Gutted was holding off as me and my qualify but my lads only a member at the minute. 4500 thought we’d definitely get him one. Where all these fans come from 

My guess is, reading the above posts, care homes.

[lcfcjosh]

I’m being brutally honest when I say what happened to our away ends and why are they filled with OAPS now ? Every away game we’ve been on I’ve watched matchday vlogs from the home fans and sound poor compared to when other teams goes there.

 

I think cov away will be more for the daytrip as it’s ‘down the road’ bet some people don’t even realise the hatred between us and cov

It’s not all OAPs that don’t sing, some do and try to get involved. We have young fans that just stand there in silence. But we do seem to have so many old fans, never known a club like it

Can we take all the atmosphere bashing back to the appropriate thread please, don’t want to give people heart attacks seeing me join in before xmas

I think the OAP's would definitely realise the hatred between us & Cov.

 

i know, I'm one of them, excuse me, must go, time for my nap.

[RonnieTodger]

I’m looking forward to it, but our end will be tragically shit. 

[Craig]

Looking forward to taking the Honda Jazz for a spin to this one. 

[goody2028]

Can’t lie gutted it didn’t make tomorrow. If anyone has a spare in the next few weeks would love to take it!

Was always going to sell out fast. 30 miles up the road on a saturday and probably the biggest away game of the season. No idea where the confidence came from that it’d drop down the brackets

The first 3 days sold pretty slow, especially day 3. I need to remember for future refence that the 501-520 bracket is obviously huge.

Because the priority and ticketing system gives them first dibs, whilst excluding young people, i.e. buy a £35 membership to be allowed to purchase tickets. There are loads of young people stuck in the all STH bracket who will never climb out of it, until they change the system.

[Iamstu1]

Looks like as a non priority STH I am now looking for two for this as well, will take one if anyone can help. thanks.

[Zaid]

After a spare pls

This, its more likely to be the younger supporters who don't realise, most have never known us be rubbish. Try to make out Liverpool or Spurs are our natural foes

[lcfcjosh]

I never said the OAPS wouldn’t know so don’t put words into my mouth

This bracket is always a strange one, for this game over 1000 sold, but for Ipswich only a couple of hundred were sold in this bracket. Probably a lot in this one who have had their ST for 10 years plus (500 points for renewing each year) but with less than 20 away games in that period, probably not gone anywhere out of the midlands 🤦🏼‍♂️

Think you're spot on tbh.

[gp96]

As with many others I’d love a ticket for this if someone can’t go. Happy to collect from wherever and will pay face value plus a beer or soft drink of your choice 😅 

[Liam smith]

Anyone able to sort me two tickets out will pay in advance if people are planning on not going?

[adejo92]

Yeh, if anyones hip replacement gets rescheduled for 13th I'll have your ticket off you.

[Harpenden Fox]

It’s the young people who are to blame. Anyone under the age of 30 simply spend the whole game staring at their phone. Meanwhile us old people can’t remember where we’ve put our phones, or even what it is we are watching. 
 

That’s where your problem lies. Now, what’s for tea?

Hahahahah, I agree!!! Clubs like Man city, Man u, Leeds, Liverpool etc 22 year old away fans arrive with only quarter full drip trays, brand new trackies and phones full of battery. Their old people are always drunk. Why is it in our fanbase our 17-25 year old away fans are especially 'special' with full drip trays and dead phones after filming all the sceeeenes? Why aren't our OAP fans as drunk and a 20 pack of B&H down?

Nearer the truth than you know, makes me laugh that the so called old brigade are blamed whenever the atmosphere is crap.I was surrounded by the younger generation at QPR who spent the part of the game they were actually in the stand all on their phones putting bets on, discussing every goal scored in the PL, then checking how said bets were going , that was before they disappeared for a pint around the 38th minute before returning at least 5 minutes into the 2nd half to start laying bets again.

Had similar experiences elsewhere this season.

Any come back on since yesterday?
