Bradford City lead the way by quite some distance, with their average attendance of 16,885 at the Northern Commercials Stadium over 7,000 more than second-placed Notts County.
Both newly promoted sides have been supported well this campaign, but it is Chesterfield who come out on top when looking at League Two attendances this season. Their figure of 8,049 is enough to secure them third spot in the table above.
At the opposite end of the table, it is Accrington Stanley's Wham Stadium which currently holds the lowest attendance trophy, whose figure of 2,457 is marginally lower than that of Harrogate Town.
Highest ever League Two attendance
You may not be surprised to learn that the record attendance ever achieved in a League Two game was during a play-off final between Bristol Rovers and Shrewsbury Town at Wembley Stadium.
There was a crowd of 61,589 supporters at the ground on that day as Bristol Rovers secured a 3-1 victory over their opponents and promotion to League One as a result.
It will likely be some time before that record is beaten.
