[JonBCFC]

I was going to go through all the home teams and their average home crowds...

Dedication to the bait!

 

[TTOCS]

Crack on Tommo, remember to take out the away fans from the numbers though

Can we not talk about how many more dogs will be at my local sunday league match compared to how many tickets you sold for gillingham the other month instead?

Youre allowed to bring dogs to the memorial dump now?

Oh, brilliant.

 

[JonBCFC]

Oh, brilliant.

You didn't answer his question.

 

[TTOCS]

More Bristolians at Stadium MK than the Mem on Saturday?

Probably not quite but only because, weirdly, they haven't had a home game for almost 6 weeks.

 

[blademan89]

Only 1600 tickets for scunny with no further allocation anyone know why they dont give the side anymore

 

[Josesemedosjockstrap]

Donny.... Definitely their fault.

Maybe they don't like you. We got the side last time.

Town were on the side for the FA Cup game at Scunny a few weeks back and behind the goal.
You'll eventually get the side bit, taking it to around 2200ish. That's about what we took last year in the League.
(They can't risk Blades all over the ground)

 

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Sheffield United have by far the best away attendances in the league, but it's interesting that we have to travel over 1000 more miles to games over the season than them (2000 if you include round trips). Of course Sheffield United are a lot bigger than us anyway so would always take more, but if we were based up north our away attendances would be significantly better.

Our average will be dropping a bit this month weve got 5 away games in the next 3 weeks gillingham,bristol city and crawley will all be less than 1k and notts county,rochdale both tuesday nights so they wont be that big either probably 2000 at notts and 1500 at rochdale

You should do, I don't see any reason why you wouldn't when Donny and Chesterfield have already this season.

Me neither just going on what it says on our site

Yeah, frustrating how London/Northern clubs get so many local(ish) fixtures compared to ourselves. Although this league is probably better than the Championship for us in terms of the closeness of away fixtures.

It is frustrating. Says a lot when we consider Mk a close game... 2 and a half hours away! I'd say the Championship is about the same, Birmingham, Wolves, Cardiff, Reading, and to a lesser extent the London clubs being the closest for us.

 

[Ciderup]

We are obviously doing our bit to back our team with 5k minimum travelling to MK but I have a horrible feeling we might leave empty handed but we will still be there. In all honesty, I am looking forward to this one more than Wembley as the real fans are travelling, not the day trippers!

I wish Bristol City fans would stop complaining about the placement of their town, if you're that assed, move to the midlands.

I've never seen a Yeovil fan complaining about distance.

I agree about the northern based teams, but London?
Orient are the only London team in the division.
We are not far from London but we only have three teams in the entire division that are within 100 miles of us.

 

[TheGas]

I don't see the problem being from Bristol. It could be a lot worse. Any team South of Manchester is less then 2 and half hours. London games are easy too. I feel for plymouth if anybody. Teds have swindon, mk Dons, Chesterfield, Sheffield United, notts county. Port vale. Walsall. Coventry. Crewe. Orient. Crawley and yeovil all with in 3 hours. Isn't that bad is it? Suppose we can chuck gillingham in with that as that's less then 3 hours

This won't happen unless you take more then 6,000 because I can't see our crowd being less then that and what's the achievement in taking more away then ' the tiny pointless non league club from up the road ' as you call us get at home anyway?

 

[Luke_ciderhead]

Youre right. Its no achievement at all.

Sorry fella, my mistake.

Good points raised about the distances we travel though. For example Chesterfield and Notts County fans bringing shit crowds because we're one of their furthest away games. They are one of our closest! Just a quirk of the division this year rather than Bristol being out on a geographically limb, unlike Plymouth.

 

[Cashis]

Said it before, I'll say it again. Can't wait for Bristol City to fuck off.

If you'll do me the pleasure, read this in the voice of Dobbie from The Peep Show:

"Fuck off. Just fuck off".

Thanks.

Trust me...we can't wait either and we'll do our very best I'm sure!
