Match Buildup MK Dons Away - biggest L1 away crowd of the season?

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

If current form continues I can see us taking 4k there as it's a big away end and not all ticket.

What's this season's league 1 away crowd? Probably Sunderland or Pompey?

Coventry had 6,274 for their game there.

That’s some following

... Especially when you consider, according to this...

League One - average attendance

Attendance table for League One, stadium capacities and average attendance.

... they are averaging less than 6,000 at "home" games.

 

[Marked Ox]

Coventry always seem to take a load to Dongs. It is relatively close and I think a fair number of those who are boycotting the home games at St Andrews still go to away games.

 

[Manorlounger]

The Loungers will be there again. Hopefully not scrapping for oxygen up in the gods again. Stupid stewards insisting that we all sit in our allocated seats while the rest of the stadium was as good as empty. (typical MK home "crowd")

 

[Foley]

With MK in the bottom 4, we could have more supporters than them.

IMO.If it’s close to a sell out, then this has to be done, otherwise chaos reigns.

Oh. Still, i reckon we can take 4k!

 

[Big Ronaldo]

Shell of a ground. Looks nice, but really, really devoid of atmosphere.

Probably will

 

[SteMerritt]

Probably will

According to the link I posted earlier in the thread, they are averaging over 9000... Can't believe that.

Well MK won’t be anywhere near a sell out probably not even a third although the stadium announcer will claim there is a 16/17 k crowd ?

I certainly don’t ?

It's probably the old "count the season ticket holders regardless of whether they turn up or not" trick.

 

[Barbadosyellow]

Might try the London Road coach for this as never taken it before. Anyone know where the Kidlington pick up point is?

But MK used to virtually giveaway STs.
So yes STs included and I suspect that even if hardly anybody turns up a crowd of 7k is announced.

Thanks!

It's become a tradition for us:
1) meatballs at IKEA
2) laughing as people sit down and go "oooh" at the padded seats

Hope that the “oooh” has nothing to do with the recently consumed meatballs.

 

[Wolfman]

Wolves took 10k the season they were in league 1.

 

[Robie]

I don't suppose anyone knows if the tickets are for the top tier yet?.. I don't fancy being stuck in the corner.

 

[BigAlan]

When I went two years ago I purchased a ticket on the gate and was sat in a corner low down. Guess that’s the general area for away supporters.

 

[Essexyellows]

Just another ground where the football club seem like "lodgers". Sterile,out of town meh...
