Yeah that’s a fucking state as well. As it happens I was looking for your away end at Preston earlier and found one from a few years ago where the away end was as bad as ours or Rovers’ are at Coventry, which was surprising.

I'm not the one mentioning fans sitting down

Breaking News: Bristol City fan absolutely shocked that Bristol Rovers fans (in relegation battle) aren't partying at the Ricoh whilst watching one of their worst performances of the season.

In honesty, I was expecting to see the headline here today in Slovakia, but for some reason it didn't make it.

Rochdale fiddling with the numbers again it seems. I'm sure Sunderland were given (and presumably sold) 4,000 odd? The usual side stand then a section of the adjacent stand?

Nah we didn't sell out, next to where we were there was about half a block empty and presumably a few scattered about the place. The allocation was 3,814.

 

[Shrimpurh]

Yeah there were still tickets available last night which weren't sold and I think we failed to sell out a game earlier, Barnsley rings a bell. As well as bringing less to Port Vale for the FA Cup than we brought to Morecambe in the Checkatrade Trophy. Betting company twitter accounts have stopped mentioning it so it possibly happened before then.

For remaining games:
Rochdale 50/50 chance of selling out
Peterborough with it being a bank holiday should sell out
Fleetwood is on a weekday but it's a small allocation so should sell out
Southend is the last game so should sell out

So we weren't too far off selling out every game. Should we go up it'll be interesting to see how it effects our numbers with us; losing more often, novelty wearing off, tickets sometimes being twice the price we pay this season etc.

Should sell out for us????
Bank Holiday, last game of the season, 5.30 Kick off. I was expecting a complete take over in the home stands tbqh I assumed you would get rid of the away allocation with complete ease.

Yeah we should sell out easily especially with the possibility of something to play for.

It's been an expensive last 7 days with 3 away games and one of those being a Wembley weekend.

You consider that a flex?

Have you been here?

Sold 715/1215 for Plymouth on Easter Monday. Can't see us selling out unless we start to pick up a couple of results again.

Expect quite a few will come down for the weekend. Always good to spend a Bank Hol Sunday on the Barbican.

Sold out Wycombe tonight but they have made a further 600 available at the gate.

Quite possibly. They've only just gone on general sale today and I'm wondering whether to go or not. We've had our best season in years but we've been utter toilet in the games I've gone to so don't want to jinx us again.

Probably will still go tbh.

Sold out our allocation for our final two away games at Oxford and Gillingham today.

Should bump our averages up a bit for the final table.

How many did we give you mate? I’m not actually sure what our total away allocation is these days.

2,400

 

[PuB]

I’m very sure we’d give you more if you wanted

There's been a few incidents between opposing fans in the past so I doubt the police would allow it.

I’d be amazed if we didn’t take that up if offered. How much does the whole end allow for? Or would any extra be on the side?

I’m sure it’s about 3000 without the side bit, joethegill might know

Used to be! There are around 3200 seats in that end if you totally disregard what they use for segregation. They net a load of it off now if a bigger following comes down, so chances are the first few rows are out of use. Seems to vary between 2400-2700 or so depending on who the team are, but wouldn't be surprised if Charlton only get the lower end of that this time around after the flare chucking thing last season.

Doubt they'll get any of the Gordon Road for the same reason to be honest, although wouldn't be hugely surprising if we cashed in. Can't see the home ends selling out either way so there would be space - I reckon a crowd of around about 8k is likely.

Favourites for sixth place and take a following like that to a game in Yorkshire.

Your rather obsessed with our away support aren’t you!

I will put it another way it’s about 20% of our fan base hope that helps your obsession
