That's how many were there on Friday night, given the smaller away section afforded Crewe.Surely that's the most Rovers fans that have been in the Keepmoat/Eco-Power for a game since it opened? Which in turn, by my reckoning, would make it the biggest attendance of Rovers fans for a game – aside from the finals at Wembley and Cardiff – since the Liverpool FA Cup replay in 1974.

The Swansea fans had the smaller section in the North East corner.

Yeah a bit more digging and there were also about 500 more home fans than we had on Friday at our last home game of the 2012-13 season against Brentford.And most likely (given the overall attendance figure) the number of home fans at the game against Palace in April 2011 when the club made it free entry will have exceeded Friday.

The last Away game in 2012/13 season was at Brentford of course not at home.The last home game the week before was at home to Notts County which we lost 0-1 gate 12.624 of which there was a big away following.
It’s a shame that the majority of football fans are so fickle

You can see them on here in the East side of North Stand. Certainly not even as many as Crewe brought the other day.https://youtu.be/jKVSRbHGqyA?si=dgZCOmTj1Bm1EiVSEdit - managed to look it up, it was 695, so 11929 home supporters in the ground that day.
