Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2023/24

[william death]

Bizarre that they'll have about 20k at the match they're doing £2 tickets for.

We have four consecutive home games, of which Crawley Town on a cold Tuesday night was the least attractive by a country mile (no disrespect).

That's about it, really.

We'e only pre sold 65 tickets for tomorrow's trip to Swindon, but nearly 1100 for Notts the week after albeit @ £2 a ticket.

I have been Swindon with vale twice lost 6 nil left at half time when 5 nil down and the other lost 5 2 so I doubt I will bother going that place ever again I'm going Cheltenham away in a few weeks though.

Also Lincoln were at home - anyone living east of NG4 gets a free tractor and trailer ride to Sincil Bank...

No disrespect to Lincoln but you got to admit there away attendances are far higher than youd expect from them

107 Rovers at Brunton Park.

 

[dedwardp]

143 Colchester at Port Vale

 

[PUSBCCFC]

With the hundreds of Coventry fans all over stadium MK, well over 8000 Coventry fans at MK Dons today.

 

[FGRJC]

107 Rovers at Brunton Park.

And what a wasted trip it was, you know currently going past Barrow, long old drive.

 

[darren gregory]

143 Colchester at Port Vale

Shocked at that figure, looked about 80 enduring two god damn awful teams

Could hear you on the radio at least.

 

[GTFCfish]

522 Luton.

 

[denzel ecfc]

Comments on Couny’s fan message board says lowest home crowd since Big Al took over.

Locals say figure is correct, three games in a week, cup match on Saturday, losing last Saturday. Plenty giving game a miss, poor weather, poor away following. All adds up.

You can bet they'll still be going to Swansea in their thousands, they'll find money for that.

 

[northstandexile]

154 bees in Glos
174 boro at the Prozac
72 ultras at Gatwick
334 staggies up north

 

[Limerick Mariner]

522 Luton.

A Luton world record that probably...

 

[AdamStag]

Great noise by our fans.

Morecambe really do struggle to attract the locals. Decent day out though, cheap and cheerful

Fantastic following from Cov

 

[Posh Red]

I counted 148 from Crewe yesterday. Which considering they had pre-sold 65 doesn't seem unreasonable

 

[Limerick Mariner]

Fantastic following from Cov

Yes but its still the Franchise that they pay admission to...I'd prefer to see them in the Conference, with average away followings of 80...

Same with insect egg chase franchise that has invaded Cov, be great to see them relegated...

I wish you would put the teams instead of doing this then people would actually know who took what where.

Plenty like myself simply wouldn't have bought in advance. No price difference between between doing that and on the day. Hence why there was a lot more than what was pre-sold.

 

[northstandexile]

I bought a Morecambe programme yesterday and away attendances were recorded below.


What is interesting is that a number of Morecambe away attendances differ marginally from what I have noted as official away attendances ( ie at Mansfield, Morecambe programme says 57 whereas Mansfield website said 63) ,Grimsby now 54 not 53 and Notts Co 76 not 78)

Where I had estimates or known figures the Morecambe programme says different

Morecambe vs Accrington 539 ( originally had 549)

Morecambe vs Cheltenham 187 (had estimate 150)

Morecambe vs Coventry 689 (had estimate 700)

Morecambe vs Crawley 64 ( originally had 63)

Morecambe vs Crewe 127 ( originally had 205)

Morecambe vs Stevenage 70 (had estimate of 100)

Morecambe vs Wycombe 210 (had estimate of 200)

Stevenage vs Morecambe 53 (had estimate of 75)


I will let you make your own mind up about some of the irregularities but I suspect the programme has some typos or mis-transcriptions.

For my records I have just amending what were my estimates to actuals.

The only one that is miles out is the Crewe figure. Unsure where I got the 205 from but the programme figure of 127 is miles out. Any ideas on the Crewe figure you Gresty lads.

Do you know the total attendance at Swindon as it was not on BBC site or clubs website yesterday

5427, Redjed put it in the general thread.

I very much doubt we took 205 to Morecambe on wet and windy Tuesday night in November. 127 sounds much closer to the probably accurate number, given our numbers elsewhere this season.

 

[djs]

157 is the number given by the club that will be going into the next home programme (ironically against Stevenage).

Any Chesterfield (or Stevenage) people get a prog on Sat and can confirm this?

[SoutheySWFC]

Does it show the Swindon figures?

 

[dedwardp]

Versus Chesterfield? 6,140 (196), but nothing was confirmed until around Christmas time for some strange reason.

 

[djs]

Cheers Sir.

 

[UTS]

Crewe have always seemed to have the worst away support in relation to home crowds.

Why is this?

Colchester are similar.
