Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2024/25

[blademan89]

I think there were cheap tickets tbf, the Bolton following at 30 quid a pop is excellent.

It was still a score. Not that cheap

 

[djs]

Nit picking perhaps, but 760 from Bolton according to Bristol City twitter.
Two didn't turn up, and are pleased that they didn't.

 

[SF_]

6,200+ sold of the 6,963 for Blackburn on the 2nd of April.

Going to be a good one that, it's a shame Bolton are going down as these local games were the best thing about being promoted.

 

[Ciderup]

I wonder if Cardiff will give away sides more tickets next season given their home support means the stadium isn't even half full? Is it easy to expand the away numbers at the CCS without causing security issues Cardiff supporters?

Likely to get Wigan next season though, a like for like? Get the whole end there too.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

You'll get more at Wigan than Bolton.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Guaranteed if we play Wigan it is midweek

Aye fair point, it's hard to give any sort of a shit about Wigan though.

There would be no point to it, pretty sure no one has sold their allocation this season. I think it could be easily expanded if needed though, would simply be a case of shuffling a couple of blocks either side more centrally.

Genuinely surprised at that Dai!

 

[Walkley_Owl]

We have taken the most there, a mere 1200 or so.

 

[The Southbank]

It's because it's such a non-entity of an away day nowadays. The stadium is half-empty, the nearest home fans are about a mile away and the corner of the ground is shite for an away end.

 

[SF_]

Wouldn't call it a non-entity of a trip, Cardiff is a top city. Ball ache to get to though.

I meant it's a far cry away from the Ninian Park days.

Yeah agree with that, proper footy ground

 

[Walkley_Owl]

I loved Ninian, the CCS just doesn't hold the same appeal. I've been once and that'll do for me.

Shit ain't it?

I'll go again next season if we stay up and it's on a Saturday, but fuck anothe bubble trip there. It was horrendous.

Happy with our figures this season, bit of a topsy turvey season so far on the pitch but the fun seems to have returned to following the club. We'll take 3000+ to Charlton in a fortnight, been ages since I last went so looking forward to it, 8 am train from Brum

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Impressive increase both home and away for Brum.

If I get a bit of time I'll try and chuck up the comparatives for last season for the clubs who stayed in the division and the three that came up as I had the data.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

 

[Bobbin']

Tells its own sad story.

 

[Reaper]

We should just sneak over a 1000 average by the end of season hopefully, we have 4 away games left and 3 of those will be 1k plus followings.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

You'd need 6,525 from the final four games to get that. Realistically that's 6k from MK Dons, Wolves and Hull, can't see that can you?

When you put it like that no. We'll get 300ish to Bristol as its Tue night, 1500 to 2000 at MK, 1000 to 1500 at Wolves and we'll sell out Hull.

 

[Camdenite]

1841 Wednesday
238 MK

298 MK at Hull by the way.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

298 MK at Hull by the way.

Aye I'd actually put 298 in the table.

Sold 900 on first day for Brizzle via loyalty points so expect to sell out tomorrow.

It will be up to 2,700ish next season, if you're /we're still here.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Hopefully you are and we are not.

 

[Madejski]

Third biggest % increase in home attendance and second biggest % increase in away attendance (helped that it was low last season ofc).. not bad for a team that's done no better than last season.

Although our away attendance will drop further soon, still got to go to Bolton, Middlesbrough, Leeds and Blackburn...
