Stockport County

[schfc6]

Erm……& all of our fans

Ha! Yeh, I did forget that, but I am a City fan from Stockport I suppose!

 

[eyalluvitt]

Lots of city fans still go to county. The city, United fans you mention above are pretty much all from Stockport so I think it’s a good thing they are giving their local club some support. I don’t see how that’s a problem?

They’ve always had a very good core support as well.

Borough of Stockport has a huge amount of match-going fans, County, City and even the Rags, who are bigger in Greater Manchester's best borough than they care to admit when they sing Stockport nursery rhymes at us.

I go to County whenever it doesn’t clash with City.
Initially it was hoof and run, they were a bit like a pub side.
Now with a new Chairman and Manager it’s a lot more ball to feet.
They are the Bookies favourite to win the league in 2022/2023

Not started well 0:3 after 35 mins v Barrow at home

County favorites for promotion Barrow for relegation

Went to County yesterday, was interested to see what Edgeley is like these days, after many years.

It was quite fun, the crowd were quite noisy and passionate, some good banners and chants. Tonnes of moaning at half time, not much has changed there. Decent pint. County set up terribly for some reason playing a weird version of 5 at the back and Barrow just picked them off. Second half county very dominant and really very unfortunate not to get a pen at the end, in fact they did get one in injury time only for the linesman to overrule it! Decent day out, shot themselves in the foot with a terrible first half, otherwise much the better side.

Hope they lose every game they play.

Hehe,

Lots of people talking them up for promotion but the crucial thing after any promotion is survival.

Countys attendances over the years has been awful , circa 2000 during the 80s , and that was with Friday Night is County night and the crowd boosted by mostly city and a few united

When they were on the verge of going out of business i saw stickers and posters all round cheadle saying along the lines of SUPPORT
YOUR LOCAL CLUB. IF COUNTY CAN GET 5000 PER MATCH WE CAN STAY IN BUSINESS. They got no where near that

 

[m7mcfc]

Stockport and all who stand for them are cunts. Same as Oldham they fucking hate us. I don't understand the love in. I hate them with a passion. My dad played for them in the 60's still cnuts.

The 80s was 40 years ago now. Right now and over the last few years they are getting very good crowds, considering they were in non league. Bigger then lots of league clubs

I don’t see how you can criticise their attendances considering they were on the brink of disappearing and the level they are at. A conference/ league 2 club getting more support is great.

Im not criticising, they just dont have a good core support, as you said

I think its amazing they are getting 10k now , really good.

Will soon tail off when they are lingering around the bottom half.

Theyll lose half the reds that are now county fans as they ‘have fallen out of love with prem football and enjoying lower leagues’ …… translated;

“I chose united because they won everything, when they went a but shit i jumped on the fc united bandwagon, but they are also shit now. County seem to be doing ok now so i’ll have a bit of that. Unless of course they struggle, in which case ill jump ship again. Maybe macc town if theyre still doing well. I am basically only interested in a team if they win things. Im
Not prepared to back a losing team. Oh and the womens team were fuckin brilliant. Go lionesses!!!”

I know a fair few who have done this, which is laughable as they never went before.

Also, the ones who claim they are county but are off watching Premier league teams all of a sudden have gone back to watching county towards the end of last season.

Glory hunters.

Did we? I was there were you.? 20 k OK maybe people did not have disposable money at the time. I don't go anymore it's to expensive. Where wre you when you were shit the opposition sing. Probably at the match but yes I don't go anymore. It does not make me less of a City fan.
It's hard man. Men have family's and need to put bread on the table. To take my two boys and myself costs about £200. It is an expensive day out.
