Annoyingly it is. Don't know how many players we'll (or they'll) have going away - I think it's three or more for the game to be postponed.

Annoyingly it is. Don't know how many players we'll (or they'll) have going away - I think it's three or more for the game to be postponed.


Likely Bindon NZ, Savage Wales U21 and Elliot, Cameroon, I'm sure we had one or two others in the autumn too, Camera if fit.

I know we had Abbey away previously, but he's obviously left. I think Dorsett has been off with Montserrat, but I don't know if they've got a game.

Almost 1300 of us at Bolton. 1,299 to be exact.

£10 tickets helped but that's a good effort. Sums up a good season of away support from us. Hopefully we can continue to see good backings on the road next season. Probably be more if it wasn't for some of the tinpot away ends like Oxford, Bristol Rovers, Wycombe and Leyton Orient

Very impressive numbers.

I make it our seventh highest away following so far this season - behind Charlton (2,518); Portsmouth (1,987); Wycombe (1,849); Cheltenham (1,516); Oxford (1,475) and Carlisle (1,360). Bristol Rovers (1,348 allocation) will almost certainly creep ahead.

Was thinking this yesterday. How good would our average be if we weren't limited at any ground? For Bolton's closest game (Wigan), they have the ability to take over 4,000 (and vice versa) - we're limited to roughly 1,500 and 1,800 respectively.

We probably would've sold at least double for Oxford (3,000+) had we been given that allocation, as the obvious example. Other estimates (read 'guesses') would be - when trying to be conservative: Wycombe (and maybe Portsmouth) over 2,500; Cheltenham and Bristol Rovers would've over 2,000; Exeter and Leyton Orient spring to mind as being over 1,500. Those games would've increase our average so far by over 200 people.

Hopefully it continues next season and will be hopefully be assisted by us competing for the play-offs (or higher) next season. Our best bet for an 'unlimited' away following (locally) next season will be if Milton Keynes get promoted - we took around 3,000 there in 2016(?) when our average away following was pretty awful. I reckon we could take over 4,000 there next season, assuming we get the tickets to do it.
