Difficult what reports to believe on tickets purchased but if there are only 67 Cov fans attending the Northampton game and that Bristol are not running many coaches or mini buses (according to reports) could this game have the lowest ever league 1 attendance
Does anyone know the lowest ever league 1 attendance?

According to Talksport:

"The lowest attendance in Football League history is actually held by a club that no longer exists; Thames AFC, a club based in East London that went bust in 1932. No wonder, considering they could only attract 469 people to watch a Division Three South game with Luton on 6 December 1930".

We could be on course to set a new record.

remember we've sold 300 season tickets so they'll be included in the attendance even if they don't turn up

According to the Football League, the lowest attendances ever (below 700) were recorded by the following clubs:

Thames
Gateshead
Rochdale
Scarborough
Ashington
Chester City
Durham City
Wigan Borough
Darlington

Rochdale is the only one now playing league football.

I don't think it'll be Sunday as I imagine Bristol City to bring a fair few, but certainly games against teams such as Colchester or Stevenage will smash it

Skybluepm2 is possibly right. Bristol might bring about 800/1,200. So you might be looking at maybe 1,700.
But very soon after it will plummet to about 500. Even less. In January, if it survives til then, you'll be looking at 250.
I have nothing but disgust for any city fan that goes.

A bleak midweek game in the freezing
Cold against someone who brings a
Handful of away fans should do it.

JPT would be interesting too. Could go down to just double figures with the right draw?

Do SISU actually care how many turn up. Their priority now must be to offload the club to a rich probably foreign investor and just tread water till then.

More away fans than homes fan at every city game played at sixfields this season I reckon. I wonder if this has ever happened before?
