Going to this with our lad. Did not renew STs, but promised him away games. Didn't think we'd make many, but this will be our fourth so far this season. He's loving it.
Off to Bradford too next month.
Thanks to Elfsborg and co. for train ticket and match ticket info it means we have done it fairly cheap too. Good old Charltonlife helping to keep the next generation attached to their club.
Clive and me are on lager that day if you want to thank us properly!
how many do you seriously think would travel 2 hours in November for a lunchtime game that is live on the box, we aren't exactly pulling trees either???

Two hours is nothing travelling time, being on the tele would put off a few, but look at these figures.
Carlisle, Portsmouth and Plymouth are all outposts and have repeatedly longer distances than London to Swindon.
We should be taking 700 to this, apart from anything else we have lots of people boycotting The Valley who were expressing interest at going to more away games as a result.

A 12pm kickoff, £25, live on Sky AND we're missing 3 attacking players (Lookman, Magennis and Botaka) with Holmes possibly absent as well
the 600 will probably be in the corner of their main stand, doubt they are even opening the uncovered seated terrace.....we could've probably had 3k if we'd wanted

Think 500 is pretty respectable considering the restrictions, TV and time.
I was expecting half that
Although not unexpected as generally speaking we are not known for taking masses to away games.
1378 Luton
1015 Grimsby
984 Carlisle
956 Portsmouth
725 Plymouth

500 is a great effort
Didn't we only get 600ish as an allocation anyway?
