Saturday's crowd is a record breaker for FC United

Saturday’s attendance of 3,432 for the AFC Fylde game was a record breaker as it meant that FC United had recorded the highest aggregate attendance for the National League North (previously Conference North) in the league’s history.

It’s also worth noting that the largest three crowds in non-league on Saturday were held by fan-owned clubs - Hereford in the FA Vase, Wrexham in the National League and FC United in the National League North.

Our crowd figure on Saturday also pushed our average attendance to over 3,307. See http://www.thelinnets.co.uk/turnstile.php?s=2013

FC United’s attendances this season have seen a 53% increase on last season’s average of 2,155. FC United are now the fourth best supported team in the top four steps of the non-league, behind Tranmere, Wrexham and Grimsby.
