The Stockport game is always the go-to in discussions like this - perhaps because the performance was as bad as the attendance - but the lowest home league crowd in living memory* came a year earlier against Swindon - it was almost 2,000 lower then Stockport and only just broke through the 7,000 barrier at 7,086.
Only those 7,000 have seen Gerry Creaney score (I was not one of them). Perhaps that is its own reward.
* Apologies to those who can remember the early 50s. |
Wow, I’d be interested to know if anyone was there for that. Hats off to the 7k true hard core! I certainly wasn’t. I notice we won 3-2 and followed it up with a 2-1 win over Port Vale on the Saturday in front of 9,491, officially. |  | | |

Freezing cold, empty stadium, mugged by a side managed by an ex-nodge player that played the ugliest football ever and we were impotent.
The only matches I can recall even close to the same ballpark were at Grimsby, Bolton and Anfield. |
I was at Grimsby. Shambles of a team and I couldn't even be bothered enough to boo it off.
Refuse to believe there's been another game that bad. |  | | |

I would have been there for that game. Never missed a home games since I started going pretty much so would have been there. Missed a few in the last few years through work though. | | | |

I recall a Friday night mid season friendly probably around 1996 time against a Scottish side. Maybe St Johnstone.
I’ve got no idea why they had a friendly at that stage of the season but there weren’t many in the ground that night. | | | |

Falkirk, maybe?

Looks like the purpose of the game was to give Andy Millen some action and to see if David Weir was worth a punt. [Post edited 18 Apr 2023 15:18]

And the next tier is the West Brom 10,000. |
Burnley under Jewell (lost 4-0) rarely gets a mention but that was miserable. | | | |
