The English Championship may be a long way off the Premier League in terms of reputation and match quality but the attendances up and down the division aren’t too inferior.
Just over a dozen matches have been played by all 24 clubs during the 2023/24 season so far and a total of more than 3.4 million spectators have shown their faces, averaging 22,784 per fixture.
