Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2023/24

[Ciderup]

£22 for Bristol City and £24 for Notts Forest. Pleasantly surprised Forest is that low, I remember having to pay around £30 after making a last minute decision to pay on the day for a game a few years back. Was worth it though, we won 4-1.

You heading down to BS3 SMH? If you are, be aware that the M5 will be a total car park due to holiday makers heading for the South West. It could well add a fair bit of time to your journey. It will be the same for Newcastle and Villa although Villa isn't that far.

I'll be heading down but don't worry, going by train so no traffic worries here. I know a few heading down by car though so I'll give them the heads up to leave lots of time for the trip. Nice one!

35 quid for Norwich when it's on Sky is going to be a no from me, Cambridge 16 quid for a first round League Cup tie is a bit much but I'll do that one.

Norwich has always been expensive, in the prem it was £40 plus for a ticket. We've just paid £16 for a friendly at Cambridge on Tuesday night where we had 850 travel down.

Took 1000 odd to Southend on Tuesday gone. Which if you consider it's basically the other end of the world to Newcastle, it ain't too bad.

that's brilliant support. Maybe a few ex pats made the numbers up though?

Very likely mate. Can imagine a lot of southern based Newcastle fans would have seen it as a great excuse considering it was £14 a ticket.

 

[City169]

Burton prices on the terrace are very decent.
£20 for adult
£18 for over 65
£15 for under 23
£8 for under 17

All have an extra pound booking fee, but think that's something put on at our end.

Not sure about prices sat in the stand as I can't select the option on the Bristol Sport website

All the tickets in the seated area have sold out, that'll be why.

I guessed that was the case, I'd be disappointed if we didn't fill our allocation for this one

Wigan tickets went on sale for members for the opening day this morning. 230 tickets left to go onto general sale currently, will have to take some of Wigan's allocation that they won't sell and put them on offer for home fans.

Bloody hope the top tier can be opened, 27,000 on the opening day would be quality.

Eh? 230 out of 23,000 (West upper closed) or 230 out of 1,250 which we gave Wigan as an initial allocation?

The 2,700 we gave Wigan haven't been made available, so let's say 3,000 were off sale including segregation, 20,000 tickets have gone. So 14,000 ST's guaranteed, but we've had 6,000 ticket sales for this game.

 

[City169]

Just to clarify things, the home end is currently sold out (according to the latest press release), but more tickets may go on sale from the 3rd if we pass the safety inspection.

 

[Ciderup]

Where is this info fellas? We've sold 24,000 tickets? No way.
Wigan didn't get 2,700 by the way, they've had an initial 1,250.

Just been put up on the OS mate, don't even think it's going to make general sale.

Safety inspection on the 3rd, if it passes we can sell tickets for the top tier.

Am I right is saying that's 20,000 plus away support? Blimey!

I believe so.

It's ticket sales, so does it really matter?

Back on topic then; Wigan have sold about 7 tickets for the game at ours on the opening day.

That doesn't surprise me. Expect they'll manage 1250-1400

Sorry fella, my mistake. I was just blown away by the fact we might have sold that number. That's massive for us if it IS that many.

Given the size of the City it should be a given but fair play to your fans for finally turning out

No, I'm banned and there are too many Birmingham supporters on there!

Banned, the staff on there are a right set of c***. Were you on TFF? If so, it's owned by the same fella (TomF).

Aye, about time - the redevelopment will probably have the same affect for us as The AMEX did for Brighton.

Yeah I remember TomF. Creepy looking, scrawny fucker.

That's fantastic, fair play. Be great if all clubs implemented this, expect you'll get some big away supports at the Madjeski this season.
