Away support at the Amex so far

[Simster]

Donny:
Numbers 6/10 - might have expected a few more, despite the obvious teething problems
Noise 6.5/10 - got behind their team but no great shakes
Friendliness - 8/10 - no real problems that I could see. A couple of Albion twats in the train queue after the game were winding them up in a way they wouldn't have done to say, Millwall supporters, but they were fairly restrained.

20.5/30

Gillingham
I didn't go.

Blackpool:
Numbers 7/10 - probably 1,600 or so. Not bad for a side Blackpool's size
Noise 8/10 - quite impressive to be honest
Friendliness - 8/10 - again, mostly sound. Just a couple of twats on one of their sunshine buses getting all gobby outside the ground but to be fair they had just mugged us of two points.

23/30

Blackpool fans were quality, quite a few of them were having a drink in the North Stand concourse after the game, mixing and chatting with the homes fans. T'was really nice.

Gillingham
Numbers 6/10 - Midweek game so tough to criticise but not huge numbers
Noise 7/10 - Not bad considering the game
Friendliness - 7/10 - Good really. Had a nice chat with a bloke on the P&R.

The friendliness award definately goes to Blackpool though.

 

[Mr deez]

BUT a blackpool fan did dare to invade the hallowed turf.

Gillingham: Most bizarre chant - 10/10

Group of Gillingham fans in the queue for the train singing: "We'd rather be at Priestfield with our willies hanging out, we'd rather be at Priestfield with our willies hanging out, we'd rather be at Priestfield, rather be at Priestfield, rather be at Priestfield with our willies hanging out."

 

[Simster]

So how did Sunderland's fans measure up then?

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Who'll be the first club to sell out the away end? Palace? Very poor show if they don't ...

Sunderland
Numbers 8/10 - Great turnout for a tin pot cup and logistics
Noise 6/10 - some will say more, they got going more than the rest but i think my seat in WSU just doesnt hear that end well.
Friendliness 7/10 - No problems, had a laugh with group of lads post match but that was it

Leeds probably. Although now Friday night and on telly, maybe not.

 

[foul old ron]

I thought Sunderland fans were very disappointing. Mind you, they didn't have much to cheer about did they?

 

[Honey Monster]

Leeds will fill the away end. They've got the best away following in this division.

 

[Gritt23]

Have we stopped getting that poster telling us the away fans have slashed all the seats after every game?

Ironic that he seems to have gone with Palace and Leeds on the horizon, when his little stories may actually have some truth in them.

Isn't this from Arsenal's chant "running round tottenham with our willies hanging out"
.... "singing I've got a foreskin haven't you?"

etc

Can't quite see the Gillingham relevance .

 

[Taybha]

i honestly didn't notice the sunderland fans at all (noise wise) and the ones i did try to chat to may as well have been peruvian , did not understand a bloody word of it.

think this sums it up well for me anyway
