Stickied League One Away Support Thread 2023/24

[Millerbri]

608 Bristol Rovers fans at NYS, a good turnout for a match with nothing much to play for and in good voice at times.
Looked a decent side at times but no firepower thankfully.
Perhaps the worst refereeing performance I've seen this season (for both sides) and that's some compliment believe me.

 

[UTS]

112 Bury
476 Oldham
608 Brizzle Rovers
390 MK
1452 Plymouth
346 Blackpool
1018 Oxford
1122 Wigan
1459 Bradford

missing Walsall at Scunny

Lots of Bury fans must have got lost on the way to the ground.

 

[EricSabin]

2,100 allocated for Walsall. Should sell those easily.

 

[roversfan2001]

where have they put the extra allocation cos that stand holds 1600

I'm wondering where Blackpool have found an extra thousand seats for next week; limited the away allocation to 2,200 all season yet given Shrewsbury 2,700 with an option to have more.

 

[NorthernSoul]

We were told by them that they didn't have a safety certificate to allow more than 2,200 away fans.

Shrewsbury wont sell that anyway now they can't get automatic so a strange one.

I reckon they’ll take 2,000+ even though it’s essentially dead rubber. Sunny day in Blackpool, last away game and it’s been a great season for them.

How many do you think you’ll allocate to us?

 

[JJH]

The 900 behind the goal, would be amazed if they give you the side stand as well given they'll fill the home end.

 

[EricSabin]

How many do you think you’ll allocate to us?

I should think you'll get the side bit as well, so 1400. Can only think of two occasions where we haven't given it over, United in the cup and Luton when we were presented with the league 2 title.

Will you not fill the home ends?

 

[entyROVERS]

still wank

allocation upped to 4000, of which will sell out

 

[Shrew_fan]

where have they put the extra allocation cos that stand holds 1600

its just top quality #BANTZ from UTS. The away end holds about 1,800 but normally 1,650 is the most we give as some seats are netted off.

2,100 Bury fans can barely find their way to home games!

we've sold 2,500 so far but can't see us selling many more - maybe another 200 or so I reckon

I was only having a joke mate, relax.

 

[roversfan2001]

Given an extra 700 for Doncaster, total allocation now 3,759. Eventually Rovers will ask for the whole end

 

[EricSabin]

Depends on Saturdays result, if we win I'd think so. If not and we've got too much to do, maybe not

 

[Deepcut Cobbler]

We are already having a 'relegation party', it may turn into a 'we've stayed up party', although I have no confidence in gaining the two wins that I believe are required.

 

[SMH]

Sell the 3,750 and you will be offered the rest unless there is evidence that we will need the area for Home fans, unlikely but that would be the only reason for not giving you them. Moot point anyway you haven’t sold out yet

Fair play you were right. Been given another “final allocation”, 4,111 the total now.

It's probably with it being midweek, every chance of there being a pay on the gate turnstile if you shift all you have left before lunchtime tomorrow

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Sounds about right, I wasn't sure if it had been reduced as there has been a bit of bother in the past, looks as if there will be a larger section netted off.

 

[roversfan2001]

Been announced that it's an all-ticket game now, we've got about 100 left to sell then that'll be that I presume.

to take nearly half our home support away thats some going that...haters will hate

 

[DearneValleyRover]

It’s because some Blackburn fans have bought tickets in the Home end then bragged about it on line so no pay on the gate for Home fans now

 

[SMH]

to take nearly half our home support away thats some going that...haters will hate

Bandwagoning bel**nds, half of them won’t have been away from home all season. Just like two years ago at home to Barnsley. 8k home fans on average all season until 14k rocked up on the last day to see us lift the trophy.

I have to confess, I bought a home end ticket a month or so ago as I was worried they’d sell out to ST holders. Obviously not needed now, I’ll probably give it to another Wigan fan should anyone want one after they sell out, or last resort just flog it on the day to a Donny fan for a fiver in a probable futile attempt to get a free pint in the ground.

If you bought your ticket using a Lancashire postcode then expect to get a refund as your ticket will be null and void it’s happened to the Blackburn fans who have done it

That's not that difficult when you get the crowds you do.

 

[EricSabin]

1450 sold for Wazzull. Should think the rest will shift considering we'd sold 400 just before kick off on Saturday

 

[SMH]

Don’t think you’re in a position to make any crowd jibes. 11k on Thursday night for the former Premier League champions in a 31k seater stadium. Now that is pathetic.

 

[UTS]

Would 4,111 be Wigan’s largest ever league away following?

 

[roversfan2001]

That 11k is more than you get. FA Cup winners 5 years ago and now you get 8k at home.
