2951 if you mean the Doncaster game (that included 423 from Doncaster)

Not a bad crowd considering where we are in the league and awful home form

Fleetwood v Afc Wimbledon only attracted 2100

Pre match I usually sit with a couple of others in the Local Choice suite usually with a couple of Scouts /Match assers and at the Accrington game the subject of attendances in non league was discussed

Evidently Oldham are getting gates of 6000 on a regular basis. I've no way to?confirm that figure but if true I wonder what sort of gate we would get if relegation did happen.

Oldham got 5181 at home to Maidenhead on Tuesday evening

I think we would probably get about 1600 in the National League unless we started well then we might get a few more

Why compare us to a random former Premier league team. Our crowds are fantastic all things considered

To be fair, I took it as an indication of what we'd be up against in the National League, if we were relegated. 'Easily' bouncing back simply wouldn't happen.

Some supporters thought coming back down to League 2 would see us challenge towards the top, unfortunately as each season goes by we have another squad rebuild to contend with

Just a question ...Would the National League accept us with all our ongoing issues ??

Unless something has changed, the agreement for automatic promotion & relegation between 'Conference' and Football League demands that they do take any relegated team, no matter how financially insecure they are. Only if we reform as a new, 'phoenix' club, can we be refused. But that may have changed.
