THE SBA, as usual, turned up in numbers at Southend - but with this incredible position we are in, it would be great to fill the allocation at Rochdale. Tickets left - please get up there if you can, and let's make it like a home game for the players. (in a voice NOT like Delia Smith.

Grrr if so (although players would then be fresh for the Rotherham game, so I'll squeeze that bit of positivity out of it, should that happen!)

I think that's the issue.

I've got mine. There's no chance of going back up there midweek from London if it's called off.

As the number of attendees in my group has dwindled over the years I've attended more and more games on.my own ( At home mainly) and really enjoy it.
I'm fairly happy in my own company so it doesn't bother me.

Same here, have been attending home games alone this season, although did manage to recruit a couple of mates for the Pompey match.

I find when I'm on my own I take the game in much more, no shirt pulling to go to the bar in the 30th minute etc.

Can be a bit awkward when we score and I grab some randomers arm jumping around

When you are a Sky Blue fan going to the game (rather than listening to the radio or watching in ifollow) you are NEVER on your own!
You’ll always have the Sky Blue family with you!!

Considering the thousands we've taken everywhere in all the years of being dogshit, you'd like to think we'd sell most of the 3500 tickets we could get given.

Now that would be very impressive taking 3500 to Rochdale. Worth going just for the chippy opposite the away end. Love there fish and chips.

I go on my own most of the time to be fair! Since I moved away and didn't go for a few years I lost contact with people I used to go with.

There are eleven of us going. Me from Kent, Gary from Didsbury and other northern supporters. Gary and I going to the gin festival, with partners, at noon and then getting possibly same train as an earlier poster from Manchester from Manchester Victoria to Rochdale. Only about 20 minutes but then a fair walk or taxi to the ground. LAST PUSB

Having recently moved to North Yorkshire the number of games I’ll be able to get to will reduce; its 3.5 hours each way on the train to Brum; those games that I can get to up this way will more than likely be on my own.

Be a last minute decision this one for me. I have got a game on the MFL which if the weather is anything to go by will be called off possibly Saturday morning. If that is the case it’s straight in the car to Rochdale, a win win situation.

You're the ref. Go and inspect the pitch today and call it off. What's the use of power if you cant abuse it.

Same here, over the years people dropped out, so I would go to watch us away by myself sometiems, I actually found I would get more engrossed in the game and would always end up chatting to those around me anyway.

I live in Wensleydale and travel to away games in the North. Always happy to share lifts if that helps.

Bought mine and 4 others tickets last week so that’s a few North West Sky Blues that will be at Rochdale.
I always thought the Rochdale away end holds 3k but the club’s article this morning reads like we’ve sold the first allocation of just under a 1k and the next allocation of just under a 1k is on sale... so hoping we will sell this latest batch and get the full 3k.

I think if the 1900 sell out they will give us more or have a pay on the day. It doesn't mention on the article this morning that its a full allocation which normally they put when we can't have any extra tickets. According to the Football Ground Guide the away end holds 3650.
