Might our antics at Stevenage and Northampton be a factor in this?
Possibly but Crawley are pretty hard up for money so theres a chance they could sell out 1,600 vs just 750 so would double their income from the fixture and probably lose them circa £10k in ticket sales if we are not given the full amount.
The highest away following at Crawley so far this season have been.
572 Sutton
556 Rovers
443 Tranmere
357 Exeter
So already we have far exceeded those figures and could possibly get close to doubling/tripling the previous highest if allocated more tickets.
Their home average attendance is 2,100 this season so we could if given the full away allocation match the number of home supporters.
