Away following (outside the m25)

Apart from the 3 FA Cup quarter finals, when else have we taken nearly 4k away outside the m25 in living memory?

Blackburn in the relegation season from the prem?  I remember sitting in the Ipswich "home" end when I couldn't get an "away" ticket but doubt that was that many.

    'You'll never get a ticket' at the final whistle, flowed by a hail of missiles just outside the ground.

    Was that what I always call "the Ricky Otto" game?  I think we lost 4-2 and Keith Jones scored for them, boxing day? 
  • Ipswich and Wolves - both in the FA Cup. About 7,000 went to Portman Road, and over 10,000 at Molineux.
  • Notts Forest (yellow day)
  • Bournemouth in our League 1 promotion season...admittedly the majority in the home seats.

    Manure 'You're worse than Crystal Palace' at half time notwithstanding it was an FA Cup QF.

  • How many would we have been given at Villa for the 4-3 game?
  • Notts Forest (yellow day)
    How did I forget that one, I was there! A bit diffrent to 2 years before and the £20 game! 
  • We took a fair few to Colchester for the FA Cup 3rd round game in ‘84
  • 1994 at Man Utd was about 10k.

    The two midweek cup games at Anfield in the 90s were pretty big as well.

    I went to both of those and my face was on MotD after I had phoned in sick for work :-)

    92 people isn't a particularly big crowd.
    He meant 92,000.

    Yeah my old man crashed the car on the way home. Hit another Charlton supporter car, who literally lived 50 yards from us.
