The attendance drops recorded last week have continued as the second half of League One played their second home match.
The opening day home sides saw a 15% drop and ten of the twelve sides recording figures under last season's averages. The second half of the clubs played their second home game yesterday recording a 12% drop on their first match, and nine of the twelve clubs recording totals under last season's average. The three to record higher gates were Cheltenham, who had over 1,600 visiting supporters at both games but are only 800 over last season's average, Brighton, and Stockport.
Total attendance for the 12 clubs yesterday was 84,243 against 95,027 for the games played on August 16th. Across all 24 clubs the gates dropped 13% from the first to second game, and 19 sides recorded gates under last season's average.
Only three gates in the Football League were lower than the Bulls. Both Chester, recording 1,295, and Morecambe, recording 1,571, had their lowest League gates since gaining promotion.
