Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[les.gtfc]

Well they initially sent us 200 odd which we sold out, they then sent us another 400 which we've sold out. Hopefully they'll send us some more advance tickets or else it will mean all our fans having to pay an extra £2 on the day. Why they could have sent us say 1000 initially I don't know.

More sent by Orient now making our allocation around the 1200 mark. We've already sold close to 1000 and could sell our total allocation, such is the interest that Ian Holloway has brought to the club.

It's not all-ticket as far as I know so it could be interesting if a couple of hundred turn up wanting to pay on the day if they only allocate around 1300 places for away fans.

Steady on. Pretty sure that you’ll not have 300+ turning up on the day. And if you did, we have cash turnstiles in the home ends and a friendly enough home support.

Re: pubs, the Coach has been done up but you’re not missing out. The Northcote (lively backstreet boozer), The Birkbeck (formerly-lively backstreet boozer), The Leyton Star (good boozer a short walk in the opposite direction to the ground once you come out of the station) and The Leyton Technical (hipster craft beers aplenty) are all within 10 minutes walk of the ground.

Best of the lot if you’re turning up early (12:00-13:00) is the Supporters’ Club. It’ll cost you a quid to get in, but you’ll make that back on the first pint. Usually around 20 guest beers on over the course of the afternoon. Only drawback is you might end up having a pint with me.

The Leyton Technical is highly recommended.

Usually start at Ye Olde Cittie of Yorke and work our way along the Central Line until we fall off the tube for the game. Loved the Leyton Technical last game we played at Orient, high ceiling, old chandelier and good real ales.

Yeah, the Tech is a good boozer (if £5 a pint). Particularly good a couple of hours after the game when there’s an even split between local hipsters and trashed football fans. How is the Cittie these days? Used to be one of my regular haunts when I worked in Holborn.

Some extra good news for our fishy friends is that the O-nut is making its final appearance of the season. Well worth grabbing one.

Ok, I’ll bite. What the fuck is an O-nut?

One of these bad boys:

Over 1,000 sold for Salford tomorrow. Hell of an effort for a three hour journey.

 

[Crewelad87]

Over 1,000 sold for Salford tomorrow. Hell of an effort for a three hour journey.

Seems like about 75% of the league have taken 1000 + to Salford.

All the anoraks ticking the ground off

‘ooh Trevor this is my 89th isn’t that exciting!!!’

It's still a lovely old pub and of course cheap, as it's a Sam Smith's house.

When in London I like to do a pub crawl from the Princess Louise along High Holborn, ending up at Black Friars. Some classic old bars and plenty to choose from (Fleet Street included).

Will be a big shock for them next season if they are budgeting for the same away crowds.

Best away fans in E10 this season by a country mile. Probably the last 5 or 6 years tbh.

 

[SELatic]

Seen the exact figure somewhere - think it was 872 Latics at Macc. Down from 1800 last year - cheers Mr Lemsagam, club is on its arse

 

[Andy Proctor]

313 vale at stevenage

 

[Crewelad87]

No official figure anywhere for Crewe at Swindon. Looked around 350 though.

Top day, home fans joined in second half and good atmosphere. Friendly stewards as well.

Looked and felt like more but hey ho

Grimsby following is ridiculous, wonder what they'd take if they were any good

Wow that is shockingly wank

Yep but also unsurprising. There’s a boycott planned for Saturday’s home game. It’s not a happy place to be at the moment and after 25 years of decline, our current owners have finally managed to kill off any support and enthusiasm we had left
