Away Days 22:31 - Jan 18 with 6578 viewsSAS

Being over here in Australia and only watching SFC on the box at all sorts of ungodly hours, I am interested to know if anyone knows what the average travelling fan numbers are please.

i went to that game and there may have been 10-12k pompey there but no way 15K

your away support though resonanable numbers is a bit up and down only 1,180 to Gillingham on New years day a few days after taking 5k to Mk dons and 1800 to Bolton yet only 733 to Accrington

our worst attendances still over 1,000 for every game including 1,200 at Man City twice in a week following our 9-0 hammering form Leicester, our biggest problem is the allocation the club keeps taking eg Chelsea and Leicester which both sold out 34 weeks before game and yet we didn't ask for more tickets


There was 13k that travelled officially, and 2k that made there own way up. Not a big deal, but apparently we don't do northern grounds.

at the time it was your cup final your biggest game in years, also days before Saints hatred got so bad, i know quite a few Saints fans who went up to the game in the Pompey end

in the same period we took 10k plus to West Brom, and Forest in the cup and regulary took 6 or 7k to away games as Bristol Rovers, Oxford, Fullham, Orient and other away games

Exactly this !!

They hadn't played Liverpool at Anfield for more than 20 years, as Pompey had been languishing in the lower leagues. This really was their cup final, but seem to recall they lost 3 or 4-1.

Anyone know how many they took to the likes of Walsall, Fleetwood or Accrington over the last month or so ?

It wasn't even the club's biggest game that year, the club took around 8,000 fans to a L2 ground a few months earlier

Brilliant, so as a top flight club you took less than a lower league club to Anfield. We also took 9,000 to Notts county recently as a L2 club, and last year to 6,300 to MK dons, amongst others.

I thought you'd like that. Remember, we have had worse owners, therefore our protests would have been bigger.

Apparently Soton had some type of protest in 1985 when they couldn't sell out their stadium

It's funny isnt it, 8,000 in the 80's, that was a protest
1500 at the Checkatrade trophy, that was a protest, apart from the final of course when the protest stopped and you all came out of the woodwork
2,700 at home we blackburn, yep, just that game was a protest too.

Although I've just looked at your attendances, seeing as how between 1970 and 2002 you only managed to get an average attendance of more than 15k three times it looks like you were protesting for all of the 70's, 80's and 90's too!

It’s amazing isn’t it, that as soon as they put a new stand up, the attendances went right up, without any real improvement on the field. Then as soon as they got a decent owner, the attendances went up even further. Kind of shows that what I have said is correct hey?

What is amazing is that the stands must have only been open for certain games each season, just taking a random look I can see that in 1998 for example, when you averaged 11,970 your biggest attendance was 17,022, or in 1983 when you averaged 14,095, your biggest crowd was 24,354. Were these the games where there weren't protests or when you had good owners or when the figures weren't duped to avoid paying tax? it's impossible to tell.

The pull of a big visiting team will always bring the punters out, despite how average the home team is. I am sure your attendances are bigger when you play Liverpool or Man Utd rather than Watford. It’s not hard to understand, and yes a lot of the owners in the old days miscounted gates in order to make extra money, and Pompey were certainly one of the worst clubs. Part of the reason the fans kept away was the lack of funding into the team and infrastructure. The old Fratton End was pulled down in 86 and wasn’t replaced for 12 years, and just left as a relic with around 10 steps.

I love it how Soton fans like talking about attendances, and know all the nuances

We would never get AVERAGE crowds as low as 8000 and you know it. I guess you’re just not a footballing city .

Soton fans getting excited about attendances



If the owner is cooking the books, then Pompey probably haven't averaged that low you goon. Soton has never been as badly managed as Pompey, but still managed super low attendances figures, the difference being that they never managed huge numbers on the terraces,

So we've got....

Protests
crap stands
crap owners
owners faking the attendances

all to justify why you're attendances have been sh1te for the last 50 years

This is comedy gold, keep them comin'

Simple questions.

Which club has been run the best over the last 50 years?
Which club went bankrupt the most?
Did Soton ever have it's main stand pulled down and left for 12 years?

So it would appear that their biggest following in God knows how many years was at Wembley v Sunderland in the EFL Trophy last season - in a competition they WERE ACTUALLY BOYCOTTING !! How fickle

As he lives abroad, I suppose that explains why 130 claimed he boycotted that final and means he can continue to boycott to his heart's content whilst focusing his wacky agendas on rival mongboards, even when his team is playing !!

130 doesn't live abroad, he never goes to games as he never leaves his bedroom.

He just sits there all day bashing away on a rivals messageboard. Lonely, obsessed, deluded.
