Reesh Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Sold out their allocation, originally given 2.6k then got a further 800. Should we have restricted their numbers like they do to us? And apparently if we play there next season the away section is getting moved to the corner much like Boro and Derby do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylluan Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Yes. Don't know how vocal their away support is but that's another 800 voices behind their team when the game possibly defines both club's season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't get 4 points from today and Norwich at S6 I'm not sure it'll matter. Worry about these first. Shouldn't be getting out sung by a couple of thousand stoke fans anyway really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheExile Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Stoke have a bit of a rep away from home. Suspect they’d be noisy at 2,600 so whether giving them over 3k makes much difference in that regard I don’t know. It wouldn’t if it was Wednesday but I think it’s more the psychology of seeing that stand relatively full and not wanting to let them down. Sometimes it brings something from the home crowd too though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheExile Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I went to Stoke for the first game at this level under Sturrock. The police were filming the entire away stand and we got locked in with a few bricks thrown over for good measure. Not the friendliest place based on that experience 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theman Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Stoke is horrible I went in ‘84, 2-1 loss, bloody hatchet man Bould was playing for them, the old Victoria Ground, we battered them, one of only 3 games they won that season, the ye-ye-ye-lllllllllll-ooo-ooo-www-sssss chant was born 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
