Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[ROVERS⚽️]

maybe someone away at MK with that big away capacity possibly ?

That’s a good shout but haven’t they only spent a few seasons in league two?. I know they’ll break the records for away followings at there ground for the two leagues above probably.

 

[ROVERS⚽️]

Mansfield fetched 5,100 to MK in 2019. They prob took 4,000+ to Notts when the Kop was the away end. Walsall took big numbers to Notts in 2006/2007.

Possibly Hartlepool at Darlington in 2007?

I think plenty of clubs could fetch 4,000+ if grounds could accommodate them.

Isn’t that more than Mansfield averaged at home that season haha!. That figure may be it then 5100 must be hard to beat!. Darlington’s away end, was that like MK dons type size, suppose Hartlepool would have took a few thousand right but over 5k?.

 

[ROVERS⚽️]

I’d imagine Coventry would have that season they were down here or close to it at least. Maybe to somewhere like Notts.

Good shout but I don’t think Coventry’s figures were as high as people think back then which is understandable all considering the troubles they had. Wouldn’t surprise me though.

 

[Scum.]

Didn't Wolves take 10k there in League One?

No, 8,943. We took 11,573 to Stadium:MK on the same day. In summary, Wolves are tinpot.

we took over 5k to Darlo in league 2 in march 2006

Lincoln to MK at the height of Cowley mania?

We took 5,556 in that 2019 game

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

It never gets mentioned but we used to take about 500-600 odd to Grimsby and once took a disappointing following to Port Vale about 15 years ago.

Damn that 1 extra person who ruined what would’ve been a lovely symmetrical number.

It was a Scunny fan who went with an Imp supporting friend...

I've a vague recollection that might have been mentioned before you know...

Must have missed it.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

At least you can offer the larger away capacity though that's what irks me we can only off 1k or whatever it is to the better supported clubs whereas Donny can offer what 3k ? Thats a 2k fans difference in income in our respective games .

3k is the max now, we have allowed 4,200 in the past but that is giving the away team too much of an advantage plus in those games there is more demand for tickets from home supporters

 

[Crewelad87]

Does anyone have a figure for Barrow at Crewe on Saturday?

274

We had 4000 odd at Sheff U, Sheff Wed and Forest on occasions a few years back I’m fairly certain. Had both tiers at both Sheffield clubs and the full end at Forest if I remember rightly

Mansfield gave us 3 sides one year too, both behind the goals and down the side when that was open. Not sure what it equated too but probably a similar number

We were referring to L2 fixtures, pal.

We’ve had more than our fair share of 4,000+ followings in the above leagues.

If the criteria is stretching...we took 25,000 to North West London once.

We took 61,000 to Wembley within the space of 12 week.

 

[mozzavale]

We took 40,000 in the space of 1 week

 

[FiRTHYY]

We took 40,000 in the space of 1 week

That’s not even two-thirds as impressive as ours.

So nerrrr.

 

[mozzavale]

There were no trains on and it kicked off at 12.30

 

[Limerick Mariner]

We took 61,000 to Wembley within the space of 12 week.

50k for us in 98.

No precise numbers for our 79/80 div 3 championship winning season, but deducting expected home fan numbers, I'd estimate 6.5/7k to Hull, 5k to Mansfield, and 4k to Chesterfield and Rotherham, plus 3k including a number of plane loads to Reading.

 

[mozzavale]

We took 8k to Man City, whilst in league 2. Still a record away following at the Etihad. Massivest

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

We sold out our allocation at the Juventus Stadium, have you?

 

[FiRTHYY]

We unofficially had 9,000 at Dale one Tues night in 2008.
