For those of us that are interested in play off finals attendances, here are the crowds for all the finals:
2003 Dagenham & Redbridge 2–3 Doncaster Rovers, Britannia Stadium, Stoke-on-Trent 13,092
2004 Aldershot Town 1–1 Shrewsbury Town, Britannia Stadium, Stoke-on-Trent 19,216
2005 Stevenage Borough 0–1 Carlisle United Britannia Stadium, Stoke-on-Trent : 13,422
2006 Halifax Town 2–3 Hereford United Walkers Stadium, Leicester 15,499
2007 Exeter City 1–2 Morecambe Wembley Stadium, London 40,043
2008 Cambridge United 0–1 Exeter City Wembley Stadium, London : 42,511
2009 Cambridge United 0–2 Torquay United Wembley Stadium, London : 35,089
2010 Oxford United 3–1 York City Wembley Stadium, London 42,669
2011 AFC Wimbledon 0–0 Luton Town City of Manchester Stadium, Manchester 18,195
2012 Luton Town 1–2 York City Wembley Stadium, London 39,265
2013 Wrexham 0–2 Newport County Wembley Stadium, London 16,346
2014 Cambridge United 2–1 Gateshead Wembley Stadium, London 19,613
I think Town & Rovers will easily break the record of 42,669. In fact Rovers on their own could take that many, plus what we take.

I really can't see that Bristol Rovers could expect to take 40,000+ !

Ditto. Bristol Rovers took 40k last time although that was in a division above and the first play-off final at the new Wembley. So I reckon we will see around 10k less this time from that. I think it will be around 30k from them and 16k-20k from us.

You wouldnt pay £150 to see your team possibly promoted to the FL?
Spread the cost over 12 months= £3 a week, Cancel your Tv package for the summer? There must be savings you could easily make to allow you to make the trip?

Easy for others to say but there are some things that are hard to put a price on. The first time we played at Wembley with 30,000 town fans was something those present never forget, similarly, to be there when we hopefully return to the football league will be something you and your lad will be able to share the rest of your lives. If you can make those sacrifices and get yourself to Wembley. The more of us that make it the better chance we have.

only an uneducated guess but 35k from Bristol, 18k from Town and 9k in the neutral area would make 62000
That for a non league game is unbelievable and higher that last years Champions League final!!!!

The other thing of note is that the Wembley attendances are twice those played on league grounds. Contradicts what some say about playing them on big club grounds rather than at Wembley.
