Went to most aways between 80 - 87, what is your point, if you think we had a great away following in that era, your wrong. In that period the seasons we were in the top level our away support with the odd exception wasn't great, we rarely sold out for London games and you never struggled for a ticket for any away match.
We did have a good following in the lower leagues, but you would expect that with smaller stadia and a more succesful team on the park ie promotions
Very true, nearly all were pay at the gate.
Our away support was very variable in the 80s, some games we'd take thousands, others a few hundred. Also Bradford and Heysel impacted the general level of support post-1985
