Our allocation for Notts County has been increased to 4,121, having already sold 2,630 to ST holders. Goes on general sale tonight.

Glad they've been more proactive this season, they kept increasing ours by about 200 a time last season, which made no sense at all. Ended up about the 3,300 figure

Aren't just about ALL your fans season ticket holders though. I'd have thought STH's would have taken more then they have.
Difficult to say at the moment. We're comfortably selling the extra 2,000 for home matches at the moment and who knows what we'd get if our capacity was, say, 15,000. Tickets for Notts County have only been on sale for four days so there's still plenty of time for ST holders to get there's. I'd expect us to have 4,000 there.

Good chance the Lincoln fans will outnumber the home fans then, and that's not a very common scenario in L2.

edit - not exactly, as I forgot that County's home gates are on the up. So if the Imps sell out their allocation it would be more like nearly as many away fans as home ones.

Well, Lincoln are massive, you know.

No chance of that this game, we're experiencing our own feelgood factor at the moment (although perhaps not on the level of Lincoln), if we beat or even draw with Crawley on Saturday and are still 2nd I'd expect over 7k home fans. So should be a gate of circa 11k which is decent for this level.

Gods gift - the stand holds over 5k but think it is reduced to the 4100 you'll get because of some kind of health and safety thing.

Difficult for STH's to buy more tickets when the initial allocation sold out in 4 hours or so on Sunday night. The further allocation only went on sale around lunch time today.

136 at Luton, think that's the lowest in almost a decade for a league tie. Deserve every respect though for going.
We had 122 at millwall for a night game last season and 129 at gillingham. I can't see us taking many more than that to our next few away games at Yeovil Stevenage and Exeter.

82 Crawley fans at the Lamex.

Atrocious weather so fair play.

Fair play to lincoln if they can bring 4000 a quality following at any level of football. No chance of magpies being outnumbered should comfortably be over 10'000

Bigger crowds than you pal;)
8000+ Imps will be in attendance for the game at the weekend

Certainly more than last time, looking forward to it.

Sneaking in off the train at 11, where's good to go?

Wetherspoons near the station on the high st, depends what the police allow to be open really.
They had a dispersal order in place for the Luton game last home match.
Social club is ok BUT very busy these days as are all the pubs nearest the ground, golden eagle, golden cross, Blue anchor etc.
Dont drink before these days as I take my daughter now but walking past the pubs they are proper heaving.

When we were there a few weeks ago they were refusing entry for away fans at every pub we came across until the police told us to go to the ones down by the river (think the area is called Brayford Wharf? One of the bars was called the Square Sail I think and there was a smaller one just before that). Pretty close to the station and a nice area when it's sunny but a fair old trek from the ground.

Not sure if that is a common thing for larger away followings or if it was just a reaction to the trouble a few years ago, probably the latter.

Pretty low from us but understandable considering we play Crawley every bloody year and have some much bigger games coming up.

I know there's been alot of pessimism about our prospects in the early season, but I didn't realise we were back in the Conference already...

We've got no reason to go to games at the moment. The board and management are killing the club.

Our home attendances are plummeting as well, our last home game broke the record for our lowest home football league attendance, 10% less than the previous lowest. Mind you there were only 38 Morecambe fans there.

Sorry for your troubles, cheap shot - we have a nationwide north Lincs diaspora to fall back on in hard times and they always keep away fan numbers up (although I note you are from East Staffs). I said to my kids that each person in the land knows someone who knows someone who supports Grimsby Town. The answer comes back - What about the Queen - and I say she knows John Major...and the person he knows was not a Tory back-bencher either...

Seeing your downward trend I have sold Yeovil in the spread betting so could make a bit of money from your troubles...

Being a very small town in the middle of nowhere we've never had a biggest fanbase to pull from. A lot of Somerset-based fans go for Bristol City or AFC Bournemouth. People will support a winning team whatever the situation though, when we were in the Isthmian League in the 90s we were getting 4000 every week as we won the league at a canter.
