Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[valefan16]

Sold out the roughly 850 Walsall sent us now. Pay on the day available aswell.

Oddly they seemed to have sold us some seats down the side and others behind the goal, I'm sure it's usually one or the other.

Depends what your allocation is, last time we took 2k plus so had behind the goal and half way down the side.

Only 515 tickets, but not too bad given distance and league position

Think we are at about 900 for Wimbledon. With what the home ST holders have been witnessing recently maybe they are nearly all London and SE Mariners…

The game is more or less sold out on Saturday . Well in home sections anyway.

Good following that is, more than what vale are taking to Gillingham.

And there will be empty seats again due to non-attending ST holders. That really grinds my gears. 75% pro rata refund isn't working as it should because people can't be arsed.

As said only 850 so far, but half are down the side and half behind the goal.

Another block has been opened for us although only a few extra seats have been released so far. We usually do reasonable pay on the day sales so should be at about a thousand.

Yes I agree. What we really need is a couple of thousand extra seats. I guess it's going to take at least 3 or 4 year's for any future ground development.

Have we had it confirmed that we can pay on the gate? I wasn't gonna go as I was working but I've had to cancel my shift as I'm now in London with my missus for a hospital appointment at 11.20, so all being well I might be able to get to the match.

You can buy now online in the away end direct from Wimbledon

Some of our lot have chosen to boycott Crewe away next month.

£28 + fees = almost £30. It’s L2 FFS.

It’s on SKY and kicks off at 12:30pm. Usually, we’d fetch 1,500-2,300 but I think they’ll be very fortunate if we shift 1,000 for this one.

Ridiculous price for a televised 4th division game. You can watch Bayern Munich for 15 Euro.

The TV deal is shite. Every club should get, on top of the lump sum payment, a payment for each televised game to enable ticket prices to be reduced.

To be fair our CEO did say that the deal was far better than previous deals

Until a regulator comes in and stops clubs fleecing fans, clubs will continue to rip people off, like what Crewe do. Absolute honking prices for 4th tier football.

Its a terrible pricing, and the facilities are not great, Peterborough the same but lets be honest £28 or £25 like most of us its still bad for 4th tier, especially when most Prem teams have the £20 away pricing.

£30 in the Prem.

There's meant to be a cap in the EFL soon, isn't there? Seen that most clubs have voted for it.

It could be a short sighted view. One of good things following 3 / 4 / 5th tier football has been mostly ( police SAG decisions aside ) not being fecked with ko times. On top of that there is this blanket coverage of midweek games. We’ve already seen some diminution in away support numbers, we can’t see impact on home crowds because of the tickets sold “attendances”. This is the first season of the deal so ST renewals will be interesting.

Me and a few mates live down south and always just use the one's anywhere down as an excuse for a bit of a session , a couple i know don't go to any home games but just the more southern one's /away games . We have a hell of a lot of exiled fans both abroad and other places in the uk ; many leave the Town don't they I think . There are always one's I see who go from Grimsby to every away game though - got talking to a lad at Gillingham actually who's doing every game this season home & away in every competition even that trophy thing - dedication that , I couldn't do it lol . Does anyone else on here do every game following their team ?

I did one full season 51/51 in 04/05 I think it was when I was still at school. Done 40+ a few times but moved away at 18 and only came back in 2020 but got back into it despite having two young kids. Just started taking my son now, he’s only been to three games so far but hoping he gets into it and the early signs are good!
Usually do about 10 home 10 away now as I have to pick and choose

Pffft poor effort, a boycott should be at least 3,000 as confirmed by AFCW’s first visit and boycott of Stadium:MK.

1015 Grimsby out of a crowd of 8307 at Plough Lane.

[mozzavale]

523 Vale at Gillingham. With Morecambe next week that will be our 5th away game including Notts on 4th Oct, out of 7 league games in that time. Plus the FA Cup match to pay for last week. So expensive at the moment. I won't be giving any club grief for low numbers these days. Walsall sold an impressive 1,000 in the first 24 hours for our game 7th Dec. Really hope we give them the full 3.1k for that end when they sell the initial 2k. More chance of them returning the favour later in the season then.

100% agree. Me and my 17 year old lad 50 quid. At least a tenner more than anyone else for some of the worst facilities in the league.
