Stickied League One Away Support Thread 2024/25

A surprising 885 Lincoln at MK. Was expecting around 600 considering how things have been going on the pitch of late.

2572 Wednesday per Wycombe twitter, strange that 300 wouldn't attend.

Of course only 1 missing is at Fleetwood. Oxford were given 400 tickets only and had sold 340 by 10am on Friday. Surely not many more bought on the day? Gone for 350 as an estimate.

I'm sure MK do a home stand ticket offer every time we go there!

How else do they get idiots in to watch that sort of dross.

I'm guessing most of the missing ones were in the family section.

We had loads in the home ends for starters ... DCFC ... Always travel well.

Yeah that seems the case.

You do realise that Derby have done nothing more than the likes of Sunderland, Ipswich, Charlton, Bolton, Sheffield Wednesday, Bristol Rovers and Plymouth. It's not an achievement having fans in our home end.

Fair play, I really liked the Derby fans I met yesterday, some of the nicest fans I've ever met - you on the other hand just come across as a monumental bellend.

Cheltenham away tickets sold out, all 1511 tickets for the midweek game have gone.

Derby sold out 3900 for next Tuesday at VP, should be a decent atmosphere under the lights for that! (Even if I would have been petty and given them the same 2800 we got!)

 

[kieran_vale]

We should have restricted them. They claimed police advice as the reason for us at Pride Park and yet we are happy to give them more for VP than we gave Wednesday or Bolton? Doesn’t sit right with me to be honest. If anything VP going out on to Hamil Road after the game is far higher risk of something happening than there was at Derby as well.

It was bonkers, didn't Bristol Rover and Oxford get more? They have as much trouble as we do no doubt, in fact since Carol its fairly rare.

Shove them in the Bycars!

Although good news for fans yet to visit VP this season, the away end move will now be in the summer as still work to be done.

Ipswich fans - probably a daft question this as I presume you’re selling out most away games but Bolton v Ipswich on 11th March, are you expecting to sell this one out?
I’m asking because my Wife and Daughter are in Manchester that day for a Lizzo concert and I’m driving them so I’m looking at taking my lad to a game and the only ones I’ve found in the Manchester vicinity on that day are Altrincham and Bolton.
I presume I’d be able to get tickets in the home end but for a big game like that I’d really like to be in a bouncing packed away end.

No chance they sell 5100.

Talking of 5100, the Vale attendance tonight was 5,109 with 239 Posh

Port Vale 0-2 Peterborough United | 5,109 [239]

What the hell has happened to Port Vale fans tonight? There are more of their fans on here than in the ground!! That's a big drop off!

We only give the attendance out for what's in the ground. We have 6600 season ticket holders but if only 200 turned up we give out 200 crowd. Unfortunately it's minus 4 outside it's January when people are skint and it's a night match and it's on TV so was always going be a low crowd. Shows how much the club has grown though as 5100 was last season a standard Saturday crowd for us. The money we made from being on TV has now got cover the losses of the gate receipts.

You won't have lost much in gate receipts, you'll still have had the money from the 25% of absent ST holders.

Didn’t realise Bolton’s away end was that big I thought it was around 3.5k.
Fuck it then all being well I’ll take my lad in the Ipswich end.

To be fair I was commenting on here second half at 2-0 I was that bored but was in the paddock!

2000 down but on TV and -4… money tight but imagine next Tuesday they’ll all be there for a good 5 figure crowd.

We won’t bring 5k but I’d be expecting at least 2500 which is still a decent effort. Should be making the trip myself if I’m not made to work. Which is slightly more possible annoyingly as I’m off that following week at the Cheltenham Festival like every other year.

Bolton one of the few grounds in the league I’ve not done yet for whatever reason.

Yeah same here the one season we were in the same league recently was Covid year with no fans, I’ve done Burnden Park before but never the Reebok, Spot on then I’ll be in there with my lad as long as nothing unexpected happens between now and then, looking forward to it.

Plymouth have given themselves 600 more tickets this week as we, unsurprisingly, haven't taken up our allocation at Home Park and they'd already sold out.

Question for the Plymouth fans - what are the likely prices for the Pizza cup semi-final?

The extra seats is an odd situation, it is the first time we could do it this year because we sold out so quickly and you are bringing so few. So they have set up some refreshments and temporary toilets for the 600 ( a double Thermopylae).

I had a quick google on prices for the last pizza cup we hosted in December, adults were £13, under 18 were £4 and accompanied under 12s were free. No guarantee they will be the same prices, but gives you an idea. There was a hospitality package that seems to be £48 but that will be surrounded by janners.

I would like to say .. like many Derby fans , this has been a new experience going to stadia and locations we haven't seen in a long while if at all ...

It's been rejuvenating, invigorating, enlightening and oh so cool. Warnie having convos/banter with opposition fans behind his dugout, .. taking a dip back into the 50's /60's at Fleetwood and Accrington...and Morecombe ... .. taking a dip back into the 1920's playing Sheff Wednesday ... and MK Dons and our 6k plus ... wow ... Respects to everyone ...
