Slowly and steadily, Jamshedpur FC's Red Miners are making a mark

At the home of Indian Super League (ISL) club Jamshedpur FC, a stadium popularly known as 'the Furnace', over 10,000 people turned up to watch a pre-season friendly between the Men of Steel & Real Kashmir FC in September 2019.

Those are remarkable attendance figures, considering how other ISL clubs, who are known for their home attendance numbers, have suffered a huge drop in the number of stadium-goers.

During the season, only ATK registered a higher average attendance for home games than Jamshedpur, whose official supporters' club Red Miners made sure they turned up in large numbers for every game.
