Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Oxon]

2,283 yellows at Carlisle.

 

[Wombletom]

No official figure yet but at least 1400 Wimbledon fans at Stevenage.
Stand was rammed with at least 2 people standing for every seat in the back few rows.

 

[The Terminator]

358 Mansfield at Orient

 

[JJH]

Cracking Oxford effort that is.

 

[Roger Stone]

391 Notts

 

[womble76]

1194 wombles at Stevenage.

 

[northstandexile]

455 Glovers at the hive
1567 green army at the abbey
278 Red Devils at the daggers
114 shrimps at st James
933 Pompey at the pool
391 pies at the Dave
841 hatters at sixfields
1191 dons at the Lamex
584 ultras at Adams park
2000 gas at the kit Kat

 

[Wombletom]

Apparently that stand holds 1200 not 1400 so 1,194 not unreasonable

By this, the South stand has a capacity of 1400. http://www.footballgroundguide.com/...age.html#awhat-is-it-like-for-away-supporters
So...... The 1194 quoted is very unreasonable.

With unallocated seating, it seems to be normal to sell 10-20% below capacity. Is that your explanation?

 

[EricSabin]

Well it very much depends on whether it holds 1,400 or not. Can't find anything official but can't say I'm overly bothered - we sold out whatever we had, made a lot of noise and are in the playoffs

We had 1380 for that stand, which was a sell out

 

[The Terminator]

Always though that the away stand at Stevenage was a 1,200 capacity myself. We've always taken around that number.

 

[Gassy]

Well we just took 1327 the other week to Stevenage, so it must be 1400.

I thought they used the end of the side stand when numbers went over 1200.

 

[GTFCfish]

Oxford and Bristol Rovers are superb followings taking into account the distances travelled.

 

[Gassy]

They could well do, I've never been so can't comment. Just adding to the debate of 1200 really.

Didn't for us, our 1400 or so tickets were all behind the goal

Quite right, I've checked. Despite dire performances, we've usually had more than 1,400 travelling, usually had space along the side as well and always had problems with allocated/unallocated seating capcity and crap stewarding in the South Stand. Occasionally, folk have been told that if they had unallocated seating they'd have to sell less tickets - so they've sold "allocated" seats and in the end left us to sort our selves out.

However, that may explain why Womble thought they'd sold out yet only took 1,194. I know by now no-one cares.

 

[NorfolkWomble]

I was told when I went to collect my ticket that Wimbledon had oversold on the tickets.

 

[ProfessorGreen]

Fair play to our greens, Oxford and Rovers. Some long trips there. (Plymouth-Cambridge the longest in terms of mileage I think). Over 1500 from us is impressive considering fans have money to be saving for the playoffs!

Special Mention to Accy too! Half their home gates!

 

[mowgli]

1,504 Chairboy mugs went to see Oxford's promotion party.

402 Exiles at Wimbledon.

 

[northstandexile]

[rudebwoyben]

321 Bees at Creepy.

 

[Kenneth E End]

Very impressive away support from Exeter today, in what was a dead game.

8,427 at Kenilworth Road today including 310 visiting Grecians.

 

[northstandexile]

155 boro at the crown ground
291 daggers at Bristol but suspect not all daggers
710 Cumbrians at the lane
A massive 2807 cobblers at Fratton
521 poolies at home park
317 Orient at Yeovil

Just yorkies at the seaside missing

 

[Westbars_Spireite]

Brilliant Hartlepool numbers. Easily best of the day.

 

[Richard Cranium]

What is it with away followings on the last day? Some very good ones, especially considering all those playing for 2nd and 3rd place were at home.

 

[rudebwoyben]

I think it's that holiday end of term feeling!

 

[antn1.b]

Amazing what a good season can do to an away gate.

 

[womble76]

Dear accrington Stanley. How many away tickets are you likely to give us for the Wed night? Ta.
