Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[les.gtfc]

Could possibly be our lowest away league following for many a year tonight. Only 12 on the supporters (mini)bus tonight.

I don't think we've had a sub 100 league following for a long,long time.

Grimsby's away following bandwagon well and truly gone then?

I don't think there ever was a bandwagon to be fair, we've always had a decent away following. It's just most fans are sick and fed up of Russell Slade's tactics, no win in 9 games (6 defeats) and only 3 goals in that time.

I wish we were that good!

Excuse me, there's room for only one bandwagon in Lincolnshire!

Crewe have always seemed to have the worst away support in relation to home crowds.

Why is this?

Colchester are similar.

No we're not, our percentage of home fans taken away is pretty average going off the most recent table I can recall seeing for that particular statistic. Consider also that we typically have more miles to travel than the vast majority of teams too.

Yep, also a guy at work who goes to every away game without fail on what they call the 'boozy bus' with usually around 15-20 of em isn't going either as not enough of em want to go to make it worthwhile, they're watching it in the Warehouse down Freemo instead.

791 Chairboys at Luton.

 

[GTFCfish]

129 poor bastards at Yeovil tonight, given our abysmal form that is remarkable in my opinion I thought around 80-90.

 

[Roger Stone]

76 Newport

It must be our Navy exiles up from Plymouth, maybe a few students from Bristol Uni, there can't be that many people that have temporarily lost their sanity and travelled from Gy...

Most of our regular away support is The Fishy at the moment - 860 on it discussing the fiasco down in the south west...

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Fair play to you for travelling all that way on a Tuesday.

Yes, I also thought we might dip below 100, just shows how stupid some of us are. Bloody glad I didn't bother. My interest in football is going through a downward spiral at the moment, not helped by what's going on in Cleethorpes.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Any idea of the Swindon following last night?

 

[djs]

237 according to Stevenage official twitter.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Cheers DJS.

Seems low for Swindon mind.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

181 Rovers at SJP - nope, 141 from the announcement.

 

[mowgli]

298 Carlisle at Adams Park.

 

[gijsbert_bos]

555 Swindon at Lincoln.

 

[Crewelad87]

Exactly 1400 Crewe at Notts. So 50 no shows.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

992 Coventry at TNL.

 

[northstandexile]

114 red devils at the Prozac
184 exiles at Weston homes
92 robins at Cleethorpes

79 bees at the mill
117 shrimps in Burslem
151 U's in zummerset

17k there , superb turnout.

555 Swindon at Lincoln.

Thought a few more might have come considering their excellent away form.
Still decent numbers mind.

In English please?

 

[SoutheySWFC]

it makes sense fella.

 

[Andy Proctor]

It would be alot easier to understand if it said 114 Morecambe at vale instead of using nicknames towns or ground name's that people don't know of. Basically I don't know half the away following now because of this.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

He's been doing it for years though, nowts changed.

 

[Conker]

Does a good job too.
