In season 1977/78 we achieved our record average attendance of 25,264. So will this record be broken this season? Before today’s announcement about the North end corners I thought we’d be close but perhaps fall just short. So what do we think now? Poll to follow
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Will our attendance record be smashed this season?

What was the capacity back then? Percentages filled are interesting.

Unless we are in the top 2 I cannot see it. 22000 season ticket holders, mean 20000 will turn up on average. An average of 2000 away fans & 1000 pay on the gate = 23000 tops.
I am sure the club will be very happy with such an average.

Think maybe 23600 odd,if we do a palace and count season ticket holders as there every match we'll smash the record

The 1970's average was the declared to HMRC stat.
Bamber let many thousand extra into those swaying terraces during that era. It was commonplace then.
Will never know the true, but incredibly high, numbers in the Goldstone then.

Just a few weeks in and isn't it clear that the record is going to be MASSACRED this season. I'll go for an AVERAGE of 26,895.
Great bounce.
It will be smashed.
