Very impressive If they do.
Indeed, though MK Donkeys benefit from (a ) being in a very central location on England; (b ) being able to accommodate every other club's travelling support, regardless how big; and (c ) having a relatively new stadium, so still new to a number of travelling fans.

All three apply to assist Wolves in taking a huge away support.

Really interesting info. Thanks Ealing Bee. I have always thought we had very good away support and wondered what it is as a percentage of home gate. I thought we might have been higher. Disappointed that the Os are higher than us. Still very good given league is slightly more Northern than Southern.

My thoughts exactly. Our average will increase as after Rotherham we will be taking over 1k to Sheffield and col u and kin loads to mongs on Easter Monday.
 

Average away attendances

given league is slightly more Northern than Southern

North: Rotherham, Preston, Port Vale, Sheffield Utd, Bradford, Oldham, Crewe, Tranmere, Carlisle (9)
South: Brentford, Orient, Peterborough, MK Dons, Swindon, Crawley, Gillingham, Bristol City, Colchester, Stevenage (10)
Bit in the middle with funny accent: Wolves, Walsall, Coventry, Shrewsbury, Notts County (5)

And I'd argue playing at Sixfields puts Coventry in the south.
 

Average away attendances

I'd put Peterborough in the middle and notts co in the north

On the face of it, it looks impressive. But when you consider the size* (and wealth) of Bristol, and the dearth of big clubs competing nearby, maybe it's not that good? And their travelling support expressed as a percentage of their home support (see my post #8, above) is actually pretty pathetic - 2nd worst in the entire Division.

As it happens, I was far more impressed with Bristol Rovers - 17th in League Two - drawing over 6k for their home game against Southend last Friday night: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26572805

The MK Dons home fans numbers are definitel fake - no idea how they do it but we had more fans than they did last away game yet was announced a 10k game or so

I wonder how our away figures stack up against Fulham's. Well, I imagine.

They have about 5000 season ticket holders - many, many of whom don't turn up regularly. These are counted in their attendance figures just as our ST holders are at GP.

Horrible, terrible club in every respect.

I am gradually building up to making it into the "92 Club" (about 80 so far), and the Donkeys will definitely be the last on my list.

That's if I don't just decide to start up my own "91 Club"

MK Dons set a new record attendance of 20,516 today, with 8,943 away supporters.

..............another good away support tonight.............

The average should be pushed up considerable with these last three away games being both relatively close geographically and the importance.

Should see at least 2,000 travelling Bees fans at all of them.
 

Average away attendances

We are averaging 858 away fans from 20 away games at a total of 17177 so we need another 5823 from 3 games to top the 1k away attendance for the season.

With Swindon we should get 2k.

Mk Dons at least 3k depending if we need to win to gain promotion or not.

Colchester 2965, we should easily top the 1k mark. :pop

Read somewhere that Crawley took 29 to Vale Park last night. Sounds like b***ocks too me. Anybody confirm.

There was a picture on Twitter of the away end at Port Vale last night,

Looked less than that.

It would be interesting to hear how many we have sold for Swindon, MK Dons and Colchester already.

Colchester was at 800 yesterday.

I would imagine that the ticket office will be very busy on Saturday.

Finished the season with an average of 1,078 away from home. Must be our best for quite a while.

Has anyone worked out the final table for Travelling Fans as a Percentage of Home Attendances (home fans only)?

I suspect Bees figure reasonably highly by that measure, whereas teams like MK Donkeys and Bristol C are particularly weak.

I believe we are 2nd in league one (Orient top) with about 15%.

Higher than 10 championship teams, including Watford, Charlton, Millwall and Reading. Oh and Wigan :wave:

Considering the size of Watford and Reading (towns), their relative affluence, and convenient geographical location, those two clubs' away following is particularly poor.

Whereas when we go to their grounds next season, we will take the place over. Is Ken near retirement age?
