Low Attendances in League Two

The attendances in League Two this evening were nearly all below average. However it looks as though the drop at Hereford was particularily low.

Our tables show firstly tonight's attendance for those home clubs who played this evening and secondly average attendance to date (not including tonight). Thirdly a comparison of the two figures.

Hereford: 1367 - 2486 - 55% (of the average gate)
Aldershot: 2453 - 2945 - 83%
Bury: 2930 - 2854 - 103% (Bradford were the visitors)
Port Vale: 4458 - 4891 - 91%
Rotherham: 3234 - 3658 - 88%

Tonight's attendance at Edgar Street was exactly the same as the last home game which was against MK Dons in the Paint Trophy on December 15th.

Meanwhile, for the record, Hereford United's record low league attendance was just 867 (vs Kingstonian, Nationwide Conference, 18th April 2001)
