615 Lincoln at Morecambe, including many in fancy dress, for a nothing game.

Good turnout, that.

Bolton 2-1 Fleetwood - 20,561 (581 Fleetwood)

990 Grecians cheering them on despite everything

Sorry, 919 apparently. Bloke on the PA had had a few shandies

391 Cheltenham fans at Wycombe (total was 5,188)

I have been looking at how Bolton attendances have grown this season. Despite the likes of Accrington, Forest Green, Cheltenham only bring a couple of hundred we have averaged about 21.500 since Christmas. The very competitive season ticket prices have helped in that we sold 12,070 in the early bird period but the amount of matchday sales has been impressive. Play offs confirmed and of course I want us to go up but I won't be too devastated if we don't make it as L1 next season will be great with Blackpool, Orient, Wigan etc joining us , possibly Stockport and at least one of 2 big clubs )Wednesday/Derby remaining in this league. And we will win more in this league. Counteract that though with being resigned to losing Connor Bradley and James Trafford, we have a small chance of keeping them on loan for another season if we get promoted, They are good but not quite yet in the £20 million bracket that Masi suggested, Stranger things have happened though with the madness of the Premiership hoarders, particularly with what Chelsea have wasted

 

[HutchECFC]

Morecambe have asked for the extra 600 terrace tickets for next week, they seem pretty confident they'll sell them.

With all our away fixtures done just done a back of a fag packet calculation and our away average for the season is 1024. Not too bad overall given how the season has turned out. Figure probably propped up a little by over 3k at Hillsborough but then suppose you could balance that out with low numbers at Ipswich and Wycombe.

Excellent effort, Ipswich was 294 on a Tuesday and Argyle 400 on a Friday but otherwise we’ve took good numbers most games, Wednesday on a Thursday 3100 plus and would have taken more Derby had they given us the 3200 they gave most teams.

Considering we have been awful mostly on the road with a couple of points since New Years Day away from home that’s good going.

 

[Bamber Gashead]

748 GAS at Shrewsbury in a total of 5949.

 

[bigfatron]

MK Dons v Barnsley 9,579 per BBC, FYI

 

[NewburyWanderer]

2139 Barnsley at MK (MK official website).

Pleased they've decided to release the figures!

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Looks like away allocations for playoffs are being restricted to 2,000.

 

[Laker]

Our website just states “1500+ away fans” at Burton on Wednesday. Burton haven’t got anything more specific on their website.

That’s a good as it gets. The only place for good info is bafc police Twitter. But they do not always post. I’d say 1500 was about accurate.

Cheers,yeah just going with 1,500. Frustrating as it gets with Burton for some reason

We have always been shite. I’ve tried before to get sense out of it from the club and never got a straight answer. It’s pathetic really.

 

[djs]

And quite deliberate as well. As I've said before, the first time I went there I went in behind the goal. At half time I wanted to wander around to the North stand but was stopped by a very friendly steward, who quoted health and safety laws, saying that the club had to know exactly how many people were in each individual area of the ground at all times. So given that they do know it, why not publish the figure, especially as the police and the efl are told?

While I am on the topic of Burton, looking forward to going over on Sunday to see MKDungs getting relegated. Don't let the football world down you Brewers.

 

[Laker]

Yes it’s important Burton do their bit on Sunday. For the good of football we need to stay up.

We are talking a good game in preparation- manager is fired up to win and try and finish 13th if fleetwood lose. So perhaps we are not on the beach yet.
Might do you a favour.

 

[valefan16]

Really can’t call it, any of the three could win and have a winnable games, there’s none that are bankers against.

Cambridge should win but they have the pressure of needing to win, MK usually are a bit more solid that the other two and Morecambe of course are flying at the moment.

I think Cambridge and Morecambe will get wins tomorrow and MK draw.

Well there wasn't much football on show when you played us in the FA Cup last season, and surrounded the ref to change his decision, so excuse me if I don't lose much sleep over your demise...

Yeah that decision was a joke. I don’t remember the surrounding of the ref but I do remember it was the linesman who gave the ridiculous offside decision. Meh, it happens - we’ve had enough payback for that this season.

Fair enough. I think we will definitely get something from the game tomorrow so you may have a chance
