Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2024/25

[villa loyal]

Can we drop this villa v Newcastle thing for fuck sake you bitter bastard.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Mate, the other (very decent) Newcastle fans on the forum have turned on him, leave him to it at this point.

 

[Veggie Legs]

it was £37.50 for villa.

My understanding is that prices for away fans have to be the same as the equivalent home seats, which is £27.50 in the lower tier, £32.50 in the upper and £37.50 for a small number of seats near the halfway line.

your correct, my bad. Only block E is £37.50.

Didn't think so thought Wolves travelled better. Thinking of going to Wolves next week never been is it really as bad as people make out?

Considering we haven't won a game of football for 2 months, I think 2k+ up the M6 is respectable.

Also as much as I love Molineux, it is a bit shit for away fans. Sitting in the Steve Bull lower feels like you're a mile away from the pitch, and by the chance you score, you'll get some of our pissed up neanderthal contingent urinate into a beer cup and pour it down from the upper tier.

Forest have sold just over 1,000 for our game on Friday night . . . with free coach travel as well.

Is that shit for them? I can't decide. It is on Sky tbf.

 

[JJH]

Another great TV choice there from Sky.

I'd say it's poor for them yes. Not far up the road and free travel.

 

[tiltontrev]

It's free travel on a coach though.

Does anybody know what the maximum league allocation is at Newcastle?

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Wednesday took 4K to Fulham, Wolves is a shit away day but we've sold 2400, remind me how many you took to Brum?

Edit they are doing well hence the higher numbers but 3K is decent to London....

Well that didn't take long.

Regardless, we sold out all we were given at Brum.

"Sold out" away end mate. Reckon some of your lot have given up on it this season and are going in the away end at The Valley on saturday.

It took until the very last day to 'sell out'. If the demand was there you would have had a bigger allocation.

League 2 Bristol Rovers did.

Aye, there's probably more there in that picture than they've taken away from home to every game this season.

 

[JustinQPR]

Just over 1,200 sold so far for Portman Road on Saturday. At £33 a pop it's safe to say Holloway has had a massive influence on a lot of us already.

Terrible away trip Wolves, absolutely nothing good about it. Surprised you haven't sold out still you normally do. You're in about the same position as this time last year , surely people can't be all doom and gloom already? I'm sure you won't but what's the general feeling with your fans? Expectation levels rising does nothing but have a negative impact imo.

 

[QPR_Matt]

How many do we normally take? Around the same? Though, we played them on Boxing Day recently so not the best game to compare.

Think we will just about sell out. Fans expectations being much higher than previously, has certainly had a negative effect. Many supporters too quick to get on teams back, when performances and results aren't up to what they now expect. Still only 2 pts off top 6, but listening to some of our fans you would think we are relegation fodder. Granted we haven't yet performed upto expectations but listening to some people its ridiculous, they need to remember how much we have progressed over the last 18 months.

No mate they don't need us to help them sell out. Like us, but unlike some, they have good away support, that still travel in numbers even if the match is further than 2 hours away.

Awful fishing there young un.

When your away numbers are as good and consistent as ours come talk to me, we take more to Wales midweek than you manage on a Saturday oop north

It isn't all doom and gloom but summat doesn't feel the same, I'm not doing Wolves and that's unheard of, just can't be arsed.

On the way back from Rotherham the other week I had radio Sheffield on and every single fan who rung in sounded pissed off, a couple even said they thought Carvahal should go.

I think every retard in sheffield rings that station up I could never listen to it. I mean seriously why would you ring a radio station up.
