Stickied League One Away Support Thread 2024/25

Yes - Big Dave, Fingers, The Scarecrow and Scallys Tortoise were all in attendance.

I hear Big Dave and Fingers got nicked at London Bridge.

 

[F!RTHY]

Fair play to the few hundred Oldham fans at the Ricoh today. Did their best to make the noise and celebrated like they had won the cup when they got the equaliser.

Just celebrating a goal against Coventry, weren't they?

I did not get nicked, I'll leave you to guess which one my nickname is...

I was mis-informed then.

 

[GTFCfish]

Were all your top boys out?

Are you the same guy who used to post on the old Blue Square Premier forum, asking about top boys and did you take the home end etc.?
If you are the same guy then to still be coming out with the same crap 4 years later is pretty sad to be honest pal.
If you are a Crewe fan I guess you are the same guy as I know he was too.

My best mate growing up was a Mariner.His parents were from there.
He used to mention a fella by the name of Geoff Pilling,who was your main man in the late 70's,apparently.
Are the CBP still around,by the way?

 

[Vale on Trent]

The less said about our away following today the better I think!

Bit wank,huh?

 

[DH84]

From the Port Vale website:

Attendance: 4,436. The number of visiting supporters was not given

 

[Jamo]

Caught the last 10 minutes and it didn't look like many. Remember seeing a pic of the 500 odd we had there last season and it didn't look like much more from Vale today.

 

[WFC]

Crap turnout from vale but understood really.

Ko time and day didn't help either sides

 

[valefan16]

Most saved cash and watched it on TV, I'd have gone had it not been on tele, should take a big following boxing day

 

[mozzavale]

Load of lads I know who usually go away didn't bother. Price, time of year, away form etc. No surprise. Most sensible people would acknowledge those reasons, the wums probably won't though.

 

[PUSBCCFC]

Can't imagine many Vale coming to us Saturday?

 

[valefan16]

Can't imagine many Vale coming to us Saturday?

Would expect 1500 or so similar to last year being Boxing Day

More than I expected, fair play.

Won't be anywhere near that many Vale at Coventry this time.
800 maybe.

Actually think we'll take over a thousand? Can't see it myself

 

[mozzavale]

The Coventry game is another reason why today's following was so poor. Expensive time of the year people have to choose their games. Boxing day is the more attractive option. Loads of interest from what I can hear. Be surprised if we take less than 1200. Would have been a few hundred more if we'd have won today.

Prepare to be surprised then.

 

[mozzavale]

Maybe. We'll see.

Indeed.

 

[PUSBCCFC]

A large portion of the Vale fans last season got the train which is why I don't feel they will take similar numbers with more difficulties getting there.

 

[Bartonyellow]

So what was the Vale following today?

 

[Walkley_Owl]

434 Posh

 

[blademan89]

Any idea on ours walkley.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Nope still chasing it up.

 

[Hurrikeen]

Our average this year will be so bad in comparison to previous years.

Depressing shit.

Shelf United tickets were selling very fast for Wigan and then as good as stopped when they got the bigger allocation and they drew Man United. Then I saw the prices of their FA Cup tickets at Old Trafford. Horrible what they are being charged.
Sold 1748 as of yesterday 1630 so Wigan are expecting 2000 to travel which before the draw were expecting 3000 plus. Still 1800 - 2000 would be a great following.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

If it's POTG they'll nudge 2500
