Average League 2 attendance last season was 4,427. Stanley's average of 1,664 was 37% of that average, and placed us 72nd out of 72 league teams.
11 Conference teams bettered that average, two of which (Eastleigh and Woking (of blessed memory)) are not demoted ex-league teams.
In the absence of a sugar daddy (which, personally, I think could be a poisoned chalice; ask fans of Maidstone Utd or Wimbledon etc, etc, or meat-eaters at Forest Green!) we must console ourselves that being able to watch League football with Stanley is a miracle in these days of 'soccer.com'.
