Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2023/24

[villa loyal]

Norwich away on a Tuesday is pretty shit but a London away on a Friday night is ace, half day from work and an afternoon on the ale watching the weirdos go about their business

QPR far more appealing. I’m doing half day tomoz .

 

[SF_]

268 Brentford at Deepdale.

Still no figure from Hull for Saturday.

 

[Depthcharge]

Anyone know how many Forest have sold for Leeds on Saturday?

Won't be many more than 1k

 

[Brad-Owl]

Is the 'red button' live matches making a difference to attendances midweek?

Vastly.

Especially on away numbers.

 

[villa loyal]

Not convinced we had 993 at Norwich the other night. The WMP twitter are notorious for getting it wrong. Only once have they got it right, and that was at Millwall the other week. For example, when we played Blackburn away, they stated we had 3100 there, when Blackburn announced we had 3998 there. They did the same at Norwich last season. Stated 1700, when there was just under 2k there.

Straw clutching my Villa friend?

3087 Sold out for QPR tomorrow night.

Nah, just not convinced. As I said, WMP twitter get it wrong all the time which makes me question that 993 figure. I’m the first to admit we have had some poor followings in the last few seasons in prem for a club our size. They got the Norwich figure wrong last season(200 shy) and many others. 993 will have to stand though, as doubt Norwich will release any info, and it could very well be correct. See what they say for Friday nights game which is sold out.

Only one less than what you had Cardiff the other year mate iirc

 

[villa loyal]

Maybe I’m being too sensitive

I'll get an official figure from Norfolk plod soon

 

[Depthcharge]

It was in jest mate.

Only questioning it because they are usually off by at least 100. Wouldn’t have been many more tbf though.

You shouldn’t joke about away numbers. It’s a serious subject.

 

[Depthcharge]

I know you're right!

(QPR good effort - even though you had 10 days general sale to shift 'em)

A few of our games make general sale, especially when we are not doing so well. Infact, majority of our away games have made general sale this season, so far.

3150 for Derby Sold out

 

[Depthcharge]

Forest look set for about 1,800 at ER tomorrow.

 

[Tom_ITFC]

2,200 sell out at Millwall tomorrow. Not sure whether that includes some of the lower tier but I know they’ve allowed that for us before

 

[Depthcharge]

2,200 allocation is upper tier reserved seating.

 

[blademan89]

Quality support

 

[SMH]

Good support that. Less so from us, only 954 sold in advance, Blades have now made it POTD.

Not too bad that, the pricing is a joke.

 

[SMH]

It’s shocking, price is irrelevant, all down to our away form. Easy trip to make and one of the better aways. Took almost double in L1.

That’s good going for Ipswich.

You were top though I think.

 

[Tom_ITFC]

Is that meant to be as derogatory as it sounds?

 

[CT70]

1978 Rovers @ the Hawthorns today.

You’re struggling at the moment and it’s not relatively easy to get to. That’s good numbers for you.

I don’t often see Ipswich take 2K away.
