Not true-I'd say we took around 600. A lot arrived late due to the transport chaos, & a few had to leave early to get back to Euston on time for pre -booked trains.

F*cking nightmare with the engineering works, we did a tour of London on the under-ground,then a bus from Stratford what a shit hole that was. We then had to queue for tickets and did not get in the ground until 3-25pm, then had to leave at 4-30pm for a bus to Canning Town another shit hole, to get the tube back to Euston for 6-20pm. This did include several stops for liquid refreshent :drinks:. I estimate there we took about 800, poor turn-out for the first away game.

Walking down from Canning Town station we didn't see a single Bolton fan until we'd rounded the ground. Proper shit-hole there too, I though Elephant & Castle was bad.

 

 

Had a 3 mile walk from Barking with many WHU. Traffic was a nightmare. Turned it into a mini pub crawl. Also didn't see any other trotters until near enough at the ground. Thought the turn out was OK considering tube problems. Made a decent bit of noise too. :good: Chatting with a few WHU in the evening, They were concentrating more on their inadequacies rather than slagging us.

I would say there were more Bolton fans inside Upton Park at full time than WH

 

:yahoo:

Steward told one of our party that we'd sold a few over 400

 

I'd have guessed at 500

 

Very poor turnout, but those that were there were supportive and loud

 

I'd rather it be like that than us take 4,000 negative fookers

Never really noticed it before, but the area around Upton Park is a reet mess. It's also like a bigger version of Daubhill :nea:

 

Oh and i'd have said there was about 600 of us there, constanstly abusing Rob Green :D

Sorry but we had more than 400 there. That would be 20 rows of 20 people and that doesn't tally with what I saw at all....

Fair enough, but that's what a steward* told Marple White

 

Didn't look like that many more from where I was - there were huge gaps.

 

* Not the same steward that Gumbo and Big E spent 10 mins of the second half under the stands trying to convince to let them make her airtight :rolleyes2:

Am I missing something here ?? What did Kevin Davies do wrong ??

He dared to score a goal and therefore he did something wrong in Grant's opinion

Didn't move his foot when Upson went to headbutt his big toe.

We may have only sold 400 ticket prior to the game, but there were loads of wanderers fans in the queue buying tickets on the day.

 

Still say 800 plus.

from looking at the away end on MOTD, it wasn't 800, no chance

 

we only have the last block and there wss loads of empty seats

 

800 is around a 1/4 of teams normally get, and then the blocks go right across the goal and to the left of it

 

certainly wasn't 1/4 full - 500 sounds about right

On MOTD you couldn't see half the block we were in as most of us were sat under a concrete underhang (crap ground).

Enjoy it when we have a smaller following and win !! (gives you more space to go mental when we score)

Can always say I was there. Fair play to everyone who went - tough travel with the tube down and

got behind the team for the entire game.

 

Got to admit though, 500 is about right (not even a full block sold). Still pretty poor following

in the scheme of things. I would think a lot of people were thinking of going to either Arsenal or West Ham

with the cost etc

Not sure about how many of us,I would have said 600-700 but made enough noise for 3 times that

first time I have been got tube to stratford,how they are ever going to cope with the olympics beats me they couldnt even cope with 32000,had to walk back from ground to stratford and we walked faster than the the buses over the 2+mile walk

Looks like the cockney wankers attacked a coach full of kids and scarfers.

Fucking bet it was Rombo and co.

 

 

 

I am led to believe there's more to that than is in that article. So much as to say, there are nobbers are allowed to get on official coaches after acting Charlie Largefeet in the ground and provoking home fans.

What do you mean by provoking?
