People still seriously deluded about citys away support I see -
A few notes about last season away (this may repeat some earlier comments)
First game last season, Villa, 75 miles away, we sent 100 tickets back
1670 to Sunderland, V poor indeed
4000 to Wigan as above
1200 to Newcastle and Wigan - granted both midweek but shocking
2200 to bolton - less said the better and dont give me any bullshit about ticket prices
WBA - 1300 !!!!
West Ham - sold out reduced allocation
Spurs - sold out very reduced allocation
The answer to the post is we should get 3000 at Blackburn because that is all we will take, i dont care if it is the first game of the season.
We need to face facts that we by no means have the away support of even 5 years ago, I would estimate 60%.
I am not having a go, or trying to sensationalise a post these are just facts.
