seasider Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Blackpool fan in peace. We have been given an allocation of just 2,305 for our last fixture of the season. http://www.blackpoolfc.co.uk/news/article/ticket-news-bolton-wanderers-765947.aspx Considering we took 4,000 to Blackburn, we would expect around 4,500 to travel to Bolton. I know our away stand is small so perhaps you are returning the favour, but is there any reason why the allocation is so small compared to the Premier League game? Thanks in advance.

DIPS Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) You'll most likely be given the upper tier once you sell the lower out first. Infct after looking at the link you will be, which will bring your allocation closer to 5k I.e the whole stand .

RUREADY2ROLL Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Sell them and you are likely to get more up to 5000 Should follow us though rather than tin pot of a club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazBob Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Because there'll be no room left due to it being a complete sell-out. The lure of confirming our play-off spot whilst relegating your lot will be too tempting for any potential stay-away fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forever in Bolton's shadow Blackburn average more than us away from home? Now I know you don't follow football properly. fcuk me, how small are blackpool we'd be taking 15k to theirs if it was us who had to get something to stay up Just like we filled 5,000 at Wigan, Blackburn and Bolton in the Premier League and we would fill our allocation whatever it might be at Bolton even with all the shit we have had this season. We would sell the whole stand hence why I am asking why such a small allocation. Horwich is an easy journey on the train unlike when your ground was actually in Bolton.

At least our ground is a permanent fixture not like your tinpot shed which was partly thrown up as an after thought when you fluked promotion.

Because you probably won't even sell that many. According to official figures Blackpool have only twice taken more than a thousand fans away all season, that was to Barnsley and Blackburn where you took 2,200 not 4,000. Your total away following is just over 15,000, 10,000 less than us and your average away following is 846. Plus the fact that we will get a big crowd just prior to the play off semi's.

Underpants Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not saying the donkey is wrong with the oranges away following. But can someone hunt down that away fans table that MGwhite posted on here a week or two back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you insane? We sold out our initial 3,500 and loads paid on the day. We took 2,700 to Barnsley. Our away figures haven't been great this season but when it comes to the big games and local derbies we will sell out with ease.

seasider Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) Looks like Waffer can't read! The Blackburn figure is missing but it was around 3,900. As long as we get the allocation, add another big following for when we play Bolton. Still poor by our seasons but in our defence, the fans have had enough from our chairman penny pinching.

I agree and I can't defend our support this season but we have had a dismal season but Blackburn have also. I still think 4,000 to Blackburn and 5,000 to Bolton will increase our average.

davidjack Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Our average is lower than it should be in that table cos our following at Blackburn is missing. What did we take there? 3k+ (was a night match) ? Puts average above 1400, which given the shite we've had to endure for most of the season is very good.
