Mick Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 so they have never averaged 50 thousand? No, the best average they've had was in 1950 when they averaged 47,785. Edit. They've averaged less than 17,000, 30 times to our 11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 On the very first day of the Premier League, we had the highest attendance even though we were in Division 1 and had finished 5th bottom the previous season. never knew that stat, cant remember who we played? West ham? maybe- only missed bristol City at home that season the crowd was locked out by around 12-30. Beat Southend 3-2. 28,545 at that game and we beat that number quite a few times that season. http://www.nufc.com/html/1992-93.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Venison I didn't realise how good a footballer Bracewell was until watching him regularly. Back on attendances, for a long time and before the rise of ManU we had the record for the highest ever average attendance in English football, 59K plus and achieved in the old second division iirc. Amazingly, and no doubt deleted from mackem history books, it was before 1992. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about that 49,000, I do remember reading something about a record attendance for a reserves game but can't remember who it was against or what the attendance was. A bit of trivia which may or may not be out of date. We held the record for the two highest attendances for games abandoned in English football, 63,000 against Swansea and 54,500 against Forest.
