Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2024/25

[SMH]

I don’t normally get a programme unless it’s a special occasion. I’ve long grown out of the programme momento phase and grown into the ticket stub momento phase. However I made an exception for Whelan’s final game. 970 Wigan at Sheff Utd according to that. If anyone needs any other Latics numbers up to and including that game, let me know. Boro looked about 300-400 at most from the sole photo I’ve seen.

4,500 sold for Preston already, guaranteed to sell out, as it should.

Should give us some of the Tom Finney stand too imo

Can't, no segregation in there.

 

[blademan89]

Good effort from Blackburn even if it is close, be about half their home support.

 

[Frank]

You were singing that you hate QPR on Saturday. I think that now we are playing you more, and Chelsea less we will start to see more of a hatred towards you lot.

Did you go on Saturday? It was a cracking atmosphere. Surprised that you didn't sell it out though.

Yeah I'm sure we were, just generational as to who would say their number 1 is.

Na I live abroad at the moment so couldn't attend, yeah there was a massive fuck up on our end. We've had consistent ticket issues, people not being able to buy multiple tickets even though they should be able to etc etc, was a final straw moment. So there was a lot of waiting to buy. And then you sold the top tier first to us with the classic restricted view for an arm and a leg and it seems a lot of people were over it.

It's a shame, proper fuck up from our ticket office. We sell 4-6k no problem at Craven Cottage, pretty sure we sell out your end too previously.

You didn't sell QPR out last season.

 

[Depthcharge]

Hearing Bristol City have shifted 500 so far for Elland Rd.

(400 left in home end)

Yeah that’s correct, won’t be more than 1k as expected at those prices. We never really take more than 1k north of the midlands anyway.

There’s talk of you opening that bit under the score board and sticking home fans in there, can’t see the police passing that through though.

Fair enough, I'm out of the loop living away from the UK.

Bloody hell, about time you sold out at ours

Venkys are sound now...

Are you on sky, if so not bad numbers, but if that's a 3oclock kick off that's shit, before you talk shit, Derby only take shit numbers if it's a TV match, if not we always take good numbers to elland road . . .Bristol is one massive city, who has very poor home and away support, but no doubt you will slag Derby off, who is deffo a footballing city, and a very small city at that.

 

[roversfan2001]

Aye only been the one game since the last time we did it.

Venkys are sound now...

Venky’s have little to no bearing on away support

No, Derby had about 1,000 at Leeds for the friday night game last time wasn’t it? And about the same when you beat them there in midweek? It’s an hour and a bit up the road for you, as most games are in this division.

I never claimed it was a great following, few of our followings north of the midlands are. Interesting you should comment on Bristol not being a footballing city and getting poor home support yet (I haven’t looked it up, you’re not worth my time) I believe City and Rovers combined average more than Derby do, we’re only about 6k off ourselves. Just imagine if Bristol would’ve had a successful football side, you’ve had some decent footballing years yet we’re still within touching distance.

I reckon I preferred Lee Stand to you, at least he made a few whacky predictions that came off now and again.

Give it up man.

 

[Brad-Owl]

2190 of those celebrating their 0-0 win again.

You can add a few more on to that number with those who got in without tickets, unmanned turnstiles ment 2 people getting in on one ticket.

Hardly celebrating, just happy that we defended properly for first time this season and upsetting the blades fans who were predicting an easy win.
There was some who were unhappy about us not showing much interest in trying to win game.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

I was fucking livid at our lack of attacking intent.

Yes I know 3 who got in like that, did the same last year, they do it quite a lot actually. You showed absolutely zero interest to attack for 90 minutes, you defended very well though but it's not exactly a great way to play, if the pen goes in what game plan would you have had then? You treat it as though you were away at city ffs, If you play like that for the remainder of the season you will be struggling, I'm sure you know that too.

 

[markwwfc1992]

Thankfully, our fans showed what they thought of that sofa during one protest.

A shame to see a good sofa go to such a waste.

Was it the same last season?
It seems you usually go to their place on a bad run, and try and stop the rot by playing for a draw. I might be wrong though.

Not usually, but definitely the last 2 seasons under Jos, last season could be excused his 1st game in charge last 25 mins with 10 men, but this season was different, I expected us us to be defensive, but at some stage have a go to try and win the match, even if only a 10 min spell, but no nothing, still better than getting battered. Sorry to go off topic,

You were far far better last season, you defended well with a plan to try and score, you fully deserved the draw last season, the other night you were absolutely appalling in everything other than defending which you were good at like I said. Every time you got the ball you instantly just passed it straight back to us for us to try again, we failed to score so you can say it's job done but it's relegation for sure if your playing that way all season. You've been better in every other game I've seen you in than you were last Friday.

Those games where on sky, and yes our Home support is better than both Bristol clubs added together, our Home support is Very good at this level, our away support is average I will give you that, but we will still be in the top 8 best away supported teams in this division, you are usually bottom 8.

The midweek game wasn’t on Sky, you’re a liar.

You’re top 8 purely based on location and because you’re usually top 8 in the table, we average a few hundred less than you every season despite being mainly shite in this league and being situated about 4,000 miles away from most clubs in this division.

Sorry about one mistake, but it was midweek, if it was a Saturday not on the box, we would take over 2000, and our away support has stayed about the same for the past 10 years, fact Bristol is a massive City, which is not a football city, Derby is a small city, which is a footballing City, you are not even a big club in the championship, and you never will be, so stop talking shit and admit, you are a big city with shit support.

Like your boring football team, you are so negative, we will give you a footballing lesson. On the 24th, and in return you will give us some new chants to try out

Like you did Villa?

Will you sell 2k this season?

Meeting up with a good Derby mate for this so I can write the words down for you, someone will read it for you.

Haha, and that's coming from you, anyway we should sell 2000, most like my self are off to Stoke on the Wednesday, will sell that one out, will be a hot atmosphere at Stoke, since Rowett is now there, been to your place about 7 times now, never changed in the last 30 years and also poor atmosphere now a days, to be fair it use to a cracking away day, think charging your own fans over 40 pound for the crap you have played this season is ott, hope you enjoy watching us rip you a new one. Once aRam always a Ram.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

You're not even smart enough to quote reply are you.....

You've not sold 2k in the last 3 so be a rarity.

 

[TomPNE94]

Rovers officially sold out. Cracking stuff, 5,000 odd wankers going home crying will be quality
