Stickied League One Away Support Thread 2024/25

[Franchisor]

Attendances from today, if anyone could fill in the gaps with either confirmed away figures or fair estimates then please do so..

Blackpool 1-0 MK Dons - 3,412 (?)

567 MK Dons @ Blackpool.

That is a bit unfair on Charlton who brought as many as Exeter did last year.

Thought our following was ok today considering we had over 300 on Tuesday down at Exeter, that's some travelling in the space of 4 days.

Great following from MK Dons.. fanbase slowly but surely getting loyal enough to follow MK away.

10 years ago it wound have been 67!

 

[FiRTHYY]

Only 521 from Bradford at Priestfield today. Poor considering the size of their home crowds

Damn good following if you ask me.

Absolutely arse end of no where, fuck all there with question marks still being raised from some quarters of our support.

I expected us to take less.

Will we average 521 throughout this season? - Nope.

Will we average 3x that - likely.

Let's move on.

Very good following from Donny yesterday, fully deserved their win, also a good following from Chalton to Plymouth and 500+ from Bradford to Gillingham considering they've done that journey plenty of times is quite good imo.

Edit: Forgot to mention Pompeys excellent support.

 

[K-Win]

1,810 Pompey at Oxford

Decent atmosphere as well with some old school chanting on occasion.

 

[Millerbri]

Very impressed with the 40 - 50 Southend supporters outside the Spoons Bluecoat yesterday.
Plenty of banter, a few songs and no animosity at all, if you were one of them it was my lad who took the photos for you.
Desperately depressed about the amount of half full and even nearly full drinks left on the tables when you set off to the ground.............you'll never make Yorkshiremen, we're too tight to leave owt.
Still, at £2.30 a pint I suppose it's like buy one get one free at your prices..........I still couldn't leave it though!
Also well done to the ones that stayed to the end, we had plenty of thumpings last year so we know what its like.

 

[RobboPOSH]

Seems to be quite a few poor crowds/followings across the country today...

Just 293 Peterborough went to Bristol..

Oldham took 1,000 to Walsall last season looks about 350 today.

We don't travel
We don't sing
Not many of us stand

We're normally all too pissed and we win a few.

 

[roversfan2001]

1163 Bury at Wigan

Missing:
Oldham @ Walsall
Scunthorpe @ Rochdale (est 750)
Doncaster @ Blackburn (est 1500)

Donny sold just under 1100 in advance, add on potd to that.

...We also have quite a large non-white following who probably did not fancy a 450+ mile round trip to have to endure the usual racism that awaits them when we take our usual 3 points home from gasland.

Strange comment.

Strange comment.

Think it's because Rovers have had complaints regarding their fans and racism at both their games this season.

Still, a ridiculous comment.

Yeah it's fucking shit. Like most clubs we have a few fucking morons who follow us. All I can do is apologise to Charlton and posh for said morons. Happily they have been called out for it by other fans and hopefully will be banned for life.

Still obsessed with us I see. You're a sad person.

I'm not even sure who was supposed to have been abused, was it players, fans, stewards?

Against posh it was our player and some of theres. At Charlton it was some of your players, stewards, fans. These twats don't need an excuse though. I know for a fact a couple these wankers got a pasting on the Gloucester Road afterwards. Playing up when they were told to stfu.

Not obssessed whatsoever...but as a non-white Posh fan who travels to all away games I can think of a handful of times I have been abused because of my race since the early 90's when things started to turn. 3 of them have been at Bristol Rovers matches...you are right it does make me a bit sad.

But I accept your apologies. Thanks

Over half of your posts are about us. You're a sad weirdo

Obviously that is inexcusable, but doesn't make your statement any less ridicules. To just single out Bristol Rovers as some king of mindless thugs, because of a few idiots.

We had "a town full of Isis" chanted at us against Sheffield United and Millwall a couple of seasons ago, by a minority of idiots, but it didn't affect our numbers the season after. What a ridicules statement just because of a crap following.

I expect I should be used to some name calling from you lot.

To be fair it was a tongue in cheek statement which I thought was apparent by the smiley...well done on your brilliant away support though.

You implying I'm a racist there comrade?

It's not brilliant, were have I said that, the point is regardless of our shit followings we don't blame it on a clubs supporters been racist. Wum.

I actually do think your away support is brilliant as will be seen come the end of the season...no wonder this site is visited by so few people. Everyone seems a bit precious and get their panties in a twist very easily !
