105 Bluebirds in a crowd of 930 at Accy.

 

[northstandexile]

135 Stags at Harrogate with a total attendance of 825

I continue to be astounded that anyone travels more than ten miles to watch these games

 

[Chief Rocka]

We've sold the 600 tickets given for Tranmere, expecting a limited amount more?

 

[Andy Proctor]

246 vale fans at Bolton

 

[Limerick Mariner]

Yes, I have not seen an official figure but there were about 7-800 of us at Scunthorpe on Saturday, whereas we would not have taken more than 300 in the past.

They never give them out - there is a pic Tranmere at Scunny I doubt SUFC will drop below 2k homes on Saturday - that looks to be circa 5-600 depending on how many in the block out of picture on the right.

In the past they have not published the away figure online, but did do so in their matchday programmes. There was a Scunny fan (I think) who posted them on here (sorry, forgotten the name). Hopefully they will continue to do so.

The stand holds 2,200, so fill yer boots.

Yeah we'd never take that many for an early season kick about, probably a few hundred more, just dunno why it was limited tickets in the first place?

No reason I can think of, but I am sure you will get whatever you ask for. That stand is never used by home supporters.

 

[Limerick Mariner]

Attendance at SUFC v TRFC was 2,770. Last SUFC home game had 2,300 home fans. 600 away max I'd say...

 

[RLC]

No it doesn't. It holds 1,600. Special clubs like Grimsby (and Bradford) get another 600 seats allocated in the side stand. Attendance was 2,770. Last SUFC home game had 2,300 home fans. 600 away max I'd say...

I was referring to the away end at Prenton Park.....

That was me.

We don't produce programmes anymore but we release them online before every home game on our website and it includes the figures in there.

Swindon - 737
Sutton - 112

No figure for Tranmere until our next home game

Tranmere gave us an extra 50? Wtf?

 

[MadJohn]

OK, that is objectively bizarre. Any idea, Tranmere fans?

Ignore that. Seems like it's piss poor communication at our end, as per. Tranmere have said that tickets can be bought from their ticket office on the day of the game.

Good showing that. The bad news is that the Fan Zone is currently limited to 350 due to Covid and therefore it`s home fans only at the moment. Sorry Poolies. There`s still the Clipper, Prenton Park etc for you to wet your whistle in. Hopefully that will change later in the season especially when the tent is consigned to history and our new "Greenhouse" opens.

 

[Posh Red]

957 tickets sold in advance for Stevenage tomorrow, hopefully a few more on the day to get up to 1,000

 

[TheDon]

Swindon 4 Arsenal 3 best night I ever had at the County Ground! Squashed into the Town End to the right of the bogs!

 

[Back in the DHSS]

499 Tranmere at Sunny Scunny last Saturday!

 

[denzel ecfc]

185 Vegans at SJP. I mean its not as if they are top of league in one of their closest games of the season....

Though to be fair the home support isn't great either

 

[F!RTHY]

15,822 (490 Visiting Saddlers).

 

[E10rifle]

396 irritated Cockney barra boys at Dave

 

[chipmunx]

474 very happy Barrow fans at Oldham

 

[kieran_vale]

486 Dale at VP.

 

[Reginald Fodstain]

Yeah, there were signs of that in our one NL meeting. There were 291 Tranmere fans, easily the largest following since the 2005 playoff semi, and that was a Tuesday

I was there in 2014 when I think there was 104 of us. On a Saturday too. Definitely the lowest away attendance I've been part of, and one of if not our absolute lowest since the late '80's for a league game. There'll be far more than that this year, our away support is much better than it used to be. Pools fans were great today, it was great seeing the away end rocking, especially as the game was so poor.

Not great but read a couple of coaches turned back because of the M5 traffic.
