How the hell did we come below Colchester (just)? The away experience there is awful. Surely the CG isn't that bad?

No idea what ColU charge, as haven't been to the new ground....but I'd imagine the reason for away fans not enjoying the CG is down to cost.

How much is a ticket at Colchester? Our ridiculous ticket prices are always going to see us towards the bottom of these things. I see Oxford did equally as badly down in League 2.

Don't think their cost is too high, but it is a 3 sided shit hole stuck away in the middle of nowhere, difficult to get to and no traditional facilities...surprised it's so high.

Perhaps coz clubs can take a good size away following there, or.there's plenty of leg room? Peterborough away is a good trip, but they are low in this survey, especially when the terrace was there. Good local parking, boat bars etc.

I think my list would be pretty much the exact opposite for each league...

Surely they can only be above us due to there being standing and with easy links to London, otherwise its a fucking shithole of a ground.

So basically more and more fans want to sit in a comfortable seat, plenty of leg room, facilities with edible food, etc
More and more of the old traditional shithole grounds are disappearing and I hate that aspect of modern football.
I blame the sky sports generation.

Crawley's a shite away day. Travel's shit, ground's shit, refreshments shit ( by which I don't mean the prawn sandwiches don't have the crusts cut off, I mean the tea is like drinking warm water with shit in it) , place is shit, pitch is shit and you can't hear the opposing fans for the fucking planes taking off and landing at cocking gatwick.
Shit.

My brother supports Newcastle and I went to Cardiff away.
It's essentially a case of them selling booze that is local to the away team and a thank you poster.
A part of the fun of being in an away end is that you're a bit of a afterthought, the enemy.

Most on the lists at the top are relatively new grounds. When I went to st Marys (when Austin scored), yes it was a nice stadium, but I'm not a fan of bowl grounds, the only saints fans you could hear were on the right. The dell was good. Why are reading high up on that list?

Isn't it still compulsory to get a shoeing at Cardiff and Swansea or have they now left behind the 70s time warp they have existed in.
