City foxes usually look healthier than rural ones!That’s a well-fed fox!
Six games with over 2000. Average home gate this year is 1607, apparently. That's only slightly fewer than Ebbsfleet, and more than six National League teams and all but four in the National League South.For comparison:
Gills vs Leyton Orient (JPT) 1,388
Accrington Stanley away 2,383
Salford away 2,995
Barrow away 3,044
Harrogate away 3,133
FGR away 3,265
Morecambe away 3,408
Crewe away 3,427
Take into account some sizeable Gills followings or even just the base few hundred, and it makes Chatham’s attendance even more impressive. I think they got 2,500 or so against Dulwich Hamlet mid-season.

Horsham had quite a large allocation yesterday, and Dulwich are the best supported team in the division, but at most games I've seen the away following has been 20-50, so Chatham get most of the credit for their attendances. There is certainly potential there.
As you mention, there have been some impressive recent attendances in the non-league game. Just to add another, 7th tier Macclesfield have a play-off game upcoming v Marine to contest a berth in the 24/25 6th tier (NLN). That game sold out in six hours with all 5600 tickets purchased.Six games with over 2000. Average home gate this year is 1607, apparently.

Was it Macclesfield that had Robbie Savage and a local businessman at the helm? I watched a bbc programme on it. Are they still there?It would be Macc’s 3rd consecutive promotion after getting relegated from the EFL and demoted to North West Counties league. They barely averaged 2000 in the EFL and their crowds went up to over 3000 n step 8. Not sure where all the extra fans are coming fans, but winning is certainly working.
Yep believe so, I'm not a fan of Savage per se but he really seems to have got involved in a major way at Macc so full credit to him for that. They went quite far in the FA Trophy this season as well, certainly a better side than their level suggests.Was it Macclesfield that had Robbie Savage and a local businessman at the helm?

Would agree about Savage, however he did come across well in the documentary. Even running onto the terrace to break up a punch up between rival fans iirc.Yep believe so, I'm not a fan of Savage per se but he really seems to have got involved in a major way at Macc so full credit to him for that.

Savage follows Wrexham, enough said.Yep believe so, I'm not a fan of Savage per se but he really seems to have got involved in a major way at Macc so full credit to him for that. They went quite far in the FA Trophy this season as well, certainly a better side than their level suggests.
He was born there I believe.Savage follows Wrexham, enough said.
Congrats to NL bound Boston United who won (1-2) the NLN play-off final v Brackley today. Boston has a new ground and get good attendance figures.
The NLS Final is on Monday, between Worthing and Braintree Town. Like today`s Final, it`s covered live by TNT Sports.
Tomorrow (also live on TV) is the NL Final between Solihull and Bromley.
One of my pals played cricket with Cody at coggleshall (braintree). I’m happy to report that Cody is a good eggI'm hoping to see Cody this weekend he as far as I know still playing for Witham who are at Bury at Edmunds both clubs would rank higher than most if not all of the Kent club sides .I believe the East Anglian premier is the third highest ranked competition in club cricket.
If thats the case, fair play to him.He was born there I believe.
