Any news on how many vegans at Donny last Saturday.

Not seen anything official. Hopefully Donny will publish it eventually.

I was there, I'd estimate we numbered about 150.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Not seen anything official which is unusual but apparently on the ifollow commentary it was mentioned around 150, so I would go with that

Grimsby numbers are remarkable really considering how crap they are.

Grimsby numbers are remarkable really considering how crap they are.

But we are not crap away from home, as Dave keeps telling us. We’ve only lost once away under his tenure. I think maybe he’s hinting about BP being shit by constantly repeating how great the support is away from home. Thing is we’ve been pretty much abysmal at home since promotion. I haven’t seen a home win this season and didn’t see many last season. I blame the pitch it’s far too good now. It never used to be like that.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Haven’t you won 1 away all season? That Artell is a fucking weird c***

That's actually our club motto.

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

It's all that matters

 

[White Army]

We've sold 1039 for Bradford tomorrow. Pretty decent considering how bad we've been away from home this season and that fact there is nothing to play for.

 

[Richard Cranium]

We’ve just been given another 1200 for MK. Imagine they’ll go before end of play Monday

Guess no longer:

Where are they all going to stay if they get here on Monday? That’s nearly two weeks in Milton Keynes and missing other vital fixtures when they are here.

Once you get on that MK system of roads and roundabouts I would have thought getting stuck on it for 2 weeks is eminently possible…

130 of the beauties.

The sugarbabes actually sang a song in reference to them.

Our 650 allocation for Mansfield was released today, I understand why it's a pathetic allocation but it's still frustrating. They'll be all gone by the end of the Easter weekend I'd imagine.

Yeah, prioritising home fans. Correct move.

Stockport and wrexham been doing it all season, thought we’d do the same.

 

[Son of Cod]

As we discussed further up, Gillingham will have agreed to that unless Mansfield have broken the rules. If I was a Gillingham fan I'd be getting onto the club for an explanation.

I imagine it would’ve been something like, you get 650 or you but tickets for the whole end, and gillingham went for the former as we’d need the space.

Though that’ll be the 2nd last game of the season and we could be in full self destruct mode by then.

Yeah you could be right, I'd be interested to know exactly what the process is though as I'm sure Gillingham could turn round and request the 10% and not have to choose one of those options if that's what's happened.

Agreed on that, but there must be some process in place as the away end at stockport hasn’t been 10% all season, and wrexhams would be similar now they’ve that temporary stand.

I think Stockport are similar to us in that the reported capacity right now is higher than what it is in actual terms and that the 900+ they allocate just slips inside the 10%. Wrexham have increased their away allocation by a few hundred since opening the new stand too so they also give the required 10%, either that or they had enough wiggle room in what they were already allocating. I remember discussing it before and the new temporary end only adds a couple of thousand on so it wasn't really an issue.

Stop trying to get us in trouble ya grass. Where I grew up we beat them up with rounders bats, woodus special we called it

Stockport certainly don’t, we won there on new year’s day, there was 906 in the away end (annoyingly not me!) and 10,334 there, so 8.7%

Ah okay fair enough, Stockport breaking the rules again. Standard.
