Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2024/25

2660 allocation sold out for our long trip to West Brom. And I only managed to bag myself an unexpected ticket.

Assume that game is on the box? We’ve just been given full allocation of 2,800 for Brum next month, surprising as they usually give us an initial of 1,600 and then the WMP take a week to decide if they want to give us more....

Shouldn’t think we’ll need more than 2k anyway with the way we’re playing, will probably end up being less than what we took to West Brom in midweek

Can’t be arsed myself, not a great day Brum and we always get dicked there anyway.

Yes mate, Friday night game, so should be fun.

Blackburn sales going quite slow for us a week on Saturday.

How many?

Do you ever take that many there anyway? I might be wrong, but going off memory, you don’t particularly take that many there.

2.8k for a midweeker last time out

They'll still take over 3k, even though they're doing shit and about as exciting to watch as , well I'm not sure I can think of anything that bad to compare actually.

That’s not bad. Just don’t seem to recall you taking anywhere near what you could take there.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Sold 2,250 at present

 

[SoutheySWFC]

About 5/6k one boxing day I recall but rest just average, well to us, shit to Leeds but fucking amazing to most other clubs in the league.

 

[villa loyal]

We seem to travel alright to Blackburn, but never filled the end. Wednesday will probably have around 3200 there then, which is decent for a team not doing well.

 

[Gerry Gow]

Sold 750 for Leeds at present with no POTD available. 250 tickets remaining.

Should get around 900 which isn’t bad all things considered.

 

[villa loyal]

Good following that .

 

[Gerry Gow]

Gonna make the game this week GG or you not going mate?

I won’t be bothering mate. Working up here so can’t justify to stay another night, pay £40 quid for a ticket and watch us lose 4 on the bounce.

Sort of game we will sneak a result though.

 

[Jamo]

That's a cracking following from City considering they don't usually travel great north of Birmingham, the cost and their form. 900 would be more than they've brought to Barnsley in the last decade when they've been in better form and tickets were much cheaper (23-25 quid).

 

[Derby1971]

You’re taking 1,500 to Sheffield you toucher.

You need to get your facts right, 2850, sold at present, looks like a 3000 following, or maybe sell out, sold Stoke out midweek, all close I admit, but still not bad at this time of year, how many will you lot bring to Derby, about 800. It's on the 22nd of December if you needed to know.

I usually love the game before Christmas as a Christmas booze up but what’s Derby like as a day for away fans? Last season 3 of us decided to get the train as a last minute job and it was a Friday night game, got off at the station and the pub outside wasn’t welcoming to City fans, had a look around, couldn’t find anywhere else and didn’t really have long so just went and got a taxi to the ground and had a couple of quick drinks in the concourse...

 

[SoutheySWFC]

if you get past the Stasi plod you can head in to town and have a few beers without hassle

 

[Gerry Gow]

Went to Derby a while back. This was when Gavin Williams scored for us, so it was a few years ago. We lost 2-1.

They wouldn’t let any away fans in the boozers, shops near the ground. So we were then stuck in the concourse, only then to be greeted by gloating Derby fans on the way out.

Wank away day.

 

[tiltontrev]

Derby is fine for a piss up, ignore the bizzies, town centre is a ten minute walk from the station, plenty of boozers almost none have any football fan bias, yellow cab to the ground for about a fiver. Pub just up from the station after the game.

If theyre open for Brummies it’ll be open for almost anyone, they dont like us very much.

Oh so that's why you never turn up, plenty of good real ale pubs in Derby to go to, most grounds in England do not let away fans in, near the stadium, Leeds,Wednesday, Man United, Chelsea I could go on and on, that's why Bristol never turn up to away games, no pubs near the ground lol.

Neither do we, there’s still loads good places to booze in Bristol though. I don’t mind about being near the ground, just wondered if there was anywhere good to drink as if it’s the same as last year I won’t bother. Sounds alright though.

To be fair Derby has plenty of good pubs in the city, just look them up on google, if your after good ale pubs with good food try the Exeter, Brewary Tap, Silk Mill and the Dolphen, all near to each other, and are friendly places to go, and serve the best Ale in the City, and yes you are right, as a city Bristol has a lot to offer. If you do turn up, try a few of the pubs I have mention.

 

[QPR_Matt]

Looks like we won't sell out Stoke away, which is pretty shit. Only got a 1500 allocation, so that should be selling out really. Only about £30 to get there and £25 for the ticket. Sold just over 1000 so far I believe. It will probably end up around 1300 or so.

 

[Brad-Owl]

2,800 sold for Blackburn now, 48 hours of general sale given it a little boost, couple of good results in 2 home games coming up should boost it further.

Couple of 0-0 draws should see 5 or 6k making the journey then.

 

[roversfan2001]

Sales not going great for Wigan next Wednesday, less than 1,500. Was never gonna be massive after 5,500 on Saturday but thought we’d hit 2k at least. Having two of the three local away games within 4 days of each other is shite like.

We’ve sold around the same for Bolton the following Saturday.

Birmingham have decided to take a decent following up to our gaffe for a change. Not far off 4k sold for our game just before Christmas. Not a clue how many Reading are bringing Saturday, but it’s Reading so yeah probably the usual 500ish.

 

[Muzzle]

450+ sold for Millwall

 

[SoutheySWFC]

How many for the Tuesday after Muzzle?
