557 Bradford in 5,548 at Sixfields.

 

[Conker]

2028 Mansfield fans in a sold out away end, full attendance 4015. never nice to be outnumbered no matter how little but understandable considering Scunny circumstances.

Oldham best fans up Vale this season by a mile.

 

[chipmunx]

150 Barrow fans at Crawley

 

[E10rifle]

462 Leyton Orient fans at Sutton

Thought there were only 432 tickets…?

It would have been closer to 480. 282 in the new stand, 135 in golf course stand, 50-70 maybe standing.

There were some empty seats in the new stand.

462 Leyton Orient fans at Sutton

Website says 452

296 boro at Colchester
445 Saddlers at the Dale
213 Harrogate at Salford
1202 Newport at Swindon

just missing rovers at rovers

 

[The Terminator]

There at least 50 more in the home end

Once that away end is finished, I think it will be alright for Sutton - right now though its in a poor state, although understandable!

They're on their farewell tour...

Were they disguised as Sutton fans? Empty spaces in the away seating and the total attendance minus the away end was pretty much our standard Saturday home attendance suggests there weren’t at least 50 Orient supporters in the home end.

Were there a small amount in the wrong end? Possibly, it happens. But at least 50 would have been too obvious

The gulf between what we put on Twitter and what the official number strikes again.

I know at least 10 of our old boy bridgade were in the home - one of which was my uncle - Not all of our fanbase are young mouthy morons, we have our fair share of old men who can behave themselves as well

The stewards also let a few into our end from the home end too, think that was around 10 too. So we'll have to say 20

Probably all that space because you couldn’t sell all your tickets .

Tbh that wouldn’t have been the first time it’s happened this season. Hopefully next season with the new away terrace and with the overspill terrace (which should be allocated between home and away fans based on expected numbers) that should no longer be an issue, as we’ll be able to allocate around 1300 depending on need.

Mate we sold all of them the club stopped selling them and said they was all gone at the start of the week! If people prefer to stand rather than sit or decide to leave at half time (both in this instance odd), or not turn up at all there isn't much we can do!

I can’t imagine the amount of standing tickets being available since it seems it’s just a box ticking exercise to say we’re offering it- and what we’re selling would be the maximum we can safely fit in.

We declare the total number in the ground rather than tickets sold (a departure from previous seasons). However we were able to sell/allocate around 480…

(And quibbling over 30 tickets is coming close to tinpot thread worthy)

1514 Latics at Vale

 

[Kauto Star]

1514 Latics at Vale

Hope the Latics stay up, despite you being a bogey side to us, especially at Boundary Park, you always travel in big numbers to Valley Parade, yes I know it's not far, but still creates a far better atmosphere than when Stevenage bring their 100 or so fans up.

 

[denzel ecfc]

I hope Colchester fans have all got their tickets for Friday as the home ends will all be full and it sounds like we are considering opening up parts of the away terrace for home fans

 

[valefan16]

640 of the 740 additional tickets Walsall sent have gone in 4 hours so looks like they'll be gone shortly, think the wife bagged me one!

Guess we will ask if we can get the Swindon allocation now but unsure if we will due to their hatred of us and the local fixtures that day being WBA v Cov and Birmingham v Milwall... guess if they worried Vale fans going in the home ends would pose more problems we could get it?

my dad's mate went down from Macclesfield with two STs for openening time to get me one . I would feel bad cheating the system but after having to sit in the home ends at man city idgaf anymore.
did your wife phone up or go down to Vale? trying to work out a plan for Exeter tickets

We are not local so its a nightmare every time even as a season ticket holder, its the one thing they haven't got right yet but trust it will be in time.

My wife rang countless times no answer, so believe she rang the shop and asked them to ask them to call us back and they did in fairness.

Exeter is going to be a nightmare.

 

[valefan16]

Exeter on sale Thursday! £25.00 for sitting is a bit steep but will see what I can do! Wife will hate me!

 

[northstandexile]

Any idea of number of Bristol fans at Tranmere las Saturday

 

[SELatic]

We’ve been given 1700 for Tranmere and told that’s the lot - is that the usual away allocation? I’m sure the away stand is bigger than that isn’t it?

 

[The Evil Dead]

Exeter have given us 1,154 for the last day.

 

[EricSabin]

Some cracking followings being bandied about on here

Won’t be this Friday! There’s 150 on a boat to Orient if that helps…

I read somewhere 1188, which seems odd as we sold 1200 in advance with pay on the day.

Apparently Vale took away the option to pay on the day on Monday, before a twitter storm and they've now reversed the decision. Vale fans - any ideas?
