Yet again we were in the top 5 average home attendances in league 2 this season for the 3rd year in a row albeit attendances are going down by around of 600 per season on average.
2021-22 2nd highest with 9,790
2022-23 3rd highest with 9,064
2023-24 5th highest with 8,483
We finished with higher averages than all the play off finalists and higher than promoted Mansfield too. We also had more than double the average of 9 clubs.
In such a shit, underperforming season, thats pretty amazing and is way higher than the club currently deserve under the circumstances IMO.
17,547 Bradford City
11,210 Wrexham - P
10,905 Notts County
9,331 Stockport County - C
8,483 Swindon Town
7,893 AFC Wimbledon
7,426 Mansfield Town - P
7,090 Doncaster Rovers - PO
6,855 Franchise - PO
6,436 Gillingham
6,354 Grimsby Town
6,306 Tranmere Rovers
5,618 Walsall
5,090 Crewe Alexandra - PO
4,336 Newport County
4,177 Colchester United
4,002 Morecambe
3,804 Barrow
3,557 Crawley Town - PO

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

It absolutely blows my mind that nobody super rich has bought Bradford. That must be the most underachieving club in the entire country.

Absolutely, massive fanbase in Britains 4th largest city by population(including neighbours Leeds). Although they only pay something like £249 per season ticket thats still an amazing turnout, even if for many games less than half actually turned up in person. Even if we sold season tickets at the same reduced rate we wouldnt get anywhere near that figure. |

£198 for a season ticket. They've sold about 13,500 for next season in the early bird window. It's £300 to buy onw noe which must still be among the cheapest in the league. |

Take away our away following to these clubs and their figures would naturally be less. Not significantly but less none the less. |

Also worth noting that the Midland/Northern clubs have less distance to travel so get more away fans attending.

True, also doesn’t help that we were amongst the most expensive ticket for away fans. |

We had the 10th average away following this season, so whilst this has some truth, there are other teams to which this applies more. 1552 Wrexham 1258 Mansfield Town 1163 Stockport County 1126 Notts County 1093 Bradford City 867 Grimsby Town 695 Doncaster Rovers 687 Gillingham 679 Walsall 669 Swindon Town 657 Tranmere Rovers 597 AFC Wimbledon 566 Crewe Alexandra 498 Franchise 414 Barrow 355 Newport County 349 Colchester United 337 Morecambe 245 Sutton United 225 Accrington Stanley 223 Crawley Town 187 Forest Green Rovers 186 Salford City 173 Harrogate Town |

I can't believe Gillingham and Grimsby average more away fans than us. Thought we'd be top 6 easily. Still I suppose Grimsby are a bit more central than us

Understandable when you consider most of L2 is northern, plus our performances… |
