[roversfan2001]

272 MK Dons at Blackburn.

 

[Meadow]

561 Donny fans at Kingsmeadow.

 

[T.A]

1,290 Bury fans at Dale. We've now not scored a goal never mind win in 10 years. Nicky Adams with our last goal there in 2007.

1027 Southend in a crowd of 5339. Poor all round really

 

[Reaper]

Terrible turn out that is for a big club for this division.

Congratulations on the win though no sour grapes.

We're not the biggest travellers as it is but couldn't agree more. It's an abysmal following and not sure why it's that low, Oldham next week maybe a lot more are planning on doing that instead although I doubt it.

 

[Aber gas]

91 Fleetwood souls at the Mem.

We've never been huge travellers, and we also have many folks not going because of ownership. Not sure why that would affect away followings but it's possible.

 

[UTS]

Awful following from us (Bury) today, even when we were shit in league two we used to take 2,000 to Dale (as you should it's 5 miles).

I think a lot of our away followings are going to be poor this season unless something drastically changes. Lee Clark is killing us with his tactics.

 

[Marked Ox]

442 Shrewsbury at Oxford today. Expected more tbh with their start to the season.

I can only assume they're all saving their money for Priestfield next weekend....?

I was watching the Goal Rush show on channel 5 last night and that explains why when Fleetwood scored their goal there was silence. Thought there was something wrong with the TV set.

Fair play to the 91-- But overall a poor support for a good 3rd tier side. Has it always been like that ?

Would only say Portsmouth following was any decent but you expect that from Portsmouth tbf. Peterborough sold out Northampton so i suppose you can do any better but the rest are poor followings imo.

It'll be all the sightseeing opportunities in Gillingham.

Dunno mate. Fleetwood is a small place and I doubt they get many at home either.

Ours could have been better, and probably would have been if the circumstances we find ourselves in were better, but I wouldn't say 1600+ is a poor following to Blackpool when you take into account the fact we've lost every game this season and we are shambles behind the scenes to the point we only named 3 subs.

Would have been at least 1408 but one got nicked.

It's only a tiny place in fairness, but it's still worse than a lot of non league sides. Shows what a good sugar daddy can do, over big crowds and history.

 

[wafcharvey]

Portsmouth fans were brilliant Saturday. Large following around 2000 and didn't stop singing and creating an atmosphere for the full 90 mins. Respect especially when Latics absolutely battered them on the field. (Great fans apart from from a few dillusional comments on twitter)

 

[CT70]

I'd say any club that took over 1k on Saturday was a good following.
Also credit to all fans who travelled over the weekend.

 

[Saddlerrad]

Expected a few more from Bradford to be honest.

I think consecutive play off defeats has taken its toll, expect figures to be well down this season unless we start performing which doesn't look like anytime soon.

Quite a few of ours seem to have given up on the season already, mind you I haven't been to an away game this season so I can't say owt. Strange vibes around the place atm, unless we're right up there this season the numbers will be down on the last few years, we're a fickle bunch.

 

[DaveOAFC]

Imagine if we were ever good and threatened some sort of success?

Nah start of the demise that we'd be rocking up to curzon Ashton within 3 years

281 to Plymouth ain't too shabby
