Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Posh Red]

433 Happy Swindon fans at Carlisle

 

[leedsvaliant]

Less than 100 Accrington there. Hats off to them, but it's really not good enough for a league club. Especially on a Saturday after pay day.

I'm assuming they're embarrassed for the way their team conducts themselves.

Seen the overall crowd was 6,198. Not seen the away following but didn't look many.

[saddler78]

A whopping 5,970.

Wouldn't be taking the piss when you only bought 700 to us and we took almost a 1000 to you mate our away support is up there compared to what we get at home

We brought just under 1,200 this season?

Can you imagine what we’d bring if we were walking the league - whatever you allocate, it honestly wouldn’t be enough.

We’ve just taken 1,300 to Wimbledon and average 1,250, despite every other ground allocating atrocious numbers.

That is simply because of your catchment area population being greater than that of Walsall. It's because Walsall has far more local competition than Bradford do.

It really isn't hard to understand. You would take a lot more, a Championship level club sized support. Shouldn't surprise anyone.

Alas you are in League Two cos you are shit like the rest of us so your own club's own fault you encounter atrocious away allocations. Be better and you will get bigger away allocations.

Stop acting surprised about teams in League 2 attendances both home and away or away allocations of said League 2 clubs.

Jesus wept indeed.

You’ve got 8,000 seats to fill here if you can.

Be interesting to see if you give out as many as teams need once we're in the business end of the season or the playoffs. Thinking specifically about that match Mansfield last season which basically sent them up and consigned you lot to the playoffs if my memory serves me right? Didn't they have about 5000 there?

 

[Limerick Mariner]

Just over 2k sold for our early Ko at Donny next week. I assume we've been allocated 3k. The result on Saturday will dictate whether we get near that I expect. Win and play-offs chatter will be back, lose and DA should be sacked / why didn't we sign a striker / why didn't we sign Smith at CB. We are still pretty good at avoiding draws - Carlisle feels a nailed on win or lose.

I would have thought so, I don’t think we allocate more than that now

Got to be said - that is a non-tinpot following...

We’re just fucking massive. Soz.

To be honest I’ve heard a lot of people say Bradford fans are massive, although there’s usually another word added on at the end.

169 Bromley at Salford this evening

Total crowd looked about 400, so we did well. . . . .

 

[AlanPep]

So we took more to Salford on a Tuesday night (242 miles) than Salford took to the League leaders Walsall (83 miles) on a Saturday!

Yes alright, we've (well me and DVR) acknowledged that was a non-tinpot level effort, but if you continue to benchmark against the most tinpot of the tinpot that in itself is tinpot...
