Quoted from lukeo
How many tickets where we given? Realistically anytime we take over 500 is a good following. Average 4,000 at home means whenever we take 1,000 away fans it equates to 25% (1/4) of our home support which is fantastic for any club.


The level overall is good, but you've got to compare the Mansfield ticket sales (and it's early days yet) against other away days against clubs in the region (and previous season), not comparing us to other clubs. So your benchmarks are the away days against Lincoln, Chesterfield and Donny, and Mansfield last season of course. It might hot up when (if) they go on general sale because you will get more of the exiles with Mansfield being closer to the Midlands.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The way our fans are treated by the Police, stewards and clubs its no wonder the support is going down.


This. Though it's not as bad as Cheltenham/forest green/Stevenage. YET.

I honestly think the slow start to the season, team rebuilding etc has had a greater effect than policing or stewards

It was 1 for 1 for season ticket holders which makes it trickier for people going in groups and the next lot of tickets were only available to those who'd gone to the checkatrade game. I expect a bit of a boost now they're on general sale.

It shows that there's no need for a 1 for 1 allocation for sth

I'm not going to lie, I pencilled in 6 away games this year and I'm not reconsidering after being at Stevenage. £50 it'll cost me just for tickets, for someone in a bog standard paid job it's alot of money to watch excrement.. So at the moment I'm 50 / 50 about Newport away

I think you mean being told what to do!

I don't think you can castigate the stewards for following orders, although they should never have been given those instructions (if that's what happened)

The old 'only following orders' defence doesn't stand up in court.

Why does it make it hard for STH going in groups? All you do is give one of them the stub from each book and the can get them in one go. I'm a STH but don't expect to get the opportunity of an extra one
