Stickied League 2 Away Support Thread 2023/24

[F!RTHY]

It looks like we have sold about 750-800 for Bradford away in three weeks. Whether we sell the full allocation of 2,000 will depend on the results of our upcoming home games, particularly Bristol Rovers.

Given our reliance on our home form, those two fixtures will tell us a lot about how our season is likely to end.

Full allocation is considerably more than 2,000, on the proviso you buy all tickets up front.

Oh, it’s Mansfield all over again.

68 Crawley at Salford

Good from Carlisle, reasonable from Orient given the distance and it being midweek - but poor from Mansfield given they're going for promotion.

1,290 there at Salford last night. Fuck me that's terrible, even we'd get more than that plodding around mid-table in the league below.

maybe Salford's backers will realise they're not worth the waste of money.... and shut them down - even though it would save us/Oldham or Stevenage it would please most fans in the league.

Imagine a play off final between them & Forest Green at Wembley.

Vale have solid their allocation for Barrow at the weekend.

Just what is the owner’s motivation for Salford? Money laundering? What’s the point if nobody has the faintest interest in supporting the club? Could have bought Bury.

the Salford v AFC Fylde National League final from 1918-19 season had 8049 fans - so there's an indication of what it would be.

well, we’ve had tranmere, port vale, rochdale, oldham and hartlepool away in a row over the space of 17 days.

We’ve had 900 odd at tranmere and vale and 1300 at oldham saturday, there had to be some game where it took a hit.

that's a reasonable excuse

Not sure its a fair comparison given the first world war had just ended.

If you put the two club's age together you wouldn't go back that far anyway.

damn 2018/19....

Didnt Salford have a £5 ticket offer on as well last night?

Can’t magic fans from nowhere.

It’s a tough ask getting people out at the same time as an international is on Tbf

Bloody hell, even we’re taking more to Wembley than that total

If you find yourself over that side of Manchester, there's a suspicious amount of white vans with the Salford badge on the side. I'm going to say it's something drug-related.

White vans sounds less like drug dealing and more like fly-tipping.

They're actually the supporter's coaches.

Rumours are we’re only giving Barrow the seated section for the game on the 26th. The club can’t see Barrow bringing enough to warrant opening the terrace, meaning it’ll be used for home fans that game.

Side note, 634 tickets sold for Northampton, went on sale to “silver members” at midday today. Can see them all being gone by 2pm. Be interesting to see if NTFC budge and give us some more tickets. Can’t see it personally, especially as there will probably be something riding on it.

 

[kieran_vale]

I’ve seen that Walsall have given an extra allocation for Swindon on the last day. Given we are away to them before that a little strange heard nothing on what allocation we are getting though it may be a Vale thing as we are notoriously bad at communicating stuff like this.

Should be a huge following for that, imagine we will sell out assuming form keeps up.

it's a fair trek for a midweek game game so doubt we'd take that many - so probably the right decision.

3,500 in total

 

[TheDon]

You coming over for that one Dan

 

[Indian Dan]

Nah. I’m over for the Newport game next weekend. Then for the PO Final!

I could squeeze in Harrogate away but I’ve no chance of tickets for that.

 

[Indian Dan]

3,500 in total

Actually it’s a few more than that.

‘As a result of the Robins already selling 2,300 tickets, and successfully requesting a further 1,360, Walsall Season-Ticket holders in the Community Stand will be relocated and offered the opportunity to bring a Friend For A Fiver.’

Great if we could sell them all, but all will depend on the next few games. Having said that the last away game is always a good excuse for a piss up!
