Not bad given you played 'em as recently as three years ago.

how many you have at Rotherham?

 

[blademan89]

708

35 miles further to Bradford too.

Oh yes division above as well

Forgot to mention the 20,000 home crowds

Oh yes. And the millions spent, ambitions of premier league football

We had 908 at Bradford on a weeknight a couple of years ago, pipe down Gassy.

We played at Rotherham last year as well. Rotherham are a much smaller club than us, Bradford are a much bigger club than Rovers. There's the attraction of play at a ground that holds more than 10k with your lot.

Bradford City like their counterparts Park Avenue were mostly in Div 4 with very small gates when I was growing up . Both clubs were never big clubs and I doubt without the price reductions City would be much bigger than us at present.

The fact that they've played in the top flight and have a ground that holds 25k says that they are IMO.

Are you for fucking real that was the match to clinch promotion 908 is absolutely pathetic. To say rovers are a smaller club than you there away support nigh on matches yours. I reckon if both in the same league they would maybe average more

Yeah, we would. We are.

I don't tend to get involved in this 'massive' debates, however, we're far more massive than little Rovers. Forever in City's shadow.

It wasn't a big game at all, we were wrapping it up with about 4 to spare. Anti-climax.

Does it fuck anyway; you have a pretty short memory, they've been alright for the last few years, you'd expect them to average decent numbers.

Calm it down guys please.

Ey up, big Tommy's here to sort you all out!

Amazing, but I really don't get it - I'd rather save my cash to follow my team anywhere but Franchise...

 

[Liam_SWFC]

MK Dons is a shocking away day, it's a shame because the away end is great.

 

[JJH]

Be around 700 gas at bradford tomorrow

We had a reyt day in Newport Pagnall when we went, was a great day all round. The 4 - 1 win probably helped though.

 

[Westbars_Spireite]

Fair play to any away fans who go to be ripped off and treated like shit (in general) but I thought it was a piss poor turnout from Northampton today.

To be fair I went to the FA Cup replay the other year when we lost 2-0. Expected you'd have to go quite far out to find owt.

No, just head to Fenny Stratford, about a mile away.

Anyone who moans about lack of proper pubs just needs to do a bit of research. Fair enough there's just chain bars and restaurants at the ground, but there's about four decent pubs about a fifteen/twenty minute walk away in Fenny. Most away fans have been to ours enough times to know its a crap day out if you pitch up at 2pm and don't really have much choice other than the Frankie & Benny's, Chimichanga's and Nando's or a pint in the ground. Therefore, why do it and then go on forums to bitch about it being "a bit crap"

If making a day of it involves a decent session in a decent pub, then we're no different to about half the clubs in the country, in that you'll have to rely on Google and a bit of local knowledge, and probably a cab to the ground. Likewise, It's no different for us at a large number of away games (including Hillsborough, where you can't seemingly buy a pint as an away fan within a mile of the ground).
