Berkshire Saint Posted 28 March, 2011 Share Posted 28 March, 2011 They are on sale online. Had tickets for the original date (was staying in Sheffield in that weekend so was pretty convenient) and was initially going to get a refund, never got round to it and have now decided to drive up on the night. Should be a good laugh, albeit a depressing journey back if we lose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dune Posted 4 April, 2011 Share Posted 4 April, 2011 It'd be good if we could muster a sizeable away support for this one.

Helps being a new ground for most and Easter holidays but we never take that many north of Birmingham.

dune Posted 4 April, 2011 Share Posted 4 April, 2011 Let's hope we do have loads up there but I reckon 1500 at the most to be honest. I always think our northern support is better though. You get more Saints fans from the Midlands/North who are more up for it because they haven't become lethargic from going regularly, you also get less familys, and those that do make the long treks are more dedicated. That said 1500 would be a good turnout for a night match for us. It just shows how our away support has really grown from how it was a decade ago.

Nexstar Posted 4 April, 2011 Share Posted 4 April, 2011 Hmm, we had 468 at Oldham on a Tuesday. More important game and a new ground for many should see a few more added to that number. 800 I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More important game and a new ground for many should see a few more added to that number. 800 I reckon That was our lowest away support this season but we still had about the same at Oldham for a rearranged midweek winter fixture than high-flying Brighton had a couple of Saturdays ago so it's not so bad. And we had more than 800 last season and similar this year for midweek trips away to Hartlepool, 1000 at the last 2 trips to Carlisle and 2,200 at Notts County. Sheff Wed was around 1500. Win Tuesday and pick up a result next weekend at Orient and I think we'll see 1500 at Rochdale, which would be very good for a 500-mile-round-trip midweek.

JRM Posted 5 April, 2011 Share Posted 5 April, 2011 It would outstanding! it would, but I thnk we should have at least 1500 for the promotion run in, Oldham being the smallest was understandable being a tuesday night in early January re-arranged at short notice, but the 6-0 was fitting reward for those who made the journey. Has anyone kept a record of our away numbers at all the aways this season? will be interesting to work out the average (unfortunately some of the local ones where we could have taken huge numbers like Bournemouth and Brighton we only have tiny allocations) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffo Posted 5 April, 2011 Share Posted 5 April, 2011 Away Averages Wednesday 1,835 Southampton 1,443 Brighton 1,403 Huddersfield 1,253 Charlton 802 Bournemouth 797 Plymouth 729 Exeter 698 Peterborough 673 Oldham 662 Swindon 596 Carlisle 536 Bristol Rovers 525 Brentford 507 Rochdale 478 Leyton Orient 475 Notts County 470 Yeovil 341 MK Dons 316 Colchester 314 Tranmere 300 Dag & Red 294 Walsall 214 Hartlepool 202 These were the averages after our game at Charlton on the 22nd.

Good work mate, what is your source? We still have to come 3100 Orient 894 Brighton 1800 Brentford 2100 Plymouth Our average would be much higher if we could have taken more to the sold out fixtures. off the top of my head sold out away games are: Bournemouth Exeter Bristol Rovers ? Brentford (will be for sure) Orient Dagenham & Redbridge Yeovil? Brighton Plymouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More important game and a new ground for many should see a few more added to that number. 800 I reckon Felt like a lot more to be honest, never too sure how reliable some of these figures are when a lot of people pay on the gate. Would be great to take LOADS to Rochdale, can't wait for this one - new ground; northern, midweek away trip to an old, rund-down Lancashire Mill town; massive game in our push for promotion; overnighter on the beer in Manc.

100%Red&White Posted 5 April, 2011 Share Posted 5 April, 2011 Shame we still haven't got to go to Hillsborough, could have taken a lot of fans up there at this stage of the season. Bigger shame is that we've already played at MK Dons, easy journey and we could have had 10k for that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffo Posted 5 April, 2011 Share Posted 5 April, 2011 (edited) We can only get something like a maximum of 12,000 in our remaining away games. It is virtually impossible to overtake Wednesday's away average unfortunately. I reckon we could have about 1,500 at Rochdale, bearing in mind it's half term too. Brighton took 1,400 to Rochdale on Saturday. Edited 5 April, 2011 by Griffo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM Posted 6 April, 2011 Share Posted 6 April, 2011 Rochdale is another one of those games where a lot of people had bought tickets in preparation for it being a saturday game. and so will still go up for the re-arranged fixture where they may not have done if originally scheduled for mid-week. Walsall was like this where we took 1450 up there on a Tuesday. I think being a new ground for most definitely makes a difference, as we have seen on the 92 league grounds thread quite a few of us have managed to get our ground count up, this will put me on 72. would be nice to know exactly how many tickets have been sold so far, a win at orient a hopefully a few more will decide to make the journey.

Lighthouse Posted 10 April, 2011 Share Posted 10 April, 2011 I've just sent Mike this message on Facebook, but Royce if you and your mate both want to come we can make it work cost wise. Would be about £10 each for fuel and £8 each to rent the people carrier. BTW, we're going to be leaving Bristol/So'ton about 12pm, so if you can't make it that early this is also pointless discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
