Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2024/25

[JJH]

Similar to the 600 you take on a saturday to northern games like Huddersfield. Or the 400 when top of the league to Scunthorpe.

700 is a standard following to yorkshire for us, 570 the following to Scunny in 14/15 was. Wank admittedly, but it's no real secret our fans can't be arsed to travel up north.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you have 650 at Ashton Gate when you were top six in 14/15?

750 I think it was i remember not going fully expecting to lose , we were wank under clough. Think we brought even less a couple of years earlier when we were both battling league one relegation. Our 1st away win about December time.

Yeah, dark times they were, Flint OG back when he was useless.

Both had decent starts to the season this year, think we'll both fall into lower midtable mediocrity though.

We will do I'd of thought but you never know , strange old game football.

Mhm, our squad is certainly capable of much more but I still don't trust Johnson.

Other than millwall at QPR, low followings all round I expect tommorrow. Way too many £30 plus tickets for midweek championship football.

Millwall have only been given 1,500 tickets I believe. That will affect their average as they would have taken 3,000+

Oh right. That will still be the highest following of the night anyway. Can't see Burton,Brentford and Birmingham getting 1k between them.

Kop and North Stands sold out for Steel City derby, around 1,000 tickets left for South and Grandstand.
And we're selling tickets for block of seats next to away in South, now that is unusual.

Yet still not selling the block on the north are you? Wonder if you'll end up opening lower tier I'd guess not I thought it would of fully sold out today my pal says it went on general sale today.

General isn't till later in week, on sale to supporters with priority points at moment.
I can't see West lower going on sale, same goes for end block of North which is about 900 seats.

2,000 sold for Saturday's trip to Cardiff.

In amongst all of the willy waving, boasting, insults, and general to-ing and fro-ing, is there any chance of people actually posting any figures from the weekends games please?

Can't wait for a sold out Steel
City Derby in a 40k seater stadium with 30,000 inside.

 

[tiltontrev]

Just shy of 500 sold for Leeds tomorrow, lunatics!!

Derby in a fortnight sold out, 3200 or thereabouts, no surprise on that one tbf.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Quite surprised at that Forest figure, didn't look as many as that.

It was 2103, mistake on the first post

 

[Brad-Owl]

Surprised me too, looked about 1,700ish to me.

Must have been the extra pre match beers with late kick off.

2,100ish sounds about right, they had sold just over 2k pre match, I was working a cash turnstile on the away end and had a grand total of 42 people through my gate.

Do they sell the top tier tickets first and then the bottom now? as it didn't look that full on tv. (Not suggesting your figures are wrong only saw the bottom tier).

Yes £32 in too only £28 in bottom from the pictures I saw we took 4300 last year and the bottom was way more full than the Boro following

Yeah I didn't think it looked overly full at the bottom to be fair but that was the figure given. Might be wrong

 

[blademan89]

£20 tickets for us at forest, well done Nottingham forest I hope we do the same for them.

 

[Brad-Owl]

No numbers yet but didn't look much more than a hundred Brentford at Hillsborough.
One of lowest followings I've seen at Hillsborough for a Championship game.

687 City. Poor imo.

We'll take more.
