Only about 600 .. which granted was a huge following from us at the time

i'm waiting for Creaky to regale us with tales of Spurs in 1921 when we took 10,000

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

Derby County Baseball Ground. F.A. Cup 5th round.1975-76 Season. The F.A. Cup was much more important in those days.
The crowd was 31,918. Quite a few Thousand were Southend.

 

[BrettieAngell]

Cambridge near the end of L2 promotions season, seem to remember we had half or even possibly more of the crowd!

I've been to most of the ones already mentioned, Everton, Wednesday, Mill Stad etc.

[EnglandShrimper]

[silentshrimper]

Cheers, that will be the most I have been with then, not counting millenium stadium visits.

Seem to recall we took a pretty large following to Forest in our L1 season (to see us lose) - 1,500+? We had almost 1,000 at Crawley not that long ago as well.

About 2300 IIRC, a week later we were at Port Vale and took more than 2000 less

935 and 915 at Crawley and Daggers thus far this season

Top statting Pete :thumbsup:

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

Quality find, DoDtS.

:thumbsup:

Lordy, I am a shameless glory hunter - for someone who sees my beloved Blues as infrequently as I do, I managed to be at almost half of the away games in the top 30 (with last night's game making it into the top 30 - impressive):

Of those, no. 1 was the best, and no. 7 the worst...!

 

[EnglandShrimper]

Guess we can add a few more now including the 1016 we had at lincoln last season.

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

I managed 46 of those

38 Millwall
44 Coventry
45 Luton
46 Sheff Weds

the exceptions

 

[Smiffy]

All this talk of away attendances has got me thinking that we should arrange one away game a season, where we all make the effort to get to it. We set a target following and all do our best to plug it. We'll make it a party atmosphere as well and provide the things to do so.

I'll have a think and come up with something...

But at the moment I'm thinking Cheltenham on Sat Dec 10th or perhaps Northampton on Sat 14th Jan?

 

[EnglandShrimper]

It would probably be better for a more local one that most people can get to.
