How Notts County supporters can top one table next season

Notts County are preparing for their maiden voyage into the National League next season which will bring a whole set of different challenges on the pitch.

But what can they expect in terms of attendances?

Figures for the National League average attendances show that Leyton Orient finished champions with 5,444 as they clinched their place back in the EFL.

Wrexham were runners-up with 5,145 while Notts’ derby rivals Chesterfield came third with 4,504, despite a disappointing season.

But at the bottom end of the table, Braintree attracted an average attendance of just 678 with Boreham Wood not faring much better with 717.

Notts were one of the best supported clubs in League Two last season with an average attendance of 7,357 which placed them third in the table despite a terrible season off the pitch.

Should that volume of support continue, Notts would certainly replace Orient at the top of the table.

The average attendances for last season in the National League are as follows:
