Stickied League One Away Support Thread 2023/24

[BarrieOwl]

Any Barnsley fan on here know how many you’ve sold for today? Should be a 25k gate if you can bring around a thousand.

They had 1400 at Derby so expect 500

Ta.

Talk on our forum is that we will most likely sell out our allocation for your place September 17th. Apparently we were close to doing so last year but my memory suggests we only brought around 3k. And your away end is nearer 4,000 isn’t it? Either way, it’s one of the best away trips of the season and am looking forward to it far more than Accrington away next Saturday.

3k up top and a further 1k if needed down stairs. You only took 3k which almost sold out last time.

Be a very good turnout that, be the 3rd time I've seen you bring over 2k up.

 

[BarrieOwl]

Not expecting too many from FGR but fair play to those that make the trip.

I’d be surprised personally if we sold out the extra 1k downstairs but who knows.

Pretty much since the day Evans sold the club just over a year ago our fan base returned. From 15k a week at home to 23k/24k. Just shows how a bad owner can suck the life out of a fan base I suppose.

Barring 2 tilts at the Play offs we've been utterly shite since 2000, owners, players and managers alike, it gets tedious.

I'll be delighted if we crack 300; bit of a trek but got to be the biggest ground we've played at bar Wembley.

Over 10% of your home gates is very respectable.

 

[denzel ecfc]

306 Grecians at the Wham, out of a total crowd of 2170. Oh the glamour of League One!

 

[kieran_vale]

1680 Portsmouth in total crowd of 8878. Impressive for the distance.

 

[Luke Imp]

Think it was 128 Fleetwood.

 

[BarrieOwl]

158 Brewers
128 Codheads
764 Bolton
1638 Charlton
1209 Oxford

 

[SuffolkBlue]

Think it was 613 Barnsley

 

[WhiteRussian]

279 relieved MK in a crowd of 3995

 

[Dan Phillips]

Why the fuck are Morecambe getting really decent crowds when they're absolutely gash?

Really cheap season tickets i think

Decent numbers and seemed a good set of fans, clapped through the memorial service and didn’t hear or see any trouble.

Not seen any confirmation as yet but it looked between 200 and 300.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Almost 1000 tickets sold for Charlton, a week on Saturday. First half decent away trip of the season.

 

[Chris FGR]

324 FGR at Hillsborough

324 FGR at Hillsborough

Good effort! If only could say same for... etc etc

 

[Essex2Wessex]

(Passes over the fact that we took more than that to $alford the first time we played them at their splendidly historic and elegant old lady of a stadium or whatever it is, albeit - yes, that's a slightly shorter and easier journey from Glos, and this was a bank holiday weekend in the school holidays, and that wasn't. Not bad at all though, and quite a bit over 10% of our typical home attendance at TNL)

Strange to see your attendances falling away BarrieOwl?

Bought our tickets yesterday for the game next month, looking forward to it as I’ve not been to Hillsborough before. Looks like the other tickets are going quickly as well.

 

[Royalowl]

Now't that strange about our attendances at home, they stay steady and always do. After 23 years out of the top flight, sky-high ticket prices, relegations, points deductions and mediocrity - plus being a 2 city club all take their toll - our crowds don't tend to fluctuate that much, be it up or down.

Falling away.....

Hope you break down and don't make it.

Its alright, these Ipswich fans have got uppity in the wake of a few good attendances.

 

[Tom_ITFC]

Christ, it was a joke

I know ours have only just started to come back to post premier league attendances. Ours slowly fell away following the decline and boredom of no ambition and now slowly increased since, 1. Mick left and 2. Evans left.

We’ve had shockingly high prices ourselves over the last 20 years too, away fans would always moan.
