Stickied League One Away Support Thread 2024/25

[E10rifle]

That's a wrap for this season, here's the final figures...
View attachment 18564

Good stattage. Obviously Stevenage will be in the bottom four next season, but Northampton and ourselves should slot in just below halfway with the likes of Exeter Cambridge and Lincoln. Three of the four playoff sides are three of the four best away followers in League Two, so as long as $alford don’t scam their way up we’ll definitely be replacing less with more from the basement. Good thing, considering Reading are basically the shittest supporters for a club their size and Wigan won’t get anywhere near the top 10.

Happy for you to share on Lincoln forum, I regularly scroll through but am not signed up.

Thanks, will do.

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Only got 2,100 for Barnsley in the second leg, sold out within 2 minutes this morning.

Same for us at yours. Someone high up at both clubs is telling porkies because both seem to be blaming the other for the reduced allocation. I don't actually disagree with the allocations as I wouldn't want 5,000 odd away fans at Oakwell for such a big game and likewise I'm sure you wouldn't want the same at Bolton. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't dreading it as much as looking forward to it as you've been my least favourite side to play this season (Lincoln and Exeter aside), here's to a good two legged tie and hopefully the best team over the two goes through to the final.

its common in the play offs, Swindon wanted to give us 900 off last season so we said we'd give them the same... they then gave us behind the goal which was 2000 so we gave them the same (and put them in the opposite end).

why would you give a bigger one for an advantage in such a huge tie.

 

[Davidimp]

Also a good chunk of gate receipts don't go to home side like a league game anyway.

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Ticket information released for Cheltenham away.

Looks like they’ve increased the away allocation.

Previously given a full allocation of 1,420 in recent years, they’re now offering us 1,520.

On sale tomorrow. £26 adults, £18 students/oaps, £10 youth.

We’ve reached the ticket cap (300) on away season tickets, so there’s around 1,200 left for the rest of us.

 

[valefan16]

We've still heard nothing on Barnsley tickets for a week on Saturday! Considering I would expect a sizeable away following I thought we'd have been given them to sell by now.

It's always been 1,520 for anyone who could sell that many

Poor that. Though they have been given until tomorrow to answer the FA charges, maybe they are waiting until then....

 

[Tallow]

Carlisle have been given only 400 tickets for the Carabao Cup game at Harrogate.
Can see that selling out sharpish.

 

[valefan16]

Looks like we've sold our initial allocation for Barnsley in 48 hours (1000) so set to be a decent following up there.

 

[The Evil Dead]

They've sent us another 1,000.

Got 1,000 for Blackpool too.

 

[valefan16]

Yeah 1000 for Blackpool is crap if its not initial allocation as that always sells out.

 

[valefan16]

1400 sold for Barnsley so far so looks set for probably 16-1800 come the weekend I would think.

 

[LancashireTrotters]

Lincoln look to be bringing around 600 or so.

 

[Moonie]

Fleetwood look likely to be bringing 250 or so for the opening game of the season at Brunton Park.

 

[HutchECFC]

Think it was announced we had sold about 670 for Wycombe on Saturday, with POTG available

 

[YEO YEO YEO]

Lincoln look to be bringing around 600 or so.

Yeah sounds about right. Think we've taken 700 last few seasons. With some people on holiday, and £28 a ticket, will put some off. I've been before, and not rushing to go back, so in the Lakes instead.

 

[Luke Imp]

Lincoln look to be bringing around 600 or so.

Over 900 sold as of this afternoon.

 

[E10rifle]

We’ve sold out the allocation at The Valley. Somewhere between 3,100-3,200.

 

[folletto]

Great support, think it will be a much closer game than most think

 

[geg1992]

I'm backing both teams to surprise a few this season.

 

[White horse]

Over 900 sold as of this afternoon.

That's a solid support, especially with the prices. hopefully get touching on 20,000. Wigan fans already moaning they have to pay £34, for their match in a couple of weeks but it's not true. It will be £30 to them. Bolton fans will have to pay the £34 price n the East and West stands that day. Behind the net is the cheapest stand and that's were the away fans are. Of course II's still too expensive though. Another OG by the board are the matchday buses which run. They now get you to the ground at 1.15 for a 3,00 kick off. Far too early so you can only deduce they want you to spend in the club shop or drink at over inflated prices in the fan zones , What else could the thinking be if they get you there nearly 2 hours before kick off. ?Will be an expensive day out. The bus is £7 return or £7 one way which is another rip off, People will choose to drive as the trains are always on strike so there will be even worse gridlock than already and it is horrendous now anyway. So apart from the traffic, the bus timetable, the price of a ticket , the price of beer and food, train strikes and the weather which goes without saying I am looking forward to the season immensely

 

[denzel ecfc]

Fair play to Burton, they are charging £18 for the terrace and £22 for the seats. Might be tempted to go and see our rejects...

We're quite lucky because season ticket holders get free bus travel on Saturday match days and from mid-afternoon onwards on Tuesday match days.

 

[Pompeyblueboy]

We’ve sold out the allocation at The Valley. Somewhere between 3,100-3,200.

Pompey sold Orient tickets in 3 hours. We only been given 1200. I thought the O's dished out more than that?

 

[Bartonyellow]

We have presold 600 for Blackpool as at Thursday morning. Should be about 800-900 which for us is pretty good.

 

[Bartonyellow]

It’s been £18 for years now. I can remember league 2 at that price - that was 8 season ago.
Fair play to Ben, we have never fleeced the fans nor charged more for away fans.

1991 GAS at Pompey.
