Never to the dark side Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 according to the local paper the Lancashire Post, 464 tickets would have been sold although I don't think all of them made the journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollydog Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Looked fewer than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weepywall Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Good numbers that, hell of a journey mid week especially as they were at Norwich on Saturday. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slippin cider Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Pretty quite all round last night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Billy Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Seemed like half that number. I wonder if the number that actually turned up was due to it being rearranged. They sold that number but refunded half maybe? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always remember that a number of opposition fans might be exiles living in the West Country and a game at City is their easiest option to watch their hometown team.

Offside Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 That would be a decent turnout for a midweek game, but it certainly didn’t look that many to me. Like others have said, it looked like about half that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBibs Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 Looked like 300 odd to me. Bizarrely some of their fans tried to cause a bit of trouble after the game, according to my daughter’s social media. Anyone see anything?

Admin phantom Posted October 13, 2022 Admin Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I thought it odd that so few were able to spread over such a large area of the stand Surely would have made sense to have sat them all in one block Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magicdaps Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 I wonder if they're home yet? I noticed four of them getting in a Micra after the game and didn't envy that 200 mile return journey, especially after conceding a late goal to go home empty handed. It must have been like a silent movie crossed with the Inbetweeners. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard that they have a weird element of late teen early twenties fans who are wannabe hooligans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I had that pic of the G@s mongoloids that was doing the rounds a while back. People were photo shopping it with them holding pizzas and other inane items taking the p!ss. Anyone got any examples or did I dream it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite impressive for them actually as they generally think of around 13,000 as an average home attendance. As also mentioned a long trip to Norwich a few days earlier. I think it was £31 match ticket for them too. Coach was £29 so that's £60 alone. I think it was similar for them at Norwich, but my friend did comment that our ground was one of the most expensive away days, so not a cheap couple of days for them. They do have a few troublemakers, I think mainly because they have so many derby matches, they just seem to get used to the niggle. Blackpool are their most hated, very similar to us and the Gas. Whilst chatting to my friend a few of their mates came over, young 'lads' and they were great to chat with and we could have a laugh about both our teams. Not all opposing fans are bad, not all 'lads' are bad either but there are always some who spoil it for others. I hope we can meet up again for the away game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
