Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Kendalcufc]

Think we sold out whatever we got in 1997, I was on the terrace

That was the FA Cup 4th round. I did think of that game but the East Stand was Carlisle only that day.

 

[F!RTHY]

Shame.

Hoping we could possibly get 10,000+ in that game. You should be able to manage the 2,000?

In the last 25 years I think the only clubs to sell out the full allocation are Tottenham, Arsenal, Leeds and Everton.

EDIT: Not Arsenal, terrace was closed that day. It was closed for Tottenham as well.

So that's only Leeds and Everton!

We seem to have played you around Xmas/New Year period on a few occasions now. Think we managed 1,800 last season on NYD, so I’d like to think we’d surpass 2,000+ given we’re competitive for a change.

That and there’s a bit of needle now given the City rejects you currently have in your squad.

Looks like we’ve got a bunch of Rangers loyalist c*** in the away end today to go with our usual dickhead crew. With train strikes and derailments making the trip from London impossible by train they’re going to be very visible ‍

 

[Son of Cod]

1223 Bantams in a crowd of 8020 at Blundell Park. Good noise from both sets of fans too.

Fair play to Bradford that's hardly any no shows.

 

[E10rifle]

257 Orient. Pretty outstanding support all things considered.

Kudos to them all.

But mental the lot of them, each and every one.

Is there terrace still open for away fans if necessary?

Your lot cost me over £500 yesterday

Never count on us to win, I’ve learnt the hard way.

 

[AdamStag]

458 mansfield fans at crawley, which is a pretty decent following if i may say so myself

Brunton Park capacity is 17,949 which includes the use of the Waterworks End (Petteril End) for away supporters if needed.

That's very similar to Blundell Park's capacity before it was vandalised by the post-Hillsborough legislation and had to become all-seater.

We had 5,000 seats and about 12,500 terrace capacity t that point. Last time we filled it was v Spurs in about 91. Biggest crowd I've been in at BP was v Wolves in 79 - 23k, all but about 2.5k would have been standing that night.

462 GTFC at Barrow.

I was 50/50 yesterday about going myself with my lad, best decision I ever made was saying no.

Good numbers - must have blocked the Blackwall Tunnel with all those caravans.

You might have ended up here if you had gone...

...that has to be one of the worst views in the country there. And that's saying something considering we went to Bromley, Wealdstone and Kings Lynn last season!

your only shot on target was at the other end so you didn't miss anything.

BEEF! In all seriousness though, wtf is with that view? It's shocking. There's two of those fences, one to the right of the home fans and one to the left of the away. Get rid of the one closest to the away fans and tarpaulin the standing area in no man's land to segregate the home and away fans. Absolutely no need for people to be paying money to not see one of the goals.
