I heard that LOL

Also apparently Bury are on course for a sub 1500 for a home crowd.

 

[Nick]

There is still time yet

 

[jon92]

They mite nearly beat our home attendance

The others must seen our new managers concerts before

 

[VegetableSamosa]

They can only attract a ~3000 home attendance, so it's not surprising. They're not a well supported team and lack ambition.

 

[philmcc]

i went colchester away...must be the same 15 i saw in the home end that night...

 

[Steve.B50]

In the Scunthorpe programme it gave away attendances and Stevenage too 44 to them and Yeovil on a Saturday 80, how can clubs survive on this sort of support?
I thick we are lucky as a lot of teams try and bring more to us just to see the stadium.

 

[SkyBlueBlood]

Remember playing Newcastle at home in a night game in the 70's and they brought less than 15 and that was in the top flight

So much for the toon army

I'll forever hate them for putting white seats behind their goal. Couldn't see a thing.

 

[Gaz]

Apparently the support up Scotland isn't very good you know ..

 

[Stafford_SkBlue]

Not an easy journey for them but a14 must help. At present their nearest away game must be Orient. We played them (U) on a weekday evening

 

[pusbccfc]

Coventry isn't too far from Colchester considering some of their other away days.

 

[Ashdown1]

Not playing well or challenging for anything, everlasting recession, small support anyway, night game, freezing cold temperatures predicted....................not surprised really, I just hope our apathetic types get their acts together and turn up. Still only expecting 9,000 tops though after way too many poor shows at home !

 

[ajsccfc]

You'd hope a new manager might encourage a few who'd otherwise not bother. It's not the most appealing of games otherwise, freezing Tuesday night and all.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Close the thread, they've sold 17 tickets now...

 

[pusbccfc]

I'd have thought we'd have had more than 10k. A little optimism after saturday, and the new manager etc.

 

[torchomatic]

That's a little unfair. It's a vicious circle really as they have low attendances they probably don't have the money to invest in the team, etc. That means fans don't turn up and so on and so forth.

They can only attract a ~3000 home attendance, so it's not surprising. They're not a well supported team and lack ambition.

I was one of only 16 City supporters once when we played Stoke City at the Victoria Ground in the Full Members' Cup. Mid 80s or so.

 

[NuneatonSkyBlue]

Asked Colchester via twitter earlier and they reckon a couple of hundred will be turning up.

Good for them

Was this the game that ended nil-nil, in the season where we scored for fun in almost every other match??

If it's pay on the gate why not a few hundred Sky Blues fans pack the away end. Be nice to see the Colchester players applaud our very own supporters behind the goal. Should confuse them when they get barracked in response.

They're a non league club who did incredibly well to get to the second tier

Lol that would be funny!!

To be fair, they've been in this league a few seasons. They've had a good playoff push a season or two back, but they're holding their own in this league. I am somewhat biased though.

To be fair to them I would say it is at least double that.

[Jackoskyblue]

Think I counted 54 Colchester fans

 

[sw88]

They werent far off! Fair play to the ones who've travelled

 

[urbanbushmonkey]

173 according to the official.

 

[coundonskyblue]

173 according to the official.

Looked less than 80 to me.

 

[Steve.B50]

We tried to count them, 64 we believe
