    Pay-on-the-day - a very definite sign of the fans' apathy at the minute. Can't remember the last time this fixture wasn't an away sell out.

    Yes, sums things up right now. Can’t even shift 2k for Blackpool in October. Even our away support is on the wane.

    Last season we were playing ***** under Collins ok it was the last away day of the season but it only just made general sale and loads were after tickets. It turned abit sour if I remember right and Collins got some abuse.

    Poor sign of the times when we cannot sell put Blackpool any time of the year, especially illuminations season.

    We took 3.5k there for a 3rd round cup game under Hecky in January 2017. Sold out every time I'm the league there since then to my knowledge. Really is saying a lot about the feeling around the club when we can't sell 2.3k or whatever it is this time around.

    The state of the economy might be playing a part also

    2.1k we got. No final numbers given but I bet we’ve not shifted many more than 1-5k

    £30 a ticket might explain not selling out, as well as playing *****

    Our numbers were poor at Huddersfield, relegation season.
    What's the lowest anyone has seen away with the Reds?

    Not sure what mine is.

    I always think of the picture of the 80 odd stuck down by a corner flag on a league cup night game at Swansea City.

    Not sure of mine either. But I can recall the supporter's coach being cancelled on the day when we were at Torquay. Five blokes eventually made it in a car

    Southend away one year, towards the arse end of the season, I think. Neither club going anywhere. Can't have been more than about 30 of us. It was local-ish for me, but I certainly wouldn't have made the trip down for it.

    Famous five went to Torquay in the 77/78 season.
    We're there any other Reds fans went down for the 78/79 one? I heard there was a coach from Royston Legion?
