Think Brighton's following is pretty poor tbh, sure we took more to them and we were in the bottom 3!

Edit: just checked , we took 949. Never mind.

The Battle Royale as Rotherham and Crewe clash to see which has the bigger away support. We hold our breath in anticipation.

I take it you're Reading.In the past I think you've had next to no away fans at GR.

 

[Football Purist]

Congrats to QPR for bringing the quietest 4,000 fans we've ever had or are likely to ever see.

That was abysmal support for the numbers.

They were too pre-occupied with doing the grocery shopping in Asda after the game.

As opposed to this

Yep they are equally as retarded. What would go through a grown mans head to do this or to go and stand waiting for the other teams bus to turn up.

Past is the past, we took 7k to Hillsborough in 2002, then we took 5k the following year, 3k in carling cup 2008 and 5k last season, were having a bad season away from home this season hence the reason the following was lower. Crewe haven't been taking over 2k to Vale for the last few seasons consecutively whatever the circumstance.

7,000 in 2002?? To bring that many you would have had North West corner as well which you didn't.

Only 3 clubs have had corner since we dropped out of prem, Sheff Utd, Wolves and QPR.

Sunderland had it once didnt they? We had some of the north stand too once. 7.5k in total if i remember rightly in a crowd of only 27k. Less than 20k home fans.

How many Blunts at Swillsboro',Dec '79?

 

[blademan89]

How many Blunts at Swillsboro',Dec '79?

Wasnt alive but id imagine over 10/15k at least then about 500 left when the 4th went in. There was easily over 10k when bobby bagged a brace in the 3-1 win in the early 90s. All over the ground

We had the crows nest corner that season because it was the first time we played you for ages at Hillsborough and it was around 7k from us and around 30k overall, im not one for exaggerating figures i remember it well.

Yeh,out of 49K you must've had a good 12 to 15 thou,I'd have thought.

Well yes...I meant Div3 as opposed to Div3 North or South.
Mind you,isn't the South record even higher? Something like 51000 plus at Cardiff,I think.

 

[Millerski]

I've also seen that 54,605 figure quoted, this does contradict the under 50,000 figure I grew up believing to be correct, from books and pre Internet days.
