Rotherham away...going to be a sell out?
A few hundred left at best. How long before an "any spares" post?

Re: Rotherham away...going to be a sell out?
Yes loads have been sold, but it’s dried up since last Thursday/Friday.
I think all who are going have organised themselves now, may sell a couple more, but not hundreds

How many were we given and how many have been sold ?
2500 is the allocation on their website

Over 1000 sold last week. More since. Not convinced looking at the blocks available that we have taken the full 2500 allocation.

Re: Rotherham away...going to be a sell out?
We probably took an allocation of 1500 tickets.

Re: Rotherham away...going to be a sell out?
Our away support is not what it used to be
The fans who went to Preston are our lifeblood but I thought we would have a healthy following after our recent wins
We used to be renowned for taking a lot of fans all over the country but its not like that at the moment
And that's a shame

Lock downs seem to have done for a fair few of our away support....and, maybe, paying off Qatar. Certainly, fewer are travelling now. Got used to staying at home at a guess plus cost of living going up and less than attractive football. At home, I've counted 10 regulars that no longer attend.

Our away support is much better than it was a decade ago. I was at a midweek game against Derby in 2015(?) when maybe 200 travelled. This season we took 10x that to a midweek game against Coventry.
We’re averaging about 1200 this year which is pretty good going considering we’ve had a few shit seasons and we have to travel further than almost everyone else. I’d guess only Swansea Sunderland and maybe Norwich have further to travel than we do.

Plus you can see midweek games on the red button/buy from the club for £10/use illegal streams.

Swansea have exactly the same away following as us
We used to take the piss out of them but we can't now

All of that certainly factors in

Times change. Over the last 20 years Swansea have been the more successful team. Their fan base has grown a lot because of it. Being on par with Swansea doesn’t mean our support is poor.
The most up to date numbers I could find have our away support at 14th highest this season. Not too shabby considering how the season has gone.

Re: Rotherham away...going to be a sell out?
Rotherham down to 31 left in the blocks open to us. Unless another block goes on sale (unlikely?) looks like a sell out of our allocation is on the cards.

~1500 sold by the looks of it.
Be a shame if Rotherham didn’t give us the last block, 31 tickets should go between now and Saturday. A lot of clubs seem to have stopped doing sales on the day for whatever reason.
