Has anybody got the overall average home league attendance, including away fans? Last season was our highest average for 20 years, just wondering how we compared this season.

We averaged 5,830 over the season (14th - just above the Posh)

Good to see us above p*sh in the league. And I see MK continue to have an utterly embarrassing away following.

That's because many neutrals will look at a few things before going to a game.

1/ standard of opposition
2/ yes, recent results
3/ and yes, position in the league

It is expensive to watch football, but as a season ticket holder I know entertaining football is important to me. I also want wins and to be at the top of the table - not much to ask  Grin

If the team were 18th but playing like last season, I wouldn't be happy. But what I can see is a team on the front foot attempting to win games this gives me hope that things will change at some point.

Very true.....

The standard of our opposition is always going to be pretty poor this season.....getting the waverers off their bums to pay £22 or £24 to see us play Cheltenham is a difficult task!

The season ticket holders will be there regardless, but anyone looking at our league position and the fact we haven't won a game at home this season, haven't kept a clean sheet in any game home or away, and still with a fair bit of negative publicity in the air surrounding the club, all of that will outweigh the "more attractive" football on offer.

I don't know why I used the word 'neutrals'. What I should have said is non season ticket holder/casual fan.

To be fair, just from our brigade/circle, three or four on holiday. Always think it sounds a bit of an excuse, but multiply around our fanbase and reckon could account for half the 600 at least.

Having said that, I won't be going to the home game against Cheltenham next Saturday...sorry!  Grin

Pretty much comparable dates for the first three home league games of the season......(holidays, lack of schoolkids etc)

5053 home fans per game average 2016/17
5135 home fans per game average 2017/18
4470 home fans per game average 2018/19

Relegation seems to have cost us about 10% of our fans.
