    The Championship is the 6th biggest football league in the world.

    1. Premiership (UK)
    2. Spain La Liga
    3. Italy Serie A
    4. Germany Bundesliga
    5. France
    6. Championship (UK)

    The richest football match in the world is the championship play off final.

    It is called that due to the difference in revenue a club will receive the following season if they win it.

    From wipkedia

    he Football League Championship was introduced for the 2004-2005 season. It replaced the Football League First Division.

    In 2004-05, the Football League Championship announced a total attendance of 9.8 million, which it said was the fourth highest total attendance for a European football division, behind the FA Premier League (12.88m), Spain's Primera división (11.57m) and Germany's Bundesliga (10.92m), but beating Italy's Serie A (9.77m) and France's Ligue 1 (8.17m).

    its a great stat, but of course there are

    a lot more games played in the championship than the other top leagues, but is still vastly superior to the division Swansea are in
