Wrexham would be expected to bring around 1,000 based on last seasons numbers, although that was a BH. Barrow, playing on a BH and still being in a dogfight with Harrogate would maybe have brought another 1,000. Aldershot end of season game nothing to play for, probably 200. So probably nearer the £44k mark.

However, the Barrow game may have sparked a bit more local interest, but hey ho we will never know, but it no doubt put a big dent in Mr B's budget forecast/cashflow

  

Wrexham would have been around the 500 mark but Barrow would have been over 1000.

I think Harrogate will probably be the favourites for the final. No chance for County to level the playing field with a stronger support either, as presumably it will be behind closed doors.

If Harrogate get promoted then they are going to play their first few home games outside of Harrogate until the new pitch is laid. Last time they played at Doncaster.

It sums up football that the oldest professional club in the world have a play off game against a team who's ground capacity is lower than County's average attendance. That only happens because Notts are the epitomy of a mismanaged football club. Years of clown like behaviour have got them here. They should win of course but they are a team of overpaid journeymen versus a team of overpaid non leaguers.   It will be tight,  and it will be a sad day for the league if Harrogate pull it off. The least followed hobbyist club of league history. They would make teams like  Crawley and Forest Green look big.
