Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2023/24

[Crewelad87]

Mansfield sold 774 for our place on Saturday, decent effort for them, should be 1000 by Saturday I'd think.

 

[Luke Imp]

We're about 10 short of selling out Wycombe, but no-one seems to know whether that allocation was 2,000 or 2,350.

 

[GTFCfish]

Sold over a thousand for Grimsby. Should be sold out by the end of the week.

Excellent for us.......

Altogether now.......

3........

2........

"Cup final"

Local game innit.

 

[Conker]

Pay on day too so it should be comfortably over 1000.

 

[william death]

Over 1300 sold so far for Cov on Saturday... final figure should hopefully be around 2k.

 

[Luke Imp]

Turns out that 2,000 figure to Wycombe is a load of bollocks. Despite the Club saying we were receiving 2,000 tickets, we didn't and sales are around 1,400 and Wycombe have now offered us a further 400 (bit of a late call!).

 

[Son of Cod]

Anyone that doesn't take 2000+ or sell out their full allocation on the opening day can officially be filed under tinpot.

Reckon we'll have 2000+ fans there supporting us on Saturday, so that must mean we're not tinpot.

You don't "take" fans to home games, Chwistopher.

 

[Conker]

You do in nailsworth

Tut tut SoC, first it was homophobic jibes and now you're mocking people with disabilities.

Plumbing new depths.

I have never made homophobic jibes. Didn't realise you were disabled either!

He is talking about one 2000+ at one game Chris, not combined away support for the entire season.....

Don't tell me, season ticket sales also bollocks and you've actually sold around 750?

 

[Luke Imp]

We'll find out next Saturday!

Still not got my card, although I've got it on my phone.

 

[northstandexile]

843 tickets sold by Mansfield at Crewe with also thousands turning up on the day without tickets.

 

[Chris FGR]

Im not but I still think taking the piss out of people's disabilities isn't funny or clever. Do you?

 

[Vanni]

Whoa whoa whoa, hold on a second there Chris. Saying Chwistopher instead of Christopher isn't a severe disabilty. It's called a speech impediment, thankfully, otherwise circa 50% of the world's population could be termed as disabled which would be simply ridiculous. Do you know that millions of people mix their x's and s's, r's and l's, r's and w's and so on?

A speech impediment is only a disability when it affects people's lives. As in, some poor guy's speech is so bad that he has major trouble making himself understood because people don't understand what he's saying.

 

[Son of Cod]

I was just trialling a new pet name?

 

[PaulHaddock]

I prefer 'twat'

Someone in my family had a pretty severe speech impediment, partially due to hearing problems and seeing as we went to a fairly rough school, he took a load of shit inc beatings for it. It was fucking disgusting the shit he had to go through for no fault of his own, so sorry for finding ignorant c*** like SoC unfunny when they use a fake speech impediment to try and be funny.

Ah right then, I see where you're coming from. Shit like that makes me livid tbh, and I really don't know how I would react if it happened to a mate or relative of mine.

 

[GTFCfish]

2373 sold for Chesterfield tomorrow and as there's no pay on the day, that's our lot.

"someone" in your family? The plot thickens. Is that why you decided to bulk up and become a headlock loving FGR steward? You won't slay those school demons, but by God, you'll manhandle some away fans out of The New Lawn.

I do, however, see one large plot hole in your sob story. You have previously painted the Stroud area as a kind of Garden of Eden where vegan families come, hold hands and sway together to the tune of Dale Vince's panpipes. Surely such paradise does not have rough schools like our Northern slums?

 

[PositiveOmen]

Props to Grimsby fans. Always nice to start a season in front of a half decent crowd. Currently 4,600 sold by us, but will be a few hundred on the day.

Hopefully there's no crowd trouble and it's a good game.

Nailed on crowd trouble

Was early teens in the kop when Grimsby came in to it.

These days it'll be in the car park. Our police are dog shite near the ground.

I have never stated anything of the sort, search my posting history if you don't believe me, and how the fuck would I know what vegan families do, I'm not one and don't know any. I'm just a fan of a club who happened to be taken over by someone with green principles, nothing else about that stuff has ever interested me. And where I grew up wasn't paradise by any stretch, but yes still a lot better then Grimsby I'd imagine.

As for your implication that I actually was talking about myself, you couldn't be more wrong. Seeing someone else more vulnerable then you in your family take shit when you're not old enough to stop it is far worse then getting shit yourself. I was lucky to be raised to handle myself and yes I have worked in security and know some of the lads who have stewarded at our place, but trust me it wasn't me who chucked that inflatable wielding twat of yours out, if I had done he wouldn't have been walking out.

 

[Luke Imp]

So much anger over a man holding an inflatable football.

Next we'll be hearing stories of fans assaulting stewards with inflatable sharks.
