Sorry mate, never bother. Didn't think to check on here first either otherwise would have had a look at someone elses.

No problem pal.

No problem pal.

We've got Fulham at their place in a few weeks, I'll have a look then.

Ta......can you get Fulham at QPR too.

Will do mate.

 

[JJH]

Sold 2k for Fulham, games still 3 weeks away. Will we get the full 6k? I imagine we'll shift the 4k.

Reyt attendance at Huddersfield per the Wolves site

Attendance: 121,714 (1,476 away supporters).

The dingle adding up our away attendances on the OS always cocks it up, word is that he uses his 6 fingers to count rather than a calculator.

Isnt their full allocation 4k?

Brentford got 6k last year I thought.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

They won't allocate 6k this time round to anyone.

4,055 Derby official
2,505 Fulham at QPR official

Why not? That's gash seeing as most that don't get tickets will head to the neutral and end not get counted in the official number.

 

[tiltontrev]

We've had our allocation for Wolves reduced somewhat this year, and a request for a further allocation denied. Apparently something to do with Wolves not being able to control their hooligan problem or something

Only Brentford got 6k as it was a derby so it reduced the risk of trouble.

Ah right. Should sell our allocation then, don't think we'd have sold the full 6k anyway but it would have been alright to have the option if needs be.

This is true, a good 40% of the WMP that were due to police this game have now been hastily drafted to the town centre, in fear of angry Wolves fans attacking old women as they cross the street.

Sadly the consequence is that we won't be allowed to accept as many Birmingham fans into our ground this year.

At least on the bright side, I'll sleep easy tonight knowing that the general public will be free to shop in peace without being viciously attacked by violent and psychotic Wolves fans.

6.5k IIRC

Best away day ever. Whole stand was bouncing the entire game, and we did the Booze Boat beforehand.

Yeah, they reduced that to 5k this year, not sure why. Don't think we would have sold too many more anyway tbh.

551 well fed Trotters.

 

[MillerWhale]

271 quality-starved sods at Reading to witness an eye-watering 13th away defeat of the season.

I'd say its been fun, but it hasn't really. Much prefer League 1.

 

[Rammy]

Blackburn sold a massive 250 for tomorrow. Will be a few more pay on the day.

Not bad from us that tbh, was expecting it be embarrassingly low with it been a long way on a Tues night and probably having the worst away record in the country. I agree about enjoying League 1 more, cant wait for next season with Barnsley, Donny, Blades ect next season some good away days .

To be honest I've said it from the beginning of the season. Last season was great, but it's tiresome being the whipping boys. We've been beaten by everyone in the bottom and everyone who hasn't won for xxxxxxxxx matches. In the division below, we'll have a top half budget and be playing a whole host of northern teams, and have northern teams visit us which wll make for better attended games home and away (though obviously we'll lose the big teams from this division that can guarantee 11k crowds).

If I thought the club could be financially viable without the money, I'd be pro relegation.

 

[JJH]

907 Brighton.

 

[Doriva17]

156 very respectful Cardiff fans

 

[JJH]

Cardiff's away average must be horrific.

Many QPR at your place last night? Good result for us, but looked like you should have thrashed us.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

326 R's.

We should have won but didn't, the penalty miss was pivotal, had we gone in front I doubt you'd comeback but such is life.

Some shockers there. And the home crowds were disappointing in most games last night. 17k at Leeds and Ipswich, only 19k at Hillsbrough. I guess ticket pricing is starting to affect both home and away gates, though I note Forest offered all theirs free travel last night which is a nice touch.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Huddersfield at MK needed

That's normal for a midweek game for us, they're always a few thousand lower than Saturdays.
