Hull City Away

[ancientblade]

Unfortunatley or fortunately whichever way you look at it ( i always worked away so only ever had 4 ST at lane in my life ) but because our travelling support for some strange reason hasn’t been that big over the years I’ve 95% of time managed to get away tickets 1 way or other . I’ve been to oakwell when we’ve only took 1500. I’ve been to donny with less than a thousand die hard blades. For me now is the time to get behind em and get Hull sold out not get behind em cos we are at old Trafford or Emirates. They need us now!! Stand up and be counted ffs. UTB FTP

its strange really wednesday fans do seem to travel in bigger numbers than us whatever the exspense think they would have sold out in a couple of days for hull if they were in our position just think united fans are a bit more conservative when it comes to parting with money

A lot of Wednessday's away followings have been counted using pigonomics and PI(g), vastly inflating the true figures. Tis a well known fact mi old

wasnt bigging em up but dont think their inflating the figures they are selling out but so did we every game in the pub league when we were at the top of the league plus playing away in league 1 is probably 50% cheaper for tickets than what they have to pay at the swill

Pig fans have got nothing else going on in there lives.No friends no family, no job, no prospects. Wednesday is all they have.

 

[S64 Blade]

Wednesday took 3k to QPR, which surely settles any debate about away support.

And I get the sarcasm when we say this but I wish we wouldn’t because t reminds me how we only took less that a 1000k to millwall for same round of fixtures in same city same weekend. This showed the difference between the away supports and its something of following the blades for all these yrs I’ll never understand it. Btw I was 1 of the 900 or so at millwall that day. Told yas I’m hardcore away

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Crikey - this is in danger of being renamed the 'Wednesday Appreciation' thread!

 

[CrookesBlade]

The away support for both sides is broadly the same, certainly over the last 30 years.

They just make a bigger deal about it than we do with their band, Hawaiian shirts and Tango.

Of all the Wednesday supporters I know, most of them don’t go to the home games, let alone have ever set foot in another ground.

Either way nobody outside South Yorkshire couldn’t give a fuck, their “amazing” support certainly doesn’t register nationally. I don’t read the star and rarely listen to radio Sheffield so other than driving past the ground every so often you wouldn’t even know they exist.

 

[metalblade]

I think one or two on here have fallen for the pigoganda about their support, wait until they lose a few the numbers will melt away as they always do with the grunters.
54 years and counting since they last averaged 30.000.

1000k would be pretty impressive tbf.

[Boxer Blade]

I fuckin hate Wednesday now than I did half an hour ago

“If the we’re in our position” - our position is that up until yesterday, we haven’t looked like we can win an argument for over 12 months.

There were a number of other very well supported away days around that time for us, that definitely affected the QPR following.

 

[PageHallBlade]

It's only better if you haven't been following them for 50yrs or more like some of us.

no its a better system it rewards people who go home and away not like some who i know havent set foot inside the lane for years but accumalte points by loaning out their number.
the way they do it give younger supporters a chance to get on the rung.

just because somone has been for 50 years doesnt make them a bigger blade

The problem is the people that cheat the system, not the system itself.

Unfortunately it's very difficult to stop people manipulating it for their own benefit and changing it to more recent purchases only will have absolutely no effect on that

It’ll be sorted with the digital tickets if they link them to the app rather than email, which they should.

And people without smart phones?

Good point but it can hardly be beyond the wit of man and it would have to be people without any smart device, so tablet, e-reader anything.
I don’t think many people don’t have any usable device, and those that didn’t could buy a cheap one easy enough. We should be ensuring those that have bought them are the ones going in.

 

[SUFC Guy]

Right behind you JB.

I'll be backing you all up
