I’d say if we was ever fortunate enough to have a successful season we’d urine that , considering geographical location , league position and average home support we are without doubt the leagues best travellers

Or are we the league’s worst home support (against potential home support obviously) because it’s so difficult for casual fans to buy tickets and the remaining seats are all rubbish and the general facilities and fan experience is poor. It’s the elephant in the room that the current owners won’t talk about… BP not being fit for purpose at this level let alone the level the owners say they have ambition to get to. If a new stadium is a non-starter then a new, bigger main stand with modern facilities (for fans and players) and excellent disabled vantage points is the obvious thing to pursue.

Not sure the elephant in the room analogy works in this context. It’s more an elephant that everyone talks about endlessly but is too big to get out the door, so it’s going to have to wait until someone finds the money to knock a hole in the wall.

And how many of those brought anywhere near that many to BP this season? 3 or 4, maybe? Other than the obvious ones, most away fans see us, rightly, as a backwater and don’t travel here. I think a lot of those figures listed are ballooned by the occasional big number for their relative local games.

Bradford are the ones for me that seem to disappoint on the road , they get 3 times our home support yet their fans dont seem to want to travel , despite having a lot better transport links than us, I also thoght Stockport would have had done better on the road.

Not sure how accurate those figures are on that site as there are discrepancies between that and the list below which is taken from the away support thread on TFF. I'd be very surprised if we averaged over 1000.
1552 Wrexham 1258 Mansfield Town 1163 Stockport County 1126 Notts County 1093 Bradford City 867 Grimsby Town 695 Doncaster Rovers 687 Gillingham 679 Walsall 669 Swindon Town 657 Tranmere Rovers 597 AFC Wimbledon 566 Crewe Alexandra 498 MK Dons 414 Barrow 355 Newport County 349 Colchester United 337 Morecambe 245 Sutton United 225 Accrington Stanley 223 Crawley Town 187 Forest Green Rovers 186 Salford City 173 Harrogate Town

They’re not correct. The ones listed higher up are the accurate figures (and not from an internet message board).

Yeah, they're from a clickbait local news rag. The ones I've posted are calculated and averaged as the season goes and checked in match reports. Admittedly, there is room for human error there but they're usually spot on. Like I said, I highly doubt we averaged over 1000.
