I'm a member at Schalke and received an email from them yesterday about some slight changes to the membership conditions and in the email they mentioned that there are 160,000 members now at Schalke so yes I'd agree this chart is quite accurate!

Hi I'm new here and I am a club member at Schalke. I'm from England but started losing interest in English football about 15 years ago due to the high ticket prices and lack of atmosphere and started watching Bundesliga on TV and found myself routing for Schalke. Can't really explain the reason other than I'm from Newcastle and it is twinned with the city of Gelesenkirchen and also there are some similarities with the football clubs. Both have huge fan bases but don't win many trophies! Basically I enjoy being miserable! Anyway looking forward to the discussion on here
