The bottom 7 average L2 gates.
Stevenage 3,427
Barrow 3,399
Sutton United 3,049
Crawley Town 2,896
Salford City 2,856
Rochdale 2,818
Harrogate Town 2,104

Bottom 4 in L1
Fleetwood Town 3,403
Burton Albion 3,332
Accrington Stanley 3,276
Forest Green Rovers 3,033

With 2 up 2 down, most traditional league clubs with decent gates return in no-time, only Wrexham have got stuck for any serious length of time.

We're wasting our energy hoping for 3 up as an exit strategy anytime soon.
I don’t get your point? It’s not a highest average attendance competition haha. I’m not really arguing on the basis of an exit strategy, we’ll be fine either way, but because it’s blindingly obvious it’s what should happen if you look at it objectively.
