Plenty of room for more. As mentioned by a few of us over the years, if only bigger followings improved away results! It seems to fire up the home team, and as well as we played v Sunderland I'm sure the 5k away following fired up our players more than their's.

Maybe around 2k which isn't shabby but I did expect more with the run we're on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Us and a lot of regulars are not going as it’s an awful away day experience. 2K would be commendable, but the southerners will bump it up.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 21, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted February 21, 2022 How long ago did alcohol get banned on any coaches (and trains*, I think) travelling to football games because give or take about 10 seconds either way, I’d say it was a similar time the Travel Club coaches became a last rather than a first resort. They became far too sanitized with “grown ups” occupying the front seats. * I seem to recall every train heading in the general direction of a football match had two or three British Transport Police walking from one end to the other checking for booze. Lads with kids would post their offspring at the end of their carriage as lookouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 21, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted February 21, 2022 Used to enjoy going on the travel club in my teens and early twenties. Arriving early, and time for a relaxed drink and some grub if wanted before kick off. Never really understood the criticism of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
