Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2023/24

[blademan89]

Pretty good. Blades will sell out their cap presumably?

I think we already virtually did before the Ipswich game, theres been no update since then as were still waiting to see if the premier league allow us to give the lower tier to away fans as it only holds 2800 odd instead of 3k.

Where else would you stick them?

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Upper and Lower.

 

[JJH]

Does that work with the concourse?

Also, how are SYP all of a sudden going to allow clubs like West Ham, Spurs, Man Utd etc to have 3k whereas in this league even the likes of Forest, Derby weren't allowed more than 2.2k.

It worked for years as we used to get the lot.

They dont have a say now do they, its premier league rules

1 section of the lower tier and the upper tier if they dont allow us to just give the lower. You supposedly have to give away fans st least 1 pitch side block of seats too but Newcastle manage to get away with that as do man utd.

The bottom tier will be fine in the prem, but it will have to be the whole lot(2800) instead of the 2300.

It was 2990 but weve been made to take some seats out for safety reasons on exiting the stadium.

More SYP/SAG Bollocks.
Only problem anyone ever gets is outside for Derby matches and when you lose.

Very very bitter this pre season pal what's wrong.

Not bitter pal, just seizing any small opportunity to make a joke. Notice the court case is back up and running for closing arguments, neither side is smelling of roses here.

I'd say I've lost interest but I've never had any in the 1st place so i actually haven't looked at anything involved in it. Neither seem to want to part with much money that's if they have any anyway, so sell up and on their way I suspect.

Ffs sat on plane 1 hour delay. Yes that's the other side of the island, it's my 1st trip to Cyprus, my 53rd country worldwide.

What did you think, enjoy it?

Allocated Leeds 2,300 for the opening day.

How many do Fulham fans think they'll bring up north first game? Probably be £23 a ticket.

We've gone back to categories this season, but fewer of them. £36 Cat A (realistically only be Wednesday and Leeds), £28 Cat B (likely Hudders, Boro, Stoke, Forest, Derby, and a few clubs who charge everyone more than that such as QPR) and the rest will hopefully be £23 Cat C.

Still don't think they'll bring many maybe 1k

£36 quid? Robbery.
Nearly as bad as us!!
Guaranteed we'll rip you off (and us tbf) for our 1st home match.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

We charged Barnsley less than we paid at their place last time out.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Summat on twitter saying us and Leeds are Category A+ for Blackburn, £40 a ticket.

 

[villa loyal]

Jesus Christ . Blackburn are normally pretty cheap.

 

[roversfan2001]

Aye, 14 clubs are category B (£25), 7 are category A (£28) then you and Leeds are category A+ and £40 a do. About time we started charging you what you’ve charged us for years; don’t necessarily agree with your fans having to bare the brunt of your board’s actions but Leeds are a guaranteed 7k and you a guaranteed 3k regardless of price.

We charged you £30 and £33 not £40.

 

[Jamo]

Are you sure about that? Pretty certain it was £36 for us at Hillsborough too.

And that's disgraceful from Blackburn obviously. Leeds and Wednesday will still sell thousands though meaning it's justified from Rovers' point of view. And that's why nothing will change unless the EFL grow some bollocks and implement a cap like in the top division.

 

[Derby1971]

Charging any club 40 pound in the championship is just wrong, who ever they are, on a side note, Derby have sold out for the away game at Burton 1600. No surprise there, will be loads in the home end as well, also sold over 1500 for Rangers away on the 28th of July which is a Sunday, only 300 odd left, not bad going that for a friendly on a Sunday.

 

[villa loyal]

You going to Rangers 71? We’ve got Shrewsbury , Walsall, Charlton and Leipzig, all away from home. Also got a trip to the states.
