That Gillingham following is miles better than the Wigan following

In fairness to wigan that is quite good theyve got over 30,000 going to watch rugby today from wigan. Even leeds with there support couldn't sell out at derby not even close infact when there rugby team played at wembley the same day. Thats what happens in these shit places that think rugby is a good sport.

Wigan numbers seem good to me? Alot of pie eaters will enjoy both sports so do you pick a routine league game at Gigg Lane or a Grand Final at O.T? Mmmmm ... Tough call!

Why do Crewe have consistently poor away support in relation to home crowds? Colchester the same

They stopped letting people in the away end and there were no spaces, although th group that were stopped were a large youth element playing up outside so it may be the over the top police numbers stopped them rather than numbers. It holds 1800 but there were forged tickets going around so may have had an impact. The tickets are terrible, its just a piece of paper, so easy to copy them at Bury.

The police were so over the top again today, no ale being served and just heavy handed.

Great support from Wigan today even if the official number is correct (which we can't doubt). Without the rugby there would have been a good few more but what ifs and maybes can't come into it.

That Crewe following is an absolute disgrace, I don't normally comment on poor followings but after Tuesday when I would bet my house that there wasn't even 1000 crewe fans there to see less that 150 at Barnsley is terrible. I would be disappointed if we only take that to Peterborough on a Tuesday (which is likely).

Colchester can't be compared as they have miles to travel nearly every week so fair play to them.

The few in the corner? They wouldn't have opened that today, they were frightened to death of trouble....They just wanted to video everyone. The stewards were causing half the issues again today. The end was full though wasn't it, not sure where 120 seats where free as the concourse was full all game. Maybe after your second goal there were some empty seats, never seen as many people leave a game after 60 minutes.

Its not bad is it the away support, oh hang on, social media said its not so it must be. read the numbers instead of the facts.

That overspill section had Bury fans in, have you a picture of the over populated away end where they stopped letting in? Oh no, pick a photo of the "HOME END" and say its not good as we were not in the home end. Couldn't make it up.

People slagging wigan away following support clubs with much smaller home and away followings. In fact, Sheff United are probably the only away support that is much better, around 4 other clubs have similar and the rest are miles smaller.

Buy remember once in 2011, we took 112 somewhere at £42 a ticket.
