Away support has fallen away hasn't it?

Still a top effort though.

 

[RM-Taylor]

Think that's about right position wise, surely we'd be above Brizzle Rovers though

That's what I thought. If we were up the top, we'd have been ahead of Carlisle and Doncaster as well I reckon.

Think the away trips up north on a Tuesday night may have a saying, but our Saturday support normally seems to be a good showing.

 

[Dirty Dave]

so 7th.....maybe it's down to us what position the team finishes? If we can all go to those extra games next season, we wouldn't normally go to, we'll be pushing for the top 6 and play offs

Carlisle 819 5th

strongly related to performance in the league

they have been in the play offs most of the season dont forget

OK LC do you think having more support away is worth a few more points a season then??

If we took more fans away would the team then turn a few more away points by draws into wins etc

 

[house your seagull]

that's not so good.

our away form was pretty shoddy last term so that's a factor.

brizzle seems very high considering they have had an average season, i suppose a play off win gives you extra impetus.

 

[Gazwag]

would be useful if somebody posted the 06/07 comparatives

 

[Blackadder]

brizzle seems very high considering they have had an average season, i suppose a play off win gives you extra impetus.

Could be down to the fact that it was their first season in a higher league. (New Grounds etc)

 

[Uncle Buck]

Bristol Rovers is probably fairly high as there were a number of new grounds for them to do.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

not bad considering there aren't many teams near us

 

[Seagull over NZ]

Bristol Rovers high average could also be because of their cup run - perhaps you got vouchers for the cup games when you went away?? Not sure, but a possibility.

Also Bristol is a pretty easy place to get to other places, easy access to the midlands and quite a few teams nearby (Cheltenham, Swindon, Swansea etc)

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Fair play to carlisle there. Brizzle is pretty central so places are easier to get to.

 

[watsongooal]

Or brizzle could be simply higher as they have a higher fan base than us.

 

[Dirty Dave]

also, wasn't their away record much greater in comparison to their home form? They may have been up there if their home form was up on level with form away from home.
Stating that of the top of my head, so I could be wrong

 

[Napper]

B'mouth - 400...........struggle to believe that
