Hard to know but probably around 600-700 at a guesstimate. By the way, your first match was also mine
Have you been to in your lifetime?
Since my first game v tranmere in 1973 (4-1) I estimate I have seen 800 notts matches home and away.
I am sure many of you on here can at least double that 👍😁

Probably a couple of hundred back in the day. Was a regular home and away in the 90's for a few years.
That's such a coincidence Swale. You weren't the young lad in the duffel coat and tartan flares sat next to me in the main stand??😁
I did work it out once and IIRC Rotherham home in the Munto season was my 450th, the vast majority at home. Would have loved to have gone away when I was still a kid in the early-mid 1980s but my dad was never up for it. Happily I did manage to get to grounds such as the Baseball Ground, Highfield Road, Millmoor etc. before they got knocked down.
Longest I went without missing a home league match (or FA Cup tie) was 11 years.
Do you remember the chairman back then, Charles Barnes? He'd held that position since July 1935. Len Machin took over in late 1956 and that seems to have signalled a swift decline. One of the directors, Fred Williamson, was publicly demanding Machin step down in 1959 and Williamson eventually replaced him in March 1964 but he proved to be an even bigger disaster and only lasted two years before Hopcroft took over.
