Record In Sight

[Killerkline]

Great effort by the club and fans are responding.

Their stadiums aren’t big enough to beat it. Theoretically only Southend could beat the current record (as well as Notts)

According to this search, four current NL grounds have the capacity to beat it:

1. Meadow Lane home to Notts County 19,588
2. The Racecourse Ground home to Wrexham 15,500
3. The Shay home to FC Halifax Town 14,081
4. Roots Hall home to Southend United 12,392

ps I hope we break the record, then lose it to Forest!

From Notts' Twitter...

Forget 10,000. We're going for THE RECORD!

Buy your tickets online now and help us achieve a crowd of over 11,085 - the highest ever attendance in the@TheVanaramaNL!

To cope with demand for Solihull and Rochdale tickets, we're opening up the main ticket office on Meadow Lane for the rest of this week

2 more days and whatever we can sell on Matchday to get another 1,000 or so then to break the record. C'mon, we can do this!!!

Was the record set by also offering cheap seats? Let's hope we beat it anyway.

I'm bringing 3 others so it all helps.

Halifax has a capacity of 10,401 from what I can see
Wrexham has a stand out of use. They state capacity of 10,500 on their website.

Looks like we may be some way off non league attendance record...

I’ve seen mention of 16,000+ turning up for Dulwich Hamlet v Nunhead in the Isthmian League in October 1931. It’s referred to here and here but I can’t find anything more official.” We can, Michael. Dulwich Hamlet’s programme editor, John Lawrence, has been in touch to confirm what appears to be the largest attendance we can find for a non-league domestic league game in England. “Yes, there was a crowd of 16,254 paid to see the first game at our old Champion Hill Stadium on 10 October 1931 for Dulwich Hamlet v Nunhead. It was an Isthmian League match and the result was a 1-1 draw.”

This is the info I got. Seems up to date so maybe part of their ground is closed, although their chairman sounds a bit of a tit!

Full name FC Halifax Town
Nickname(s) The Shaymen
Founded 2008; 13 years ago
Ground The Shay
Capacity 14,061 (5,830 seated)
Chairman David Bosomworth
Manager Pete Wild
League National League
2020–21 National League, 10th of 22

You are right about Wrexham, their Kop which holds 5,000 is described as "currently decommissioned". I suppose if they reopen it they have the potential to beat the record.
