Non-League Away Support Thread 14/15

[Gladders]

I thought we gave you 2,000 tickets?

1500 with an option of an additional 500 if demand was there which it obviously is seen as we have sold 1250 before they go on general sale.

What's with all the orange t-shirts rovers fans?

What's with all the orange t-shirts rovers fans?

Protest against Sainsbury's unwillingness to pay up having signed a contract to buy the Mem - money would allow us to move to new ground.

Is it correct that the only access permitted, if Sainsbury did build a store on the ground, would be up the hill into the area where the away fans watch the game? Someone mentioned that to me when we played there earlier in the season, but I thought that it sounded like complete rubbish as surely an entrance could be made at the top, above the car park.

 

[Cardsfan]

86 Torquay at Southport
127 Forest Green at Lincoln
51 Eastleigh at Gateshead
39 Braintree at Kiddy

 

[yellow]

86 on a Saturday.

That says it all about how our club is right now.

 

[Gladders]

620 Grimsby at Welling

 

[Son of Cod]

620 Grimsby fans at Welling, in a crowd of 1042 (?).

 

[pontoonlew]

Best fans in the league.

 

[rudebwoyben]

I'd estimate 350 Barnet fans at Alfreton.

 

[immariner]

Best fans in the league.

Why? 620 is average in our position with our fan base. 1000 would have been decent.

 

[TheGas]

How many did we have today? Looked about 800

 

[DarkSithLord]

I'd estimate 350 Barnet fans at Alfreton.

In a crowd of 989. That would mean approx 600 Alfreton fans so sounds about right.

 

[rudebwoyben]

Yeah, it's not easy to make a spot estimate by sight so I did use the announced attendance as a guide.

 

[The_Boss]

How many did we have today? Looked about 800

Would have been about my guess too. Hard to see how many empty away seats from other end though.

 

[TheGas]

Thought atmosphere was decent at start of the game then the game itself killed the atmosphere. Do you always have Wannabe hooligans near the tunnel giving it big un all game or is it just against us?

Are you for real?
4 of our last 5 games have been away and last 3 have been Woking, Dover and Welling!
Do you think our fans have money growing out of their arses to go to all these games?
I think you need a little re-think on just how big you think we are!!

Many of those at all 3 would have been exiles; our away average is in excess of 500 and at the arse end of the season with a sniff at the title it is about what I'd expect- not spectacular, certainly not bad. Made plenty of noise though as usual.

 

[Cardsfan]

Still missing from today -
Woking at Chester - Estimate 108
Alty at Dartford - Estimate 60
Telford at Dover
Halifax at Nuneaton - Estimate 160

 

[CFC2010]

Still missing from today -
Woking at Chester
Alty at Dartford
Telford at Dover

I'd guess at 100.

40ish Nuneaton at Macc I'd say.

 

[Andy Harrier]

Have just checked a programme, Nuneaton brought 110 to us back in December.

 

[Cardsfan]

Cheers lads.

 

[GTFC1979]

Not that it matters, but ive seen 3 different estimates of us having 250 at Dover, but you have it down as 178. Will only add 3.5 to our average I know!!

3.5 You know what, if it's that much, I'll sprint down to Dover first thing tomorrow and knock their doors down for a figure

Seriously though, someone on here said 178 but I'll change it to 250 because the first one wasn't confirmed, just from a banter page on Facebook ffs

 

[Shotsfan1993]

Given the season we've had, our figures are very impressive. 5th highest away despite looking down the table for most of the season is very good. As a % of our home gates our away support has been excellent, although that figure is inflated due to our poor home crowds I think.

Our average will probably stay around where it is through the last 3 games, although Forest Green is our tour of duty so we may take 300-400 despite it being on TV. Braintree probably have 200-300 and Grimsby will be around 150 I would expect.

 

[TheGas]

Think we'll end up at 900ish after taking 2,600 and possibly 2,000 plus to dover

 

[Cardsfan]

Just seen a photo of us at Chester - Estimate 108.
