Our away attendance has gone down since 2010/11 season, found that a bit strange. Guess it is to with all the Northern games this season

Lots of other attendance related stuff here

7th in the league for away fans. Not bad considering most of last season's matches were long journeys and we're all supposed to be plastic.

There is a correlation with the move to The Amex (buying a season ticket instead of going to more away games when we were at Withdean) and fans reining in their spending budget in times of austerity. The date of fixtures also affects the figures season by season with those long journeys up north on a Tuesday or train cancellations. It will be interesting to see if our away average increases this season as the league has a Southern bias.
