    Well twist the figures to suit your own standpoint

    I thought we sold abart 8k for newcastle and that again was limited "on police advice" as far as I am aware.

    RE: not true

    Thank you sir........ and for what it's worth these are my own persoanl re-quaintances of such followings:

    80/81:
    Rotherham (FA Cup) 9,000 sold out in 48 hours
    Huddersfield Got to be about 9,000 minimum
    Middlesbrough 13,000
    Enfield (FA Cup Replay) 7,500 (official) and there were only 2/3 days to make arrangements to get down there (When the FA Cup was great and not run by Sky/Man Utd/ Police)
    Sheff Utd 8,000ish
    81/82:
    Rotherham 9,000
    Sheff Wed 9/10,000
    Liverpool (League Cup) 17,000
    82/83:
    Rotherham 7,000


    Plus such numbers as 1,000 to Chelsea in 81/82, and it was a very shitty place to visit back in those days!!!! Blah! Blah! Blah!

    I waserely pointing out that we had a bloody good following back in those days and the Chelsea bit was a bit of a ad-hoc thing . Can you not see that?

    I know that, I was going every week .......

    .... we had a great following everywhere in 1979/80 .... until we played Millwall away and 1000 **** themselves and stayed at home whilst about 100 of us took our lives in our hands and braved the old Den.

    You can't tell me about away followings mate, I've seen 'em all

    RE: I know that, I was going every week .......

    And so have i mate.... 600 at Reading (ok we lost 7-0) and then 70 to Millwall (one coach and a minibus). The following year a few more decided to brave it........... and our bloody coach got toppled in that car park and we had to wait for a new one to arrive - curtains drawn on the way out etc. I seem to recall a certain chap from Cudworth throwing stink bombs, plus providing them to fellow supporters, in the away pen that day.

    How did you know they were Chelsea fans? Did they have "You have just been bricked by Chelsea" on the bricks? maybe an early intro into the fad of the so-called calling card mullarky??
