The funsters

[Kdyteejay2]

The grounds have shrunk.

It's only relevant from then as it's those teams highest ever crowds, Uniteds highest ever crowd was almost 60 years ago. Crowd averages now outside the big 4 are way lower but the grounds are much smaller.

Yeah, United's from 60 years ago doesn't mean anything nowadays either. I don't think you'll find anyone disagree what the fun were the biggest club in the city many years ago. 🤔

I was at a game at Tanny about the early 70s, I'm sure Davie Wilson was playing for United. Against Dumbarton, midweek game, rain lashing down, only about 3000 at the game but in the second half everyone in the standing parts of the ground moved into the shed. The North terrace and behind the other goal completely emptied as the rain battered down. You could move from end to end back then, ok for little games but a bit feisty when the old firm visited.

According to this book both Dundee and Aberdeens highest ever averages were in the 1950s, prob Hearts and Hibs the same, will have to check. It says Uniteds highest almost 40 years ago, just over 12,000. It goes Rangers, Celtic, Hibs, Hearts, Dundee, Aberdeen in that order but now with Celtic getting over 50,000 every week they would move to number 1 as the book is about 15 years old. United actually come in at 15th with that 12,000 average average. Dundee only averaged just over 16,000 when winning the league, United averaging just over 10000 when winning theirs.

I don't think 12830 is "just over" 12000 not to split hairs

Also these impressive averages were a full country thing in the wake of ww2 ending etc

Dundee being a prime example, in the season before the war, they averaged less than 4000, less than little (at the time) Dundee Utd

Then suddenly are 20k plus after the war

More modern times we cannot ignore the 2,800 average in 1996/97
