GeoTheCiderHead Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Felt absolutely rammed in there today. We must of had a lot of pay on the day fans. Surely we nearly took up the allocation in the end. Anyone hear what the official number was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stortfordred Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Felt absolutely rammed in there today.You must have been in the right hand side. There was loads of room in the left pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scroobs Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 For a team in the position were in and forgetting about cost etc, it was a poor away following. Talking to some Colchester lads after the game, they said it was one of the poorest away followings of the season for a Saturday. I think there away end holds about 1,800.

I think there away end holds about 1,800.Think whether people like the reason or not, this fixture is the result of "cherry picking" the run-in to match finances.Not the easiest to reach from Bristol traffic-wise, a ground well known for being the crappest in the division, unattractive side playing poor football with a key 13 game run in to come with some big ties.If I was in a financial position not to be able to make it, then this'd be one that'd get the chop I'm afraid.

Seating was full and standing was nicely packed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there away end holds about 1,800.People like me have only had one pay day since Xmas so money is still tight really. And then there is some much bigger away games coming up, Charlton, Cardiff, Stoke etc. If I would have gone to Colchester I wouldn't be able to go to Charlton. And no disrespect to Colchester but I would rather go to Charlton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Grim Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 The seating was pretty much full, the right pen looked full, couldn't see the left hand side of the goal though. Really good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a large part of determining peoples attendance, as in the case quoted below.People like me have only had one pay day since Xmas so money is still tight really.

It is a large part of determining peoples attendance, as in the case quoted below.Totally agree. this discussion has been done to death what with season ticket price debates, yet we still find people who don't see the cost of following football these days a problem. Just match ticket and travel for an away game is £50+...then all your extra's on top.I would have loved to have gone yesterday, but with games away at Cardiff, Southampton, Stoke and Sheff u come up....for some of us, away games have to be carefully chosen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
