1000+?

[Irishadrian]

And Maidenhead are up at Hartlepool on Saturday!

[Reading Rebel]

If we can get 800 + against Hampton I see no reason why we can't break the 1000 barrier against Torquay and Dulwich.

 

I'll take a stab at 1,100 against Torquay.

[GlenSTFC]

Certainly would expect 1000+ for Torquay but I doubt it against Dulwich as they don’t travel in that big numbers, maybe a hundred or so.

[Mark44]

I agree it will be over 1,000 and think it will be comfortable too

 

We got 866 against Hampton, lets say Hampton had the 66, that's 800 Slough, opening day goes someway to inflating but non opener its maybe 750 Slough

We had over 600 on a midweek game and won our second on the bounce. 

I reckon with interest as its Torquay game would see at least 850 Slough

Also, S4K (toddler and infant football team) which my oldest is part of are being mascots and I know this will bring 40-50 new faces

 

Torquay will bring 300+

 

So I will have a stab at an attendance of 1,224

[GlenSTFC]

These sort of games really should attract 1,000 home fans but I suppose being school holidays it can affect it. Plus local non and league matches will make a difference too. I’ll guess at 1,125.

[Irishadrian]

I think Mark44 had touched on the most important factor. Playing at a higher level was always going to increase gates but this game against a perceived top team come after two consecutive victories Nothing increases gates like success!

[Irishadrian]

And of course if kirk and his relatives turn up we are looking at 2000!

[Reading Rebel]

The Dulwich game is on August Bank Holiday Monday which tends to increase attendances so I'm sure Dulwich will bring more than a hundred or so.

Assuming there’s a good train service running out of London.

[Jafooly]

Last seasons second qualifying FA Cup match vs Dulwich brought in 712.

My best mate growing up in a small cul-de-sac in Langley was a Torquay fan. Remember going with him to watch them at Wembley in the Division 4 Playoff Final against Blackpool in the early 90s. So strange to see the teams in the same league competing against each other.

I don't know the chap's name but there is a regular Slough supporter now, who's also supports Torquay.

 

I wonder who he will be supporting on Saturday?

[Bernie Gogan]

You mean Eddie, always the referee's best friend!

Not to be confused with me because I think Referees and their officials do a great job.

I also doubt if Dulwich will be 1000+ (unless we win well the games prior) All Dulwich games currently are away games unless/until they sort their well known problems and most supporters have a finite amount to spend.

[REBEL MATTERS]

Taking into account 5 premier league clubs were playing in London on Saturday, 1,200 turn out was brilliant. Just imagine had there been less premier league games on Saturday. Bravo rebels.

[GlenSTFC]

Takes our home average upto an impressive 920* and for you saddo’s who love numbers that’s a 38% increase on our total average home attendance last season.

*Not looked but can only think the likes of Torquay United, Woking, Billericay Town, Chelmsford City, Wealdstone and Dartford would have a higher average.

Pretty impressive 'stab' there Mark.

Strangely correct  Glennie.

 

Torquay 1885

 

Woking  1586

 

Bill & Ricay  1097

 

Dartford  1058

 

Wealdstone  1036

 

Chelmsford  1024

 

Slough  920

 

 

If we were in the Connie North we would be 14th.

Blimey didn’t think we’d be that low in the North, I remember a time when the Northern equivalent was very poorly supported but these days there’s a few powerhouses up there.

[Reading Rebel]

Lot more teams on 1000+ in the Connie North.
