    You're absolutely right, ties against Scunthorpe and Chelsea are definitely comparable.

    I'm not comparing the two, I just don't get all the rovers bashing when they've taken a big away following when we would be doing the same if it was us

    You sound as stupid as the Gasheads bleating about attendances on social media.

    Its not unusual for lower league clubs to pack out the away end of a Premiership ground for a 'glamour' cup tie. Chelsea is hardly difficult to get to either. 

    Fair play and all that for taking 4K to Chelsea, we'd have done the same. In the league which is both clubs 'bread and butter' we easily beat them on home attendances and in average take more away than them every year that I can remember, so no, I don't think we need to look at our own support based on how many we took to Scunthorpe on a Tuesday night, 2nd round league cup match.

    Why? 

    We fielded a reserve team in a cup we never do well in (especially in recent years), fans have to travel a good 4 hours plus for a midweek game... did you expect us to take 000's?

    Gas took 4000 in what was their biggest cup game probably ever... or since they returned to the FL. 

    I'm not knocking either, I get how far away our game was tonight and that it was one of rovers biggest games in years but Why knock them for it? I know it's only banter between fans but surely the time to knock them is when we've taken big support when they've only taken a small amount. As much as every hates to admit it both Bristol clubs are well supported for their respective positions and the trips to Wembley prove this.
