The worst fans I ever saw at HR were Leeds.
I don't understand how the likes of Leeds are allowed 6000 to come to us, but wont let Millwall even bring over 3000... Is it because we cant afford the police anymore? Either way its one game I am looking forward too!
They have one of the lowest away averages in the league. If they've sold 1900 anyway are really that many more gonna travel? There biggest away following since Xmas was only 1700 and that was a derby match against Colchester. Took only 1200 to Swindon a few weeks back and only 700 to Walsall.
They can only get tickets if they are signed up members and registered to do so. They also get a restricted number of tickets due to the police. Their support in general is a lot better than ours
Agree on that one, it was manic all night. Before, during & after.The worst fans I ever saw at HR were Leeds.
How can their support be better than ours? If they have sold 1900 to members for our game then why did they only sell 1200 at Swindon and 700 at Walsall. We have the highest average away attendance in the league, they are 15th.

This data is inaccurate.
No way are Gillingham third and Sheffield Utd are top.....with Bradford much higher.
Odd stats.
I think those figures don't show away followings, only the average gate when the team is away.

Not sure how youve worked Colchester out as being a derby for them?
Thank you breadbin, pretty sure there will be a big OB presence everywhere, we always have the Met police that travel with us to every away game.
Plenty of overtime for them!!!
Have a good day,I'm up for this one.
Went to the Den in August lovely weather and a great session in London.
Can't see the same result somehow !!
The club are advising Millwall supporter's not to travel to the ricoh without a match day ticket.Are the club really expecting them to not turn up to watch there team cement a play off place.
I hope not, you played us off the pitch, we couldn't handle Armstrong. We were all thinking that we needed a proper manager like Mowbray, at the time Neil Harris was struggling with how he wanted us to play and rookie mistakes as we are his first managerial job.
Not too surprised that we have turned the corner but amazed the way you have fallen apart. One of the best teams at The Den this season
It's on the police advice that a couple of hundred Millwall fans will end up in the home end instead.
Don't other clubs do it in situations like this?Imagine going into a shop to buy milk and they tell you "sorry, I can't sell you milk as you've never bought it here before". Or "sorry, but we've sold enough bottles already". An insane way to run a business.

Most clubs would make "high risk" [sic] matches all-ticket, and not fanny around with mixed messages like ticket-only for singers' corner, with most people knowing full well there is nothing to stop you moving wherever you want.Don't other clubs do it in situations like this?
West Mids now saying any Wall who travel without tickets will be asked to leave Coventry, surely its a free country and that would be classed as discrimination?
I doubt it. There are a lot of special public order controls connected to the Football (Offences) Act 1991. Attempting to access the wrong area of the ground is one such arrestable offence, so I don't know why there are anecdotal reports of Millwall fans having bought home tickets at the Ricoh then asking to be moved to the away end.
Alot are saying that is exactly what they will do, ask to be moved to the away end if found to be in the home section.
Their fans group has highlighted all the legal requirements online for fans to view and print off, also adding football solicitors for any who may require one for one reason or another should they be arrested within Coventry.
Nice to see they are prepared.
I look for a nice pub, somewhere to eat.
Yes that would be nice, but we will be met by riot cops as soon as we get off the train, have a camera shoved in your face, pushed around and told where you can and can't go. Strangely plod seem a bit surprised when people get pissed off and it kicks off!
Notts police have it right, whenever we play Forest away, it's all low key, they let you know they are about, but from a distance - not right in your face. Fairly friendly and hey presto there's no trouble at all, before or after. Not that difficult. Unfortunatley most OB actually want it to kick off, as per your fan that has finally won his case against them.
Imaging if the police treated muslims or any other group of people the way they treat football fans.
Strangely never had that issue for no reason.
If I wasn't doing anything wrong, I wouldn't have solicitors on speed dial.
Good point. Says it all really.If I wasn't doing anything wrong, I wouldn't have solicitors on speed dial.
