Thinking that Orient being top of the league and all of that and expecting a bumper away following for Tuesday looked to see how many fans they took to Tranmere a whopping 339? for a main Saturday game gate pretty poor showing and would have thought even less for a midweek game coming up

Well I've just checked in my 'Timmy's Projections and Promises Manual' and on page 4 it says we can expect somewhere around 7,000 for a big game, so those orient fans better get their tickets pretty smartish before they all sell out.

I'd have thought if it was a comparable time they'd bring more to Northampton than Tranmere purely because of distance.

Orient's away following has been around 3-400 for distant games and up to 1k for closer/biggers games. Their average as of a couple of weeks ago was about 800 and that's skewed by the 1600 they took to Colchester.

I'd expect no more than 5-600.

(Yes I'm bored. Nice to see a couple of fans on their board saying they're refusing to go because they won't support bad owners)

Slightly off thread, but just watched football league show and was watching the rain lash down on a lot of the pitches. Sixfields - sun shining and the pitch looked like a carpet. Although I'm against the place, at least the game shouldn't be ruined by Saturday's game (although the forecast isn't great). I'm told Orient are bringing 573 ;)

Well to be fair there not a very big supported team have took the division by storm and a bit of a shock.

To be fair bit early yet Tranmere did the same last season look at them now?

Thing is how many will we have cold rainy midweek clash never that good even in Cov.

lucky to get 1500

Spot on, I think people forget they are a small team with small support. Why do you think their chairman has gone nuts over the West ham move as it will kill their club and take their floating fans.

I rather like SIR ERNIE's comments, Ernie and myself see eye to eye. So stop being a dictator.

How was I being a dictator? They were nothing to do with the thread, even letsallsingtogether posted on topic without a rant.

If you like what he says then feel free to use pms.

I think this will be a very low crowd, midweek game, orient not having a large away support & weather turning colder/wetter. I predict 1750 (600 away fans)

Nick's a moderator...he is allowed to post his view on things.

Personally, I think this continually turning every thread into the same old argument(s) IS boring, & ruins some otherwise good threads.

I work in Northampton, tempted to pop along to the hill watch 20 mins or so then leave and listen to the match on CWR on my way home and then listen to the game whilst noshing my dinner. Trouble is I will probably get some abuse from the insiders as well as the hillers.

You won't get any abuse. I reckon there will be 30 at most on the hill.

I believe they have the same prices as us. Still won't be many from there. An Orient friend is refusing to go although he would love to see if their unbeaten run continues. As he says if he wants to go to Sixfields he will when the local team is playing there.

I will be on the hill to watch the game. No protest, no abuse just want to watch the game but will never go inside.

Will there still be people on the hill for a night game?

EDIT: Sorry Steve, didn't see your post.
