Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2023/24

[AdamStag]

Or away end has been reduced to 700 tickets for the rest of the season, probably only cause a concern for Bradford, although reading how they've been playing this year maybe not.

You’d have got that from us this weekend had you not been fannying around in the cup (best of luck of course)

No sign of an official figure anywhere.

 

[Robshep]

I think it says a lot about the game that people were counting away fans.

 

[RLC]

38 Stevenage at Tranmere. Counted them.

The official figure is 42 (I counted 40 ).

Confirmed in our programme as 282 Forest Green supporters at Prenton Park on Saturday.

 

[RLC]

Touts setting up a Tranmere portal on their websites for this seasons run in.

Would imagine we will sell our every allocation besides Hartlepool if we stay where we are. The farcical tier system preventing season ticket holders getting tickets

Not really farcical, as the tier system just ensures that the regulars that go to every game (like me) get a ticket irrespective of season ticket status. It is only a couple of hundred people.

Even the Barrow game on Saturday went to general sale to season ticket holders.

 

[Hurrikeen]

1570 sold for Scunthorpe on Saturday.

Considering we haven’t scored a goal since 2021 and are thus far the worst team in England owned by an absolute c***, that’s mental.

And managed by one, too.

There will be close to as many of your fans there as there will be ours

 

[denzel ecfc]

1200 sold for Swindon. I must admit I'm a little bit disappointed but I guess it didn't help that Bristol Rovers tickets went on sale first and I suspect a few people are prioritising that one.

 

[Indian Dan]

Should be another 10,000+

so what was the total attendance of Tranmere vs Stevenage?

 

[denzel ecfc]

I see we are only allowed in 2 pubs tomorrow- the Great Western and Cheekies. Let's hope all 1200 of us don't want a drink!

I think that was the same for the visit of Rovers. They had double the amount of fans and there wasn't any issues. (that I know about)

5,732

 

[JaredSUFC]

500 Bristol Rovers fans in an attendance of 3,394 at Sutton

 

[The Jovial Forester]

1224 Exiles at TNL, sell out from them, crowd of about 3,800 I think, bit mumbled.

 

[chipmunx]

officially 629 Tranmere fans at Barrow, but probably 640-670 in reality as several bought tickets in the main stand and there are a lot of scousers living in the area and working at the shipyard.

It really is an awful experience for an away supporter. £18 to stand on a cramped open terrace in the rain with restricted views of the pitch. One entry and exit point for 1200+ supporters, 40-minute queue for refreshments. On the pitch FGR by far and away the best side we’ve played and certainties for promotion.

585 Bradford at Harrogate
956 Colchester at Orient
1260 Exeter at Swindon

The trick is to stand in the tea bar queue the whole game as you get a better view than being stuck in a corner.
I actually like standing along the side so as long as its not raining I'm happy.

Absolutely right. To be fair, they treat away fans with total contempt. We had 1224 fans crammed into an open terrace with one tiny entry/exit, no bar, no facilities, no consideration of health and safety. Total hobby club. The minute Vince pulls the plug they are gone. Less than 2600 fans for a club top of the league.
That’s not sour grapes, they’re a great side, play good football and would do well in League One. They also have great contributors here. Deserved to beat us 3-0/4-0.

They're not going to do anything about the facilities now the new stadium is going ahead but there's plenty of small things could be done to make current experience less shit and it's embarrassing they don't bother.

A burger van would be nice ;-)

 

[EricSabin]

No announcement on how many but looks about 1500 or so Cobblers at Walsall? If that end holds 2,000

Used to get one parked up by that roundabout, DV probably had him "taken out" in the other way.

Closer to 1700 I’d say

Sell out - 1570 I believe

 

[denzel ecfc]

Sorry, this has probably been mentioned earlier, but is that the maximum Harrogate allocation? If so that's pathetic.
