Mind-boggling effort just before Xmas too. We took 3k to SOL for the night league game. Now the league cup game is sold out too. Spurs would not have sold out either. Arsenal maybe, Liverpool probably, United definitely. I'd say our away following is up there with the 80s when we were second only to United and Liverpool.
Chelsea, Liverpool and United have by far and away the best away crowd in the country. Very good effort.
Would the Dips sell out a midweek cup tie 300 miles away? Maybe they would. Possibly Arsenal too. Spurs can't even sell out Old T or the Etihad
SAFC supporter here, yes Spurs did not sell out up here but you did. Fulham brought about 200 supporters up !, Liverpool, Man u, Arsenal all big support up here. With the league cup game being shown live, I reckon there might only be 23,000 there, plus how bad our season is going. although I have been to every home match this season. You should be here when we play Newcastle, they build a concrete wall (portable) 8 ft high and right around the north stand !, talking about hating each other ! no one dare where a black and white shirt any where in sunderland.
everton away support amazes me, ffc are crap, one of the worse in the prem. if cfc did sell out that's very impressive, I did not think there away support was as good as that, take my hat off to them,
Nice one lads. Big trip for a week night and this time of year. Safe journey lads. Stadium Of Light please log in to view this image Sat Nav SR5 1SU
We've sold out every home and away game this season... And we've had some right ****ters! United away - Monday night - Sold Out Newcastle away - Saturday lunchtime - Sold Out Everton away - late Saturday no trains back - Sold Out Sunderland away twice midweek - Sold Out Swindon Sold Out midweekwith a bigger allocation after police allowed. Our away support is definitely up there with United's and Liverpool's... Then I'd probably say Everton tbh followed by Arsenal. Although Arsenal sell out they're end is full of divs... Replica shirts all over the shot... Santas hats and all that... Have about 5 songs sung over and over again...
Nice one. The Spurs game was a Saturday afternoon too, not a night game like ours. Good idea building a wall round those animals. Toon army is a myth: they only ever take half their allocation. At the heat of Keeganmania they only brought 1500 down for a live cup tie in the 90s. You brought shedloads down in 85 for the Milk cup semi night game, 7/8k reckon, more than their 'army' ever managed! Good luck with Gus
Our away support was fanastic, mid 70s-late 80s, but seems stronger than ever now. I'd say it is at our strongest ever. Even in the mid 80s, we would have struggled to take 3k to a league game midweek at Sunderland and the same two weeks later just before Xams too (although we did take 8k for a milk cup semi). Everton good, but never option their full allocation at Chelsea, apart from one league cup semi
They did last season tbf... Southampton away now also sold out for New Years Day... Hull away nearly sold out..
Superb, Bucks. It would have been the exception last year for Everton. Palace fans superb on Saturday, sold out Gates 1-4, when many other LOndon clubs, including Spurs and Fulham have not
yeah but as that weren't given he thinks that the ball has to hit the back of the net to count as a goal
Most are just getting back now.... 6.30am... Derby away tickets go on sale at 7am! Hats off to all that went...
You may have taken your allocation but there's no way you sold it out. Unlucky by the way as think we were poor.
