Don't forget that the US is also a lot bigger and universities are more of a community than in the UK. US campuses dwarf anything here and by the same token you get more money there. Can't imagine a university here having more funds to spend on sport than a football club, plus the football club is a bigger foundation of local community here.
In fairness, we're a bit weird here, most European clubs are sport clubs with a multitude of teams represented, like Barcelona will have basketball, handball as well as football. Even volleyball.
There are some boss videos on Youtube of PAOK and AEK fans at basketball games going mental. Lech Poznan get hundreds turning out for their Under-12s!
