Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Millerbri]

Thought the rotherham fan said they were taking over 3k

Not sure where the 3000 figure came from TBH.
The Club said they had sold just short of 2000 on Thursday though, so the 1986 looks a bit disappointing given that there was pay on the day at the original prices.
Still, after the awful performance against Cardiff to take over 20% of our average home crowds isn't too shabby, especially as we haven't won at Huddersfield since God were a lad.

Shock horror i know but I thought it was a shit turnout, it's local and not expensive, surely 3k should he expected. We took 2.3k on sky and that was wank.

 

[Millersfan]

Yeah but you get double our home crowds.

Not arsed about how many we took as it won't get us points, but dunno how it's ended up at 1900 when we'd sold that on Thursday and had a load of pay-on-the-dayers. All our group paid on the gate.

Oh well. Great 3 points!

 

[Millerbri]

What Millersfan said.
Don't forget we aren't Massive.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Rotherham away sold out, small allocation mind.

 

[mpmbee]

Sold 3,000 tickets for Fulham in the first two days of sale apparently. I knew we'd sell a lot but didn't think they would go this quickly.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

1116 Brighton at Reading

 

[Bobbin']

Poor from Millwall.

Have reduced our allocation from 3,003 to 2,017 on 'security reasons' in the middle of sales.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

2,362 Bolton there tonight..... Left gutted by Jordan Rhodes.

Surprised rhodes hasnt been given a go in the premier league hes got a more than respectable scoring record year after year and hes only young

 

[markwwfc1992]

Being half decent + young + English = fucking expensive

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Every side has played 36 games so a little update

 

[Walkley_Owl]

This table is based on mileage and gives a different perspective, the Miles is the total they will do over a season.

 

[mpmbee]

4,700 sold for Fulham now and our allocation has been upped to 6,800.

 

[markwwfc1992]

I know it's local but thats some good numbers for Brentford.

 

[Bobbin']

703 Blackburn

 

[Walkley_Owl]

1008 Reading
355 Millwall
2657 Forest
444 ipswich
747 Huddersfield
604 Fulham
1502 Cardiff
2111 Wulfs
1145 Wigan
378 Blackpool

 

[markwwfc1992]

2111 is good for a mid table clash down on the south coast

You're just outside the play offs .... Cheeky git

 

[Nook Terrier]

Awful numbers from us, but I'm not surprised - we're awful to watch.

Next away game is Blackpool on the last day, I'm tempted to jack the game and just stay in the pub for that too.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Struggling to get figures for Derby at Norwich and Wigan at Rotherham.

 

[Munkiki]

Probably about 1,500ish. I'll find out on Saturday for you.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

thanks, need the official Ipswich number too if possible, ta.

Actually I thought it was a good show. Other than the London clubs, it was Brighton's second highest number of visitors for a League match this season behind just Wednesday on the opening day of the season. I think it might even have been Brighton's second-highest League gate of the season after the Fulham game. Not bad from both sets of fans. (But due credit to Leeds for bringing 1,815 on a Tuesday night)

Brighton deserves a lot of credit for their approach to their own and visiting support. How many other clubs subsidise free bus and rail travel for about a 10 mile radius. At the ground, there were posters welcoming Wolves and thanking us for travelling "386 miles" to watch the match. Both stewards and local police were friendly, which might not have been the case, even the attack on a Watford fan in Wolverhampton a week before. At one point while waiting on the ramp down to the station platform at Falmer, my missus and I were the only (obvious) Wolves fans in a massive sea of blue and white. Everyone was friendly and chatted to us about the game. Not one unpleasant or aggressive comment. I just wish people felt as welcome in away colours in Wolverhampton as we did at Brighton Saturday.

 

[TheGas]

Is that reading figure really poor or is it just me? Swear it's like 45 miles away

 

[Madejski]

A bit, but who pays for a £25 ticket to see their reserve/youth team play? The management/club weren't bothered about the game, so why should the fans?

Watford may also be reasonably close, but it takes ages to get there. By train from Reading you can get to Birmingham quicker than you can get to Watford!

Also i'd imagine the cost of the two Bradford games hasn't helped, £130 for ticket+travel last weekend.

3500 Leeds end tickets sold for Fulham on Wednesday and loads more in the mixed area that don't get counted.

Were you smileywhite on TFF?

 

[Walkley_Owl]

I doubt it..... Their usernames aren't remotely similar.

Shut up
