arsenal second with 220.50%. Saints are 180.40%. On my planet those numbers don't mean jack.
ericofarabia Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 They play FIFA 12 do they not have jobs/school to go to oh! .... and probably never go to matches. Plastics.
hutch Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Might be because I'm on Tapatalk but all I can see is Man U top with 1 = 25.63%. Then Arsenal second with 2 = 20.50%. Saints are 18 = 0.40%. On my planet those numbers don't mean jack. Does that help?
Fan The Flames Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 So with a world population nearly 7billion we have 2.7 million fans.
dronskisaint Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Has anyone ever wondered what Bearsy is on? Not a criticism, I should add, just thinking I wouldn't mind a pint or two...:-) O/D'd on Ali G I suspect...!
Rasiak-9- Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Here are Stoke City's attendances for the first half dozen or so games of the 06/07 season when they were a regular c/ship team. If there's one team who's fans get more credit than they deserve, who infuriate me probably even more than Pompey, its bloody Stoke and this nonsense about their johnny-come-lately "fans" playing a part in the fact that an away day against a team of hoofball, time-wasting, cynical bullies is a tough fixture. No ****ing way are they ahead of us in numbers and in terms of proper, loyal supporters.

Some surprises for me like Swansea being above us #gloryhuntingwelshscum Also Arsenal being so much betters than Liverpool? Where am the skatings in this list, 'Bestest fans' an' all that jive?
dune Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 wolves, birmingham, stoke, forest, swansea all above us??
PhilippineSaint Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 wolves, birmingham, stoke, forest, swansea all above us?? As stated earlier for the Skate mob all places with higher un-employement than the south of England so they all have time on there hands to play Fifa 12
buctootim Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 wolves, birmingham, stoke, forest, swansea all above us?? All PL clubs apart from Forest when the majority of those games were sold. Would be interesting to see how many switch allegiance with promotion /relegation since.
Saint_Randell Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 The reason Swansea are so high I believe is the fact you have to pick a team, therefore many who are neutral may have just clicked Swansea because of the football they play etc
jawillwill Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Maybe peoples pickeds Man Utd lots because they is the bests team in the game, so theys picks them to make its easier to wins?
Joensuu Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Down from our 14th place in (16th inc Rangers and Celtic) we got in 2002/3.
Matthew Le God Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Down from our 14th place in (16th inc Rangers and Celtic) we got in 2002/3. Considering we have been in the 2nd and 3rd tiers for the past 7 years, it isn't much of a drop.
Thedelldays Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Considering we have been in the 2nd and 3rd tiers for the past 7 years, it isn't much of a drop. stop it....im sure joensuu is well aware of that
Bearsy Posted 4 July, 2012 Author Posted 4 July, 2012 Do you think this informations might be useful for Cortese? He can look and see if there are clubs with smaller fanbases what gets more than 32K attendances. He will then know if we is needing bigger stadiums! I will send him pm's!
pap Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 I'd definitely say that the neutrals were inflating the big teams a bit, but not to the extent that it would alter the standings in that table. Can't see too many neutrals picking the less glamorous teams though. Ta for the Stoke attendances, Rasiak - very amusing and just shows what a bit of success can do to a club's fortunes.
Bearsy Posted 4 July, 2012 Author Posted 4 July, 2012 just shows what a bit of success can do to a club's fortunes. Dat's what I was thinking when I saw that Chelsea had more than 3 times as many fans as Spurs. I'm pretty sure it was never that way before abramoviches!
pap Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Dat's what I was thinking when I saw that Chelsea had more than 3 times as many fans as Spurs. I'm pretty sure it was never that way before abramoviches! Yeah, but it must be tough for glory hunters. Do they know shame? If they do, you'd think they'd have to move house every time they switched allegiance to avoid embarrassing questions. "I thought you supported Blackburn, innit?", etc, etc. However, they may not know shame.
Bearsy Posted 4 July, 2012 Author Posted 4 July, 2012 (edited) Has anyone ever wondered what Bearsy is on? Not a criticism, I should add, just thinking I wouldn't mind a pint or two...:-) Hi babyface has anyone hit on you yet? I'm just working on a joke bout you getting a taste of bearsy it's gonna be about how you has to swallow my man juices, I'm still working on the details tho cos i don't want it to sound like i drink my own man juices! I will come back on this shortly! Edit: A pint! Is you crazy???? Edited 4 July, 2012 by Bearsy
Bearsy Posted 4 July, 2012 Author Posted 4 July, 2012 Yeah, but it must be tough for glory hunters. Do they know shame? If they do, you'd think they'd have to move house every time they switched allegiance to avoid embarrassing questions. "I thought you supported Blackburn, innit?", etc, etc. However, they may not know shame. Hahaha "However, they may not know shame" is looools! I think the authrities should take steps to stamp out these abuses! I'm saying that at a certain age like 10 or whatever everybody has to state their allegiences and they is having a permanent tattoo of the club's crest emblazened on their forehead. I will pm the fa and let you know what they is saying!
Bearsy Posted 4 July, 2012 Author Posted 4 July, 2012 Fair play. Sorry for being over sensitive! You know it was sweet of you to let me off but when i read it back just now i'm thinking you is right the first time, my defence of saying "well they is Welsh" is no better than JT saying "well he is black". I'm gonna edit my post! They is now just gonna be Scum!
pap Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 lol @ Wigan #41 Not surprising. Wiganers refer to a cutway as a "gennel", they have little need of the word "the" and any spherical ball-based game will take generations to assimilate in a town full of egg-chasers. I actually quite like Wiganers
JPTCount Posted 4 July, 2012 Posted 4 July, 2012 Not surprising. Wiganers refer to a cutway as a "gennel", they have little need of the word "the" and any spherical ball-based game will take generations to assimilate in a town full of egg-chasers. I actually quite like Wiganers ye i know the whole wigan story, not surprising, still funny
