7th best in the division.

Also today was the highest attendance for a league game since 1980.

Best atmosphere in the league. Not many better in the country.

Releasing season tickets this week will be clever. Even with a price increase is a brilliant day out these days.

Long gone are the times you'd turn up with nowhere to drink. No real atmosphere. Minnow opponents.

Just come out of Dhillons. Place is rocking. Literally dancing on the tables. It's a very good matchday experience now.

Beer isn't the best but I love the place. Music and atmosphere is terrific.

Stadium is potentially too small, do we need a new stadium? Maybe SISU were right all along with their 'plans' to build a new one. Laughingly though their 'plan' was around a 15k stadium and some people thought that 'plan' was a good one.

I know today was a bit of a special day but if by chance we did get promoted crowds likely to be similar for one season at least.

Feels like we’re a proper club again.

…and if play offs are to be added, then hopefully we qualify and can push that average to closer to 21k with another attendance like today’s

Those plans for 15000-20000 modular stadiums.

Shudder.

32000 wasn’t a big enough stadium today.

But in the days that a 10,000 crowd would have been massive. We've come such a long way in such a small amount of time.

Just did the percentage (impressed with myself at being able to do this after a few pints!).

Average attendance in 2016-17 (when Robins took over) was 9,118
This year 20,385

124% increase in 6 years. Not bad at all!

What’s that? £3m per year?. Earns his money, Robins.

Don't we need to average 23000 to break even?

Home average for the season so far 24,400

Wonder if we can tip that over 25k by the end of the season. Performances/results are picking up and we've still got some big away followings to come (Leeds, Leicester etc.).
