Oh no just wondering what their fan's reaction's were, probably similar I'd assume, were they table toppers, doesn't mean we're going to go the same way that's all.

I think it's took a real sharp decline.

We haven't had anything like the Blackpool game 2021. Non-stop noise for 90 minutes.

Demographics/type of fan have changed in the away end

No, I mean the point about playing in front of no fans? We won the league in 2019/20 when games were played in front of fans.

I’m on about when we played in front of no fans, didn’t effect us, we all want it to be brilliant every week, its only been a bit flat today and the first half against Blackburn, TBH who cares

When I see comments like that, it smacks of rose tinted glasses.

You see the same faces at most away days so struggle to believe the support has changed materially, imo.

Fair enough. If you think our away support compares to what it was in 2021-23 I'm shocked. Barely a moments silence at away games around that time.

Must have been 10 renditions of PUSB in the first 20 minutes on Tuesday!

People like this guy and Cam are unable to see the bigger picture. We just played three games in a week with a small squad. This included a right trek to the south coast. We came away with 9 points from the games despite not playing at full tilt. The atmosphere away has been superb. Honestly there’s no pleasing some people

Of course, because we used to average around 1000-1500 during the League 1 days. Those lot still go, but there's now 1000+ extra.

The away support seems a lot more family friendly to me. Plenty of people will be glad of that.

We are but it's nowhere near as good as it was.

We're taking bigger numbers now though.

Wednesday was the best this season.

I sat in the bottom tier at Millwall and is was very quiet around us. Acoustics not great but a lot of people more interested in checking Instagram. You can't hear the top tier from the bottom.

At least Leicester took winning the premier league and playing in the champions league before becoming entitled pussies.

People moaning because we won our sixth game on the bounce in a manner they didn’t like are pathetic.

This place is mental at times.

3 games in a week. 3 wins. The game was over by HT. We played a side with lots of pace. We were missing 2 of our best players yet were never in trouble for the whole game. Yes Rushworth made some good saves but that's what he is there for. We're not so good that our opponents won't get chances.

We could easily have scored 4 or 5 yet some are looking for things to moan about. If we were losing the 2nd half display would have been poor. But it was Watford chasing the game. We rested players again.

We're 3 points and 17 goals ahead of 2nd, 5 points and 24 goals ahead of 3rd and have 50% more points than Charlton in 6th. Yes it's been fantastic so far but it doesn't give us the right to control every game for 90 minutes.

Thing that stands out for me was, that neither Wright or Mason-Clark had great games, but we still won and scored 3 goals.

That's my kind of team!!

Usually, if two of your forward players aren't having good games, you don't win.

Let some wallow. I am well chuffed with yesterday.

I like that lampard pretty much said the fans should stop taking it for granted

Some of the posts on here have been pathetic. Even my famous cousin came home talked about how the second half was shit rather than focus on the win and being 3 up by half time

I have said if in previous season and it's still true. If you spend a successful season moaning just to celebrate at the end you really fucked up. Enjoy it now

I’ve only made it to two games this season, yesterday and QPR. Sod’s Law this is the season we can’t go often but for those who can and take winning games for granted…they can’t have been CCFC fans all that long.

100% we’ve waited decades for this. I honestly can’t understand how people can find ANYTHING to moan about.

We’re clear top, scoring buckets, haven’t lost, I’m loving every second of this season.

Came on here to share the excitement / enjoyment and everyone’s arguing with each other, a thread moaning that the club put on a singer post match etc its bonkers.

These are the good times, enjoy it PUSB

They were dangerous on the break yesterday and their pace will hurt some teams this year, along with their no.10 who I thought was class, and am sure Frank was having a good chat with him at full time. We didn’t defend brilliantly yesterday but Frank and his staff will watch the game on playback to analyse it and every game we learn something new as teams set up differently.
Enjoy the ride, enjoy every game, enjoy the fantastic set up and long live £3.60

People going on like we chose to let them have control of the second half. Nope, no sky blue tinted goggles here is there?…

I suppose Lampard was going mad on the touchline because he was happy with how it was going?
