Stickied Championship - Away Support Thread 2023/24

[blademan89]

We earned more yesterday than you've done in the last four .... be reyt

You'll of earnt about the same as our last 2 that's not my point though you could of earnt more just as we could against Bolton. If home demand isn't there and away demand is give it the away fans is my theory. It's not like away fans in English football are that amazing it's gonna have any impact on the result.

Fuck em Jawdee c***

Around 3100 very noisy Geordies at Hillsborough until they went 2 behind. (may have seemed louder as I was sat below em) best support I have heard since Rangers came in a friendly about 4 years.

They sounded quiet from where I was sat on kop.

On flip side I thought our vocal support was fantastic, wish it was like this every game.

 

[Another Walkley Owl]

Noisy? Sorry but that's bullshit quiet as a fecking mouse all game, loads around me at Lepp end of North said the same, was shocked how quiet they were.
Normally sit in North Stand (West corner) but as I said before, I was sat directly below em, they were singing almost constantly until they went 2 down. It was the loudest away support I have heard for years, but this is possibly due to where I was sat. No way were they quiet though, you may not have heard them, as our support was alot louder than any other match this season. (Though from where I was sat not as good as some are saying).

1711 Villa at Burton; again reported by our police liaison officer.

Turns out our allocation for Fulham on Easter Monday is 3849. Thought they'd been slow to sell but appears they've upped the allocation a second time without making fans aware.

How many haven't Villa sold out this season?

I managed to get one for Fulham through the Villa site about a week ago after the allocation got increased - it was publicised quite readily I thought?

Hillsborough for one....

What they didn't sell out on the opening day?

Just Barnsley, Norwich and Newcastle.

They publicised the increase from 2,787 to 3,362, but not from 3,362 to 3,849. Means that with all those buying tickets in the neutral end from last Summer onwards, the last two away games will have approx. 7000 at each. Unofficially in the case of Fulham of course.

Cracking efforts. New ground novelties or d'you reckon you'll sell out everywhere next year providing you're up there (which you will be)?

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Nope JJH was about 80 light.

It should hold up well if our PL away followings and support to grounds we've been to regularly this season is anything to go by. Pleased that Bolton look like they're coming up as that's one the fans like and will replace Wigan and Blackburn in part if the latter go.

Places like Hillsborough we wouldn't sell out the full allocation again at £42 a pop, unless it were Saturday 3pm and in good form.

 

[Kilburn Ram]

1 610 sell out for Brentford on Friday.

Always a good day out in London.

Why are they still allowed terracing? Not complaining but I assume there is a new ground in the offing?

don't be silly.

if we have a better season, top two or play offs then I'd say our away support will be even better. I think this season only Newcastle will have taken more away.

You didn't sell out dickhead

Building a new ground, got an extension on how long to have terracing.

Our ticket allocation for the opening Sky Bet Championship clash with Sheffield Wednesday has now sold out.

That means a terrific following of 4,544 will make the journey to Hillsborough for the Sunday August 7 encounter, which kicks off at 4.30pm.

Definitely sold out, a good week before game. Not sure where you getting your info from!

If we are pushing for promotion I am pretty sure we will sell out everywhere. If we are mid table again not sure if away support will hold up as well as it has this year. Looking forward to Sheffield Utd though as always a good away day.

means fuck all. How many times a season are teams allocated X amount of tickets but when the official numbers come out they are less or sometimes more than what was supposedly allocated. It sold out.

 

[tiltontrev]

Our last three aways of the season have all sold out now, I must've literally got some of the last few for Bristol this morning as I got my confirmation email the the club put up SOLD OUT on the fb page. Has the chances of being another Bolton from a few years back, except this year it'll be both teams trying to survive.

Kudos to Bristol City, £15 adults £1 kids, they could have charged double + and still sold them all.

Agree, you sold out.

 

[Bartonyellow]

I'm expecting a large following from us on Monday at St. Andrews. Believe we have already sold 1100. I expect 2200-2500 as we took 2800 to villa.
