RaspberryRed Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Whilst most off us struggled to shake off a New Year hangover. Fair play to the 923 hardy souls who made the 250+ mile round trip to cheer on the boys today. Great and unexpected result. Happy New Year and a safe journey home.

cidercity1987 Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Fair play to those that went but it's a crap attendance, not that far. Need to think bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tickets went off sale before Xmas i think. Many people were waiting to see how we did and decided late to go only to find they couldnt get tickets. Yes it was a great away performance. Frustrated the home team, remained patient and then pounced when we could for the kill. My tally for the season is now 3 away wins, one away draw and yet to see us conceed, so im well happy!

22A Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 There I was thinking 9-2-3 was a line up to avoid conceding goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 To those that dont seem to think its a poor attendance. Swansea, who have less fans than us, worse form, lower in the table, 150 miles to Reading, 2000 fans. Us, 125 miles to Stoke (not the other end of the world as some would make out), not played there for 10 years, less than 900 fans. I could find many more examples Im sure. This thread is a bit Gas like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it is the same bile every week whilst not attending himself. I would have went today if it was POTD but they stopped that and I wasn't sure I could make it a week ago - expect a few more would have went as well if POTD.

allyolly Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 I wonder whether Wilbraham was included in the 923. Great to see him supporting the lads today. Top man and well up for a chat about his time at City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hampshire Red Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 The fixture has been 3pm for months so no excuses at all for a dire and embarrassing turn out. We had decent numbers at Swansea and Brentford but going north our effort is feeble, despite good performances and great wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had decent numbers at Swansea and Brentford but going north our effort is feeble, despite good performances and great wins in fairness, I think just under a thousand is fantastic given it's New Year's Day and the fact that there's still a cloud of disillusionment (rightly or wrongly) hanging in the air. Expecting more is a little unrealistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBibs Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Proud to have made up 3 of the 923 along with the 2 teenagers I drove up. Not going to criticise anyone for not going as it’s an expensive business going to away games. @RedM - Thought my 3 wins and 1 defeat from away games this season was pretty good but you’ve trumped me. I’ve seen every home game apart from Sheff U so seen as many away wins in 4 trips as I have at home all season. Well done the 920 others today. Fantastic noisy positive support.

Seemed like it from where I was standing. Didn’t think they were that bad and we had all the luck going. Maybe evens out the luck we didn’t get in the reverse fixture.
