Pardon my ignorance, but please define 'factor' in this context.

How does London get a population of 7m on this list(the population of Greater London)....yet Manchester's population is just that for the City of Manchester - somewhat distorts things. As does the very high percentage of students from elsewhere living within the City of Manchester, and have never been to a match in their life.
I'd wager that very very few people actually living within the City of Manchester go to watch either club -but only whisper that, or we won't be able to rip the rags for not being from Manchester
