The Hillians have averaged 370 this season, a massive increase from the 232 average of the season before.

Delighted Hillians General Manager John Rattle was quick to praise the Hillians increasing fan base.

“This season has been special for so many reasons - cup runs, non-league day, improved facilities and a winning team have all been huge factors in the increase in attendances.”

He continued “Everyone at the club have been overwhelmed with how the town has voted with their feet and supported the team at the Green Elephants Stadium this year”. “A special thank you to those fans who have travelled to away games too. We must have had at least 150 supporters at Carshalton FC when we clinched the title - a special day. Hopefully, another big crowd will be here to see us lift the trophy on Saturday.”
