Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Richard Cranium]

Not many clubs have bought they're average to Field Mill this season, only Northampton, Hartlepool, Bury and Accrington. I'm sure York will this Saturday, maybe Tranmere as it's a big game for them however it's a Tuesday night. Sure Shrewsbury will have about 700 here at least too.

For us we've got Southend, Plymouth, Cambridge and Accrington left to play. I'm sure if we beat York we can manage 300 at least to Southend on Good Friday, It's a long bloody way for a nothing game though. We won't have no more than 200 at Plymouth, Cambridge we've been too in the cup already and Accrington we might a decent following just with it being the last day. Last year we had over 700 down in Bristol to wave them off to Non League.

In comparison anyway our average last season was 508. Our lowest following was 115. We've lowered that twice this season, losing Chesterfield and Scunny didn't help and losing Burton and potentially York won't this time either. It's been shite all season aswell.

555 Wycombe last night

Ours should increase too..

1500 already sold for the York match (with another 500 going on sale tomorrow) and I would expect a similar amount going to Carlisle.

Quite an impressive average from Carlisle though!

I'll be highly impressed if Pool bring 2k to York, and 1500 is already extremely impressive. I know it's a relatively short trip, but the last time we had that many in the away end was when 2k Owls showed up for a pre-season friendly.

We can't have been far off 2k last season!

Club confirmed today 1850 sold, 150 remaining!

Should be one hell of an atmosphere then. Looking forward to it, and also dreading it at the same time.

Hartlepool have always brought huge followings to York which are completely unrepresentative of their normal level of support. That's not to say their usual support is bad, just that it's usually much bigger clubs who bring away followings of that size.

I remember one season in the early 2000s when the away following Hartlepool had at York was more than the TOTAL attendance at the return fixture at Victoria Park (which included about 800 of us), which is mental when you think about it.

It's a strange one because York is now one of our more local games along with Carlisle. I think given our current relegation threatened predicament, combined with a string of good results it seems to have rallied the troops for this one. Complete sell out now, 2k sold.

If we hadn't have got ourselves back in with a chance of survival we wouldn't be taking anywhere near what we have sold.

Should be a good day (if we get the 3 points).

Another big Good Friday League 2 attendance this year then! We had 2,330 at Wycombe last GF!

 

[northstandexile]

95 exiles at Stanley tonight

 

[Stanleyfan]

I thought our attendance would be less than 1000 again with England playing - we got just over that.
Well done to the Newport fans traveling on a Fri night a long way

 

[Kenneth E End]

5,668 at Sixfields with 913 from Luton Town (sell out).

 

[Alan Partridge]

476 Carlisle at Oxford.

 

[huddsmoose]

5009 at Hartlepool, including 269 U's

 

[Wombletom]

406 Wombles at Prenton Park.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Ours are usually better than that but we've had a shit season and we haven't played York (already sold 2000 for that) or Carlisle away where we usually take quite a lot so our figure will increase

269 Cambridge today

Our average will probably fall a bit 3 games some distance from Birkenhead, only Mansfield on a Tuesday night isn't a long haul.

 

[B.F.C.]

For the record there was 342 Shrimpers at Gigg Lane according to Buryfc twitter.

500 mile round trip , 12 hours of their lives they won't get back to see 6minutes of meaningless football!

Nobody at fault, apart from Mother Nature, so let's hope that the two clubs can do something for these people!

 

[Grecian O'Grecian]

I suppose Bury could maybe decide to sort out their pitch when they get a moment...

Hartlepool have been given an initial allocation of 1530 for the final game of the season, will most likely get more once they are sold.

Should sell that out Pools fans?

102 hardy souls from Stevenage tonight.
A very good showing considering the weather and the fact that it was on Sky.

Cheers

Wonder what they are all going dressed as this season. If they are safe it could be the biggest party they've had in years!

Given the way the dogfight is going down to the wire I would have thought they will sell in no time

 

[THE TERRACEMAN]

Perhaps Hartlepool fans should go dressed as 2nd World war soldires, airmen and sailors to celebrate the great escape !
