League 2 average away followings

[Peter Venkman]

For those that are interested in these sort of things here are the average league following in L2 this season so far after around 6 away games played for each side.

871​ Bradford City
849​ Swindon Town
827​ Tranmere Rovers
709​ Oldham Athletic
689​ Bristol Rovers
683​ Hartlepool United
580​ Mansfield Town
575​ Port Vale
541​ Walsall
475​ Rochdale
401​ Northampton Town
387​ Carlisle United
378​ Leyton Orient
360​ Barrow
330​ Exeter City
270​ Scunthorpe United
261​ Sutton United
253​ Newport County
193​ Colchester United
170​ Stevenage
156​ Salford City
149​ Forest Green Rovers
134​ Crawley Town
116​ Harrogate Town

Obviously if it wasnt for a few idiots at Stevenage we would have had the highest average in the division mostly because our away allocation at Rovers was cut to half its normal level and we had a fair few more in the home stads at Sutton from what I hear so the figures are a little skewed.

Still a great showing by Town fans though so far.

I would imagine the top 3 mirrors the home attendance table...

I dont have stats for that at the moment but it does appear that way pretty much.

It must be the first time ever at this stage of the season that the top 2 teams in the table are in the bottom 3 for away fans attendances.

Barrow>Exeter 

It is quite funny until you see the games they have played.

Barrow have played at Port Vale(130 miles), Bradford(90 miles) and Oldham(100 miles) so far are not too bad a trip from Barra.

Exeter so far have played at Crawley(185 miles), Harrogate(300 miles), Scunthorpe(285 miles), Stevenage(198 miles), Hartlepool(350 miles) and Barrow(333 miles)!

I'd go with Horlocks. I can confirm our 8806 is correct.

[Formerly Drummer Boy]

We'd have a fair few more away if our away tickets were not getting capped and limited due to the fall out from Stevenage!
