Every figure below is drawn from the 278 of 318 played matches that carry a recorded gate (87.4%), spanning 1957–2026. A match with no figure is left out rather than counted as an empty ground — the archive stores an unknown gate as a zero, and averaging those in would quietly drag every number on this page down.

Average gate per season, newest first; each bar is scaled against the best season shown. A season missing from this list has no recorded gate at all, which is not the same as a season nobody attended.

When We Draw a Crowd

By Day of the Week
Tuesday ×4247,184
Wednesday ×8748,855
Thursday ×748,627
By Kickoff Time
Afternoon (15:00–17:59) ×446,250
Evening (18:00–19:59) ×4344,325
Night (20:00 and later) ×5752,135
Kickoff times cover only the 104 recorded home gates that carry a time as well as a date — most of the archive stores midnight where the time is simply not known, and those are excluded rather than filed under a small-hours kickoff that never happened. The day of the week, by contrast, is trustworthy on every row.
