The last league match to top 8000 was against Rangers on 30th December 2013 when the crowd numbered 9346.
The best home attendance this season was 6670 when Falkirk were the visitors in September and the Pars biggest attendance so far this season was the derby away to Falkirk in November. A travelling support of 1976 boosted the total to 7279 that day.
