Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2023/24

[Conker]

Many posts on this page but only one that mentions the home crowd.

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.

You've also got Bath Rugby to compete with - their catchment is huge - they sold 60k tickets for Twickenham when they switched their Leicester home fixture to there

And Bristol Rugby that play at Ashton Gate.

And Exeter Chiefs now. It all adds up.

We've sold our allocation of 4,132 for Notts County and another 348 have been made available.

Excellent effort - will probably be biggest following in L2 this season?

I think a lot will be going to Coventry, given we haven't played them for ages and haven't been to the Ricoh unlike some of the other local games. Guess that will also depend how we are doing at the time as it's after Xmas?

Think Cov will beat it if all goes to plan!! We play Notts with 4 games to go.

I think the 4469 that Lincoln are getting is the max tho. The stand holds circa 5.5k but with some netting and some other health and safety reason that I can't recall (something to do with the concourses being too narrow) the actual number of tickets we give is a thousand less. Pompey brought 4366 (guessing they got that allocation too and sold it out but a handful couldn't make it etc.)

Depending on where we are in the league for our game in March, i think we could bring 4,000+.

 

[CFC91]

Think our following at Luton Saturday will be 'interesting'

I guess you're talking about a home game........?

It's possible for the away game, believe it or not. It's happened before in the kop end.

And Exeter Chiefs now. It all adds up.

Chiefs havent affected our crowds! Very different animals..

You guys selling out the home stands? I intend coming down for the game but am worried I might not get one of the 350 tickets you give away fans.

Having said that I think us selling all 350 might be a bit optimistic currently, depends on results, just like everybody else's team.

There's no way we'll take more than 350 to Exeter you'll be fine.

Great effort by the Imps. To take as many as 4500 to an away ground for a 4th division match can only be described as very impressive, regardless of proximity or rivalry.

Yep, given that its all ticket for us for some reason and no pay on the day.

This should have been a decent following given we've not been for a number of years in the league, doubt we'll take 300 given the dross being served up since Cook left.

Sold out our allocation of 1903 at blunders for the following Saturday too, first time ever!

I thought given the momentum you have at the minute that you would have sold well over 2000, 1903 is a piss poor effort to be honest.

We're massive like Grimsby now so we'll invade your home ends too

 

[PaulHaddock]

Bloody Lincoln always talking about their away support!

Damn it when I saw I had a quote I thought someone had bitten, must try harder.

 

[Davidimp]

We'll be buying tickets in the home stands next in our hundreds as your lot off the fishy claimed you always used to do at our place for the derby

 

[denzel ecfc]

Lincoln didn't sell out the away end. You'll be fine. Yes we are filling the rest of the stand at the moment E="BlackHaddock, post: 678650, member: 4921"]You guys selling out the home stands?

Is it actually all ticket? Why 1FF? I was planning on going to be honest but living in Leeds makes it a bit difficult getting a ticket. What a daft decision

Every game at Luton is all ticket for away fans.

I know mate just playing along with our friends up the A46

Ours was all ticket at Luton last year then pay on the day made available the morning of the game.
