Stevie Whitehall Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 How many fans are going down to Wall on Tuesday? I predict a following of 213. Quote
jsslatic Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 The three London games in a row is a ballache, especially if you're not moving down until the end of September I'm guessing a fair few, including myself, are choosing just the one to head down to, and that one will be Brentford. Quote
Stevie Whitehall Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 Stevie Whitehall, are you going? I sure am, Nino. Quote
Lags Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 (edited) This season will see the fewest numbers travelling over the entire season in many a year I reckon. The amount of long aways this season is unprecendented for me. Number of Tics at Millwall my guess is 147. EDIT: The club must be bracing itself against likewise visiting BP.

School holidays may ensure that more people travel than would in term time (myself included). Quote
jsslatic Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 EDIT: The club must be bracing itself against likewise visiting BP. Really? I'd have thought if the majority of games are down south then that would make northern games for the southern fans more affordable. We'll see. Quote
longtimeblue Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Was disappointing when i get up the steps on saturday and looked up, thought first away day in the sun we'd take 5/600 - based on saturday if 200 turn up it'll be a good show Quote
Markoasis Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Really? I'd have thought if the majority of games are down south then that would make northern games for the southern fans more affordable. We'll see. I would have thought that, all the local derbies would leave more £££ to do a big trip to BP etc Quote

My first away game will probably be Charlton - the distances involved this year, equating to the cost and other commitments and the boredom factor of the same teams year after year means that 10 years ago, I'd have been there now the costs in terms of time and money means it's hard to justify. I usually go to 15-20 away games a season last season it was 10, this season it's likely to be less - although i'm eyeing up Bristol Rovers suspiciously in September. ps. Carlisle the other night is a case in point, crap first round cup-tie weakened team £12 to get in, £18 coach no reductions for kids proggy, beer, possibly a meal - so even for a :censored:ty league cup tie for me and my boy (ok reduced admin for him) be looking at not much change out of £100. The only away games he'll be going to this season may be The Boundary Blues subsidised ones. Be lucky if there's 200 at The New Den...Brentford? Well i'm going camping with the family that weekend, rather get pissed wet through in a field than stood on a terrace in west London (again) Quote
Tindall Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 This season will see the fewest numbers travelling over the entire season in many a year I reckon. The amount of long aways this season is unprecendented for me. Number of Tics at Millwall my guess is 147. EDIT: The club must be bracing itself against likewise visiting BP. I'll see you down there old man Quote
leeslover Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 I would have thought that, all the local derbies would leave more £££ to do a big trip to BP etc Really? Don’t see it working like that myself. If we were playing away at some random Northern town tomorrow night, my expenses would amount to a number of off licence beers, because I wouldn’t be going, as it is I will be spending £20 in, about a fiver travel and a considerable number of beers at over £3 a pop. Doesn’t save me any money to get up to Oldham with Quote
ritchie82 Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 478, I believe Tindall is bringing a firm of handy lads with him. Quote
razza699 Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Ive just had a bet with my Millwall collegue maybe im mad Quote

Well i'm going camping with the family that weekend, rather get pissed wet through in a field than stood on a terrace in west London (again) It wasn't a dig at people for not going, all the reasons mentioned are entirely valid - It was just a bit of a gutter from an atmosphere/football point of view (initially) we've all done aways when others haven't and vice versa Just spent the morning bigging up our away support to a liverpool fan who turned out for the game Quote
