Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Walkley_Owl]

Yeah, and at Reading we had 3.5k or whatever it was off the back of a terrible run, and at Fulham we sold the 4k.

Obviously last seasons figure was heavily bolster by the 5,300 and the 4,000 at MK and Coventry respectively, but our biggest following this season came in the cup (5.5k at WBA) rather than the league which is worth taking into account.

I take your point though, but I think our away numbers would be very respectable in this league now if we were doing well with the amount of southern games there are. We'll always travel poorly up north, unless it's a big game.

Didn't say it wasn't respectable fella, it's been decent given the season you've had but didn't think the numbers would drop on promotion, same for Preston too I think.

Surprised ours have gone down considering the 7k and 4K to Rovers and Bolton, don't think we had any big followings like that last season. 3k at Col U and maybe 3k at Oldham

Just checked, yours have risen by 101, as you say the recent games with local rivals have helped.

Still not great really considering the season we've had. Oh well, I only missed 2 of them so I don't really care

 

[Brad-Owl]

Both having an anti-Leeds theme. We quite like it when you all sing about us...

I didn't join in simply because I've forgotten all about Leeds Utd, I was thinking who?

 

[Nook Terrier]

£30 is it? That's beyond me how this game is classed as a Category A....

But anyway - it's Bristol City mate, Bristol are a rugby team. Sorry to be a pedant, but it's a pet hate of mine.

Yup! Poor do really, they probably thought a lot more would of been riding for it.

You shouldn't of said that, I'll just call you Bristol now..

Boro sell out at Brum, circa 4,900

Superb effort all season from em.

 

[tiltontrev]

Our measly allocation of 2158 for Cardiff never made it to General Sale

Not like it means owt now though pal, unless they win Sat and they can take 6th that game. Doubt I'd wanna be in the ground for that.

 

[roversfan2001]

Near enough 1000 sold for Rotherham, imo not bad for us

Home end selling well for this, there having to open sections of away end to our own supports now so it looks like you'll be only getting half the away end now around 1300 ish.

Lol Met Police think that we'll cause trouble

Our hooligan firm is non-existent unless we play against Swindon or Rovers, no clue wtf they think will happen

Ha, were you not in Cardiff when we played them a few years back?

But anyway, I've no idea why they think there'll be trouble in an end of season nothing game. Imagine if we needed something to stay up and we only got 1.6k because of police advice, it would be fucking chaos.

This. Was the reason you guys were subject to the bubble trip this season.

Well if it happens again next season given that you weren't made to do it there'll be a fucking uproar.

Tbh if there was no trouble there's no reason why there would be any restrictions. I didn't go to Ashton Gate this year but assume it was trouble free?

Absolutely nothing mate, folk wandering about in the city centre in Cardiff shirts with not a hint of of trouble (from what I saw anyway), but there was none reported. I think the rivalry has gone tame with the Cardiff 'rebrand' so to speak so I hope they lift the restrictions for next year.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

MK can fuck off, a politely worded email to ascertain the Brentford numbers, fuck all reply. Rude c***

 

[Walkley_Owl]

A commendable 214 Brentford in a piss poor crowd of 15,225 at Hull

 

[Reaper]

Dont get why Hull wont send us more tickets when there getting 10k empty seats an home game, demand is that high we could sell 5k from what ive heard. Hope they send us more!

Maybe cos there already pre sold to home fans and even they might get over 20k for that game

Oh yeah, and Cardiff. Other than against rivals our hooligan firm is nowadays inactive tbf

Middlesbrough have sold their allocation of 4,900. A Friday night game on Sky.

It's only the second time that an away club have sold out the bottom tier. West Brom being the other.

Another great Boro following, though I'm sure other clubs would have sold it out given the opportunity, us this season and Leeds every year at a guess as examples.

Leeds don’t often take a 3k following to St. Andrews.

Although I have no doubt they would sell out twice over if they were in Middlesbrough’s position.

Isn't that cause you generally cap at 2.5k? We'd have sold a lot more this season otherwise.

 

[roversfan2001]

Received another 200 tickets for Rotherham, 1100 sold so far. 700 left in the home end too, likely to sell out on both sides.

Depends how quick you sell them to be honest.

Nope. Bristol City sold out two days before the match, you'd probably have only brought a couple of hundred more at best.

Fair enough I thought we sold out earlier than that.
