Sorry if this has been been posted elsewhere already, but our average attendances have been colalted for this season, for league games only:
2012/13 - 10948
2011/12 - (itself a relegation season) - 15118
So a drop by a third from an already low base - nobody should be surprised; if anything, I thought it would have been even lower - at least we managed over 10k average.
Pompey averaged 12k this season and Sheff U 18k...Preston 9k+, and MK 8.5K.
The more depressing trend is that it is yet another season where the average crowd has dropped vs the rpevious year. The two seasons before relegation were:
2010-2011: 16,310
2009-2010: 17,305
I am pretty sure that it has in fact been 5-6 years in a row where the average gate has dropped - I think we can all agree that it does not look good for next season breaking that trend
