Worst for me by a country mile has to be Rotherham, less than 1k for what they regard as their biggest rivals, I know they have been shite this season and prices aren't cheap, talk of boycott etc, but to me that was easily the worst away support at Hillsborough had they happened to be top of the league there would have been no talk of boycotts.

Lol nothing like slating a following then giving two good reasons why it was low is there. Then going onto boycotts and league positions, how many owls did you used to take to Leeds the seasons before when you were a bit shit? Oh yeah less than a 1k.

Birmingham fans have not only been the noisiest set of away fans this season but have been 3 seasons running, always been impressed with Birminghams support.

Ipswich fans i'd say were the quietest this season didn't hear a peap all game it was like our home support this season.

Bet they wasn't far off less than 1k though and you've definitely only sold Leeds out this time because you both were in the playoffs at that time otherwise it would have been 1000 to 1500 like the seasons before.

Point im trying to make to the other owls fan is every club would take more if they were high up the table and doing well even if the prices are steep, it's called value for money.

We sold 2.4K when we were shit and it weren't on Sky, no excuses for the lower numbers after but all were televised.

Sky early kick offs didn't help, Rotherham brought about 800 for a Saturday 3pm kick off.

Should make no excuse to be honest, we pat ourselves on the back when we travel but can't take criticism .... our turnouts at Leeds in recent times have been fucking wank

Based on my fairly small sample...
Best fans at PR this season: Lincoln (Wednesday in the league)
Worst: Bristol City

Best would be Huddersfield I'd say, got outplayed and even at 3.0 down carried on supporting their team.

Worst would be Bristol City.

Wes never less than 1k to Leeds. But I agree they were shite followings (due to many of our fans shitting themselves about going to Elland Road) still no excuse though they were shite followings pure and simple. The difference is I admit they were, looks like you're not accepting your following to Hillsborough was shit, which it was, even under the circumstances, which weren't reason for the following to be as shite as it was. Sure you will muster more to Donny next year though.

Of course we'll take more to Doncaster as we won't be getting ripped off for 1 thing. We took 3.5k to Barnsley last season with sensible pricing and it would have been the same at Hillsborough with similar prices.

Probably just out of revenge why they charged you that, still absolute wrong though no thought to any of the fans at all just greedy bastard owners.

I don't think we will be charged £36 at barnsley. Only Leeds and Wednesday were as that's what silly price those 2 charged barnsley. I guess it will be £28 for a category A game at bramall lane for away fans and £23 for the rest. Leeds,Sunderland,barnsley,villa and Wednesday if they stay down will be cat A and possibly boxing day if we are at home.

LOL, you're talking in riddles pal, you used our shite followings at Leeds as an example of us having shite away following, I admitted they were shit numbers, (although larger than what you brought to Hillsborough for a more local match, against your biggest rivals, at a similar price, but which wasn't televised) but yet you still won't admit your following to Hillsborough was shit? Even at reasonable prices (I admit ours are fucking extortionate, but Swfc see it the way to compete against clubs with parachute payments, but that's another story) you wouldn't have brought 3.5k, as most of your fans were shit scared they'd see you get hammered. Pointless discussing anymore as you obviously can't admit a shit following when it's staring you in the face.

I can't believe you've just had a little brag about taking a bigger away following than Rotherham. :brill:

LOL, yes, bragging about our admittedly shit support at Leeds. Nah just pissed me off when people can't admit to a shit following. Everyone has em (or nearly everyone) so no shame in admitting to it

Reason why i can't say it's a shite following is because people will have wanted to go and couldn't afford them prices which will have been the case, i've never said your followings were shite at Leeds i just said they were way lower than normal because of the prices they were charging. I've slated some our other followings this season at affordable prices but i can't slate any following when people can't go because of the prices when they would really want to be there.

95% of People can afford £36 it all depends on form and wether it's value for money

Yep we've had many over the years. Only 2 last year, millwall and gillingham. You will find that fans find it hard to admit to there teams shit followings though, or anything else said negative towards there club.

Doubt it would be as high has 95%, most would be able to afford 1 adult ticket but for people who would fetch 2 or 3 children with them would cost arm and a leg.
