Pompey fans travel the country week-in, week-out in support of the Blues and are set to amass a further 8,000 more miles on the road next season in all competitions.
Fans pack the stands at Fratton Park on a regular basis, too, with crowds of more than 17,000 often seen at PO4.
But what percentage of the city’s 208,000 population actually attends Pompey home matches on a game day?
With the help of @_The72 on Twitter, we’ve managed to work that out and compare the figure to the rest of League One.
Here’s what was discovered, with the 2021 census used.
