saturday away trips at bournemouth and brighton, two london games (admittedly one on the box) , new ground rotherham / against that norwich midweek and hudders being a bit far and a lack of defeats this season mean that's a solid number but it will go down as the more northern trips kick in
Too early in the season for these figures to be meaningful, for us anyway. Leeds on tuesday will be 250 or there abouts. Still got bolton, blackburn, boro, wednesday + derby (on a Tuesday).
Sure midweek northern trips won't get me out but I may well be at Reading and Millwall? Would be interesting to see like for like CAFC gates away compared to last two seasons to see if better prospects have an impact?
That must be aound the 10% mark of our home crowd, I don't think that is too bad. Not that it really bothers me much. We are not a northern club (who love to come to London) or one of the bigger London clubs, we never have had huge number of fans. I like the fact we are different.

if it makes you feel better we had about 6k at fulham including the neutral bit it was packed and we'll have at least 1k at leeds tomorrow night
Even took 1k plus to Rotherham on a Tuesday night.
We've got Fulham on a Friday night too...hopefully have more luck than you guys did!

There support has increased massively this season. Didn't think they had a good travelling support but there getting some good number recently.
We'd usually take a few to London teams and the likes of Reading but certainly numbers have been boosted in terms of the long distance games.
