The most Notts have given us in the last 10 years is about 2.5k which we sold. Bradford was 2.5k. Our first away game back in the league at Chesterfield was 2.7k sold out. Alfreton wae about 2.5k. Only one 3k+ following was Donny.

By the time Humberside police have “liaised” with their colleagues in West Yorkshire” the kickoff time will be 11 am with an away allocation of 1000 max.

Wasn’t Chesterfield the Dembele game under Slade? Chesterfield had come down from League One with an expensively assembled team (including Kristian Dennis) and after beating them 3-1 on their own patch I remember thinking “fúcking hell, we’re gonna do well this season”. Don’t judge a book by its first page, I suppose.

Ha ha yes I thought that too, what a game with Dembele unplayable! Now we have so many players that are unplayable and we are the real deal! Still pinching myself daily! UTM!!

Yes of course it was mate. I knew it was the first away game of a season. How could I forget Dembele was a Slade masterstroke and was on fire that day. I can't remember anything about the season in League 1 we must have had.

Halifax was one of many mad away days of that era. Remember a fair few just climbing over the turnstile to get in so I suspect it may well of had a modernisation since. The burger van incident and a walk back into the Town centre with a police car steaming past with a traffic cone hanging out the back window if I remember right.

Biggest away league following in the last 50 years was surely Hull - 2-2 draw in 1980 (7k claimed in the programme for the next home game) or Donny in 72, lost 2-1, was too young for that (Dad didn't do away games), but remember the cars blocking the A18 ouside our house in Wrawby. A few other 4/5k followings in the league that 79/80 season - Chesterfield, Rotherham and Mansfield and then an impressive 3k at Reading (the special flights from Kirmington game).
Biggest away league following that never was - Sheffield Wednesday the following season, postponed on the Saturday morning - two special trains sold out and the police put a sign on the motorway at Barnetby to warn people game was off apparently - we didn't see it - were still in the pub in Brigg and just getting ready to set off and the shopkeeper from next door came in and told us - didn't believe her at first...

We’d take huge followings to S Yorkshire back then.
