Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Indian Dan]

Once Doyle and Yates get recalled in Jan, there’s not a chance in a month of Sunday’s of you being anywhere near the play-offs, never mind the title, sunshine.

Yeah, sure! You know as well as I do Doyle ain’t returning.

 

[F!RTHY]

Yeah, sure! You know as well as I do Doyle ain’t returning.

It’ll be interesting to see how things pan out, that’s for sure. You can’t afford his wages, we can if we decide to utilise relevant revenue streams. He doesn’t suit our style of play and he’s disliked in these parts. I’d sell him, personally. Otherwise, bring him back and watch you lot drop down the league - just for’t laugh.

What a bitter little man, and its the season of good will to all men......... but I'll still wish a merry Christmas and a happy new year to you.

Bitter for saying I’d be happy to sell him. Strange comment.

Merry Christmas you filthy animal.

 

[redjed]

No my friend...... I was talking about you laughing about us dropping down if you brought him back. ,

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

We'd probably have good laugh at that as well...

 

[HutchECFC]

We'd also have a good laugh at it too.

 

[GTFCfish]

We wouldn’t, we’re nice up North.

 

[E10rifle]

A predictably tragic 790 from Colchester.

 

[EricSabin]

430 Cobblers at Crawley watching us get pumped 4-0. See Mansfield fans, we just didn’t want to travel to your dump of a town.

 

[kieran_vale]

953 Vale at Mansfield.

 

[GTFCfish]

439 Grimsby at Macclesfield.

 

[Kauto Star]

1523 Bantams at Carlisle

 

[denzel ecfc]

521 Exiles at Exeter

 

[Crewelad87]

1192 Crewe at Salford

 

[AdamStag]

Good stuff. Perhaps your support was dire at the weekend simply because no-one wants to go to Mansfield?

(Well, except players looking for a fat wage with no expectations).

In honesty it was just a shit silent following, thats about the jist of it.

Maybe we might take more than 400 to the uninspiring dull trip to Northampton though!

 

[AdamStag]

Mansfield is a weird one, we usually take 1000-1500 to Chesterfield and similar to Notts County but in our two visits to Mansfield in recent years we've only taken 400-500 or so, imagine be a larger following Boxing Day mind.

Both are easier on the train really, Mansfield is from stoke to Nottingham then onwards whereas you can do chesterfield and notts direct, that would affect the following.

 

[northstandexile]

1222 Argyle at Cheltenham
796 Latics at Morecambe
1192 Crewe at Salford
146 FGR at Boro
missing Walsall at Scunny
and Cambridge at Swindon

Of course Chesterfield and Nottingham are more popular trips for away fans in the East Mids.

Even Mansfield take more to Nottingham than they do to Mansfield.

 

[northstandexile]

264 saddlers at scunny

still no news on Cambridge at Swindon

 

[Crewelad87]

All the money Salford have invested into there playing squad. The facilities at the ground are awful. A couple of portaloo s for 1200 away fans is ridiculous.

Was the same in August, not sure their ground plans longer term but needs sorting

 

[Crewelad87]

Also had to laugh at a good portion of there "fans" (all wearing half the Man Utd club shop) leaving with about 10 mins to go, probably to get infront of a TV to watch the Man Utd game.

Even worse for a sell out

 

[F!RTHY]

We’re currently averaging 1,125!

As I’m sure with most clubs, the average would’ve been much higher had some clubs been able to allocate more tickets.

Not many decent away trips left, but I guess we’ll sell out for Mansfield, Oldham, Salford and FGR (if there’s any importance on it).

All the others are very much meh!

 

[Indian Dan]

Not coming to the CG next Saturday?

 

[Indian Dan]

264 saddlers at scunny

still no news on Cambridge at Swindon

No more than 200 I reckon

That’s what we need to work on, improving the away end, there’s some massive away ends in the bananarama league for instance where the average away following is 13 - as it would be in such a tinpot league (I remember those awful days) yet our away is only 1800 - sides like chesterfield and Lincoln would regularly sell out but no-one else - but advantageous to have the larger stands for when it matter.

I see the Mariners have been relegated off this list, we've also been relegated off the 1 pm kick off schedule...

Well the last 3 followings have been 550, 1250 and 1500 so well you haven’t really sold out.

More pleased about the 1pm KOs being abolished though
