Our away following 16th in league in terms of numbers

Below likes of luton blackpool and Middlesbrough (who top it).

Have to say a little surprised how poor our away support is now. Is it just due to efforts on the pitch or anything else? Is this due to coivd restrictions maybe? I thought our away following used to be half decent?

What surprises me us that you think that an AVERAGE away following of over 1200 people is ‘poor’ in the current financial and covid situation. This includes midweek away games at places like Hull, Middlesborough, Peterborough and Barnsley. Not shabby at all in my opinion.

Middlesbrough usually sell out at places like Barnsley (4,500) ,Preston (5,000) and teams within two hours which boost these numbers .

They took 9,500 to Old Trafford for a night match in the cup

We took 7,000 (sold out) to Anfield for a Sunday morning.

This makes a big difference.

Teams up north have a lot of away games which are close where they are given big allocations.
Big away ends at Preston, Blackburn, Sheff Utd, Huddersfield, Barnsley Hull, etc..
All out closest games are at places where we are only given around 2k
