Have you seen the distance?
280 miles shortest distance, a bit unfair to say fucking shite IMO.

the last part of my post said it all. It's Brighton so we don't expect them to travel in numbers. But let's look at it like this. They average 27k and again are doing really well this season. You wouldn't bet against them going up. It's poor no matter how you dress it up. Fuck me your lot would probably take double that.

Good effort that 5 hours minimum drive, we aren't all as massive as Villa in this league mate.

Very true.

Great support from Newcastle yesterday. Loads of noise and I can't remember the last time all of the top tier stood the whole game.

Pretty sure leeds will of guaranteed

 

[StevieEvansRedNWhiteArmy]

Trip to Newcastle officially sold out now.

3,206 Millers. I'll try not to bring up the Wednesday and Leeds followings that were pathetic.

Looking forward to two nights out and a shit load of ale more than the match to be fair.

Every dog has its day, ours was yesterday. A hammering at Newcastle awaits.

Sold out 9 of 14 away games realistically ours couldn't be any higher. Ones we've not sold out.

Gillingham Sunday on sky
Coventry Thursday on sky
Shrewsbury Tuesday night
Millwall just a wank following
Southend a game arranged 2 weeks before.

2 or 3 sub 1k followings? OK 1 was sold out, but would probably have been sub 1k anyway.
As we both both know, both Sheffield clubs have very good away followings when doing well, but if results are poor, 1 club still get good support, while the other club (as you openly admit) get wank support. As for Rotherham, great numbers going to Newcastle, 1 decent following all season though, I know it was tongue in cheek, but they don't compare to either Sheffield club. Will be interesting to see how they compare to Donny next year, other than that they will become a complete irrelevance once again.

I'm obviously only taking piss anyway but if your on about Wimbledon would of been less than 1k it sold out on 30k loyalty points. We've took 1 shit following this season. We've been in this league 6 fucking years , yes you have better away support but we don't do bad.

Off topic but
Went to the Brook Golovkin fight in London the night of your Wimbledon game, expected to see hundreds of Blades there that had been to both match and boxing, they may have been there, but if they were I didn't see any, either in the arena or in boozers after, was quite surprised at that.

We had 800 tickets. You'd do well to find 10% of that interested in going to boxing as well as the match. The match sold out quicker than any other than Chesterfield

I doubt anyone going to the boxing would've taken their blades shirt and scarf with them..

Plus not everyone wears club merchandise anyway, I don't

No football colours allowed, but people have mouths, thought I would have heard a few of em, especially with him being a Blade.

Like most your support is very result dependant. Over 3k at Bury this season as opposed to was it 600 last season when you were doing badly under Adkins? Personally it's your home support that impresses me the most. To still get around 20k every week when you've been in the league as long as you have is admirable.

He's never been a blade. Never goes to watch us so imo ain't a blade
