Comfortably had a higher average away attendance last season despite struggling, whilst you were in the top 7 all season. Nah, you can't really use away attendances against us.

Although it seems something of a mystery as to what Kevs point was before he pissed off and disappeared like a Happy Shopper Kaiser Soze. Something about away attendances? We consistently take more away than the Gas, that's a fact....Gods knows if that was the intention of resurrecting this thread? Now City have averaged over 10k at home for 35 of the last 51 years....Rovers still on 5. Kevin, are you there?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, you can't really use away attendances against us. Not so sure it's comfortably? It was about 80 odd higher than ours. You like to remind us of all the nice places and big teams you get to visit, so it's not that great really is it? For what it's worth, we were around tenth until our run circa March.

You like to remind us of all the nice places and big teams you get to visit, so it's not that great really is it? For what it's worth, we were around tenth until our run circa March. They are nice stadiums and big teams but for us trips to St Andrews, the IPro, the City Ground, Elland Rd etc have become the norm for City over most of the last 10 years. There isn't that 'novelty value' boost that clubs get for away support numbers at big grounds you rarely visit. Success on the pitch tends to have a bigger bearing on crowd sizes home and away for clubs like City and Rovers (check your away figures for this season and compare them to your figures from the 13/14 season as an example). No matter what division you're in, fans are more likely to shell out the cash and spend hours travelling if your team are doing well on the pitch. For a large part of this season City were towards the bottom of the form table and the league table. Rovers were top half from October onwards. We still ended up with a better average away following.....as we do every year for as long as I can remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodjias Wrist Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 Well for one we didnt have back to back promotions did we. An excuse im sure rovers would use on us if we ever managed it!. Dont really care much about away attendances. Funnny i know a group of gas heads and only a couple are season ticket holders the rest go to a handful of home games and more away games becaue they love the buzz of getting on the toot and giving it the big one. When they start turning out at home in numbers i wont consider them an embarrasment. UTC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfortable to me considering you love to lie about how great your away attendance is and how it's so much better than ours. Plus you were winning most weeks whilst we were not.

ChippenhamRed Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 Too many variables with regard to away attendance to make comparisons worthwhile - distance, opposition, ticket prices, fixture importance, date and time for starters. Rovers can bleat on about attendances all they want - the facts are, last season we averaged 15k in a 15k three-sided stadium, while they averaged 8k in a 12k three-tented stadium. And for another comparison, the previous year they took 26k to watch one of the most crucial games in their history while we took 40k to watch a paint pot trophy final. So quite why they would even want to mention attendances at all, I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
