Not with Edinburgh you fucking won't.

Be fair, it's very possible they'll be up the top of the league looking imperious for half the season, only to tumble off a cliff when Edinburgh shits himself that the club is over-achieving and goes nuts.

 

[joethegill]

Very decent from Scunny.

Our following are a shambles this year but are expected to go up with a few more closer games coming up

How many have we given you?

Have I missed something here?

Justin Edinburgh is the Northampton manager isn't he?

Pretty sure eric read supports Oxford.

To be fair I was just responding to The Last Waltz rather than reading who he was quoting!

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

And I am just a nob that doesn't take the time to read things properly.
Eric Read, Eric Sabin, too many bloody Erics on here!
My comment about the coaches is still valid though

 

[Mr Plow]

How many have we given you?

We've been allocated 1478 tickets.

 

[Shrimpurh]

How many have we given you?

Just under 1500. Should sell them considering where we are.

 

[PuB]

You'll probably get more if you sell them all

I was thinking that, but since the away end has moved I don't know what the plan would be.

If Southend don't sell out whatever they're given that's pretty poor though, especially as I've been told it's only £10 a ticket for them.

 

[eric read]

So I waste my time, writing something sensible and serious, and the two Gillingham clowns can't be bothered to read it properly and think I'm from Northampton?

I don't know why I bother, I might as well stick to fucking abusing people!

2001/02
Sheff Wed v Bradford 1715 away fans
Bradford v Sheff Wed 2756 away fans

Those are the only other ones that I've got for this fixture.

So not a bad following given it being on SKY.

The Wednesday fans at VP that season were immense. I must've only been 11/12 at the time, but they were ridiculously loud.

How did that Kuqi song go again?

You mean away fans get a roof now? The luxuries of following Posh just keep on coming.

 

[PuB]

Yeah, you get a covered stand at the side now although I'm not sure (like Joe) what happens when a decent following turns up.

Some genius came up with the lyrics "Shefki Kuqi, Shefki Kuqi" incredible on a par with some of McCartney and Lennons songwriting.

As a Posh fan I certainly won't be worrying about that, i'll leave the umbrella at home.

We give a block of the covered Gordon Road (the smaller side) stand to away followings now, and the bit of the open end we also give has moved to the other half of the stand so that the two sections are next to each other. It's a good move really, plus it stops the moaning.

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

If you have a ticket for the open stand, it's raining and there is spare capacity under the covered Gordon Road, you will not be allowed to transfer...

No, because there is a variation in price.

We had what, 600 at Gillingham? If they let one and everyone wants to switch then they won't all fit

 

[PuB]

It would be exactly the same if you tried to switch stands in any other ground in this division. Both for home and away fans I imagine.

At Blundell Park the Upper Findus is £2 dearer than the lower Findus, but the Lower Findus has a bar and when you exit it to your right it goes to the Lower but to the left are some stairs that take you to the Upper.
Certainly that used to be the case anyway although for last few seasons we've always sat in The Pontoon so don't know if it still is.

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

I didn't, but there were a few of ours that did...especially with the different kind of rain you get off the Medway

 

[Wombletom]

616 Charlton at Kingsmeadow.

3930 blades. Great scenes

715 Bradford in Bristol.

886 Walsall

129 vale fans at gillingham. Basically them 129 are the loyal fans that will pretty much travel to every away game. They are throwing money away really travelling up and down the country to watch a side thats won 1 away game all season and 1 game in the last 12. Im expecting pretty much every vale following between now and the end of the season to be this low. You would have to be crazy to want waste money watching this shite.

 

[Andy Proctor]

Why so few?!

Probably all they were allocated
