lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted December 6, 2013 [quote user="TCCANARY"] It''s fans voting with their feet. http://services.pinkun.com/forums/pinkun/cs/forums/2/3026887/ShowPost.aspx#3026887 [/quote] Stop being facetious. It took long enough at £12.50p a ticket. Pre-Hughton Liverpool away would have always sold out regardless of price or day. So the thread you bring up still has relevance.

Beefy is a legend 224 Posted December 6, 2013 That ''voting with their feet'' thread did make me laugh. Based upon one small midweek away attendance when there wasn''t a spare seat in the house for our home game v lowly Palace - I believe it was a new record all-seater attendance at Fortress Carrow Road?Still, why not spin stats to suit whatever agenda you have...

We''re quick to laugh and joke at teams like wigan for their poor following. So is it we''re crap fans or is something else keeping the fans away?? I think the latter.

RvWs 4 year contract 0 Posted December 6, 2013 Tomorrow is my first away game since Arsenal.I''m not up for it at all. I think the excitement I had for away games has all but gone. Just feels like a chore now. Hopefully tomorrow will be an improvement on previous weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A common trend for when a team is playing poor or when the fans are unhappy is for attendances drop. Its fairly simple really. Away games logically will suffer first before home games start to feel the effect. This Saturday kind of goes against trend, However tickets prices are very Low which will distort things. Still I''d argue, pre Hughton tickets at that price for any Norwich away game would never make general sale. So clearly, although sold out (or nearly as the actual case is), the demand is much less then it previously has been. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote] This Saturday follows the trend of selling out away allocations, the Liverpool game was one of the rare times we haven''t sold out our away allocation making it the game that does not follow the trend.As for the ticket prices distorting things, I think you''ll find that''s just good marketing coupled with a realistic approach to pricing.

TIL 1010 4,737 Posted December 6, 2013 ''We have sold out the away end tomorrow'' does not tell the story of how many tickets we asked to be allocated. Was it 2,000,3000 or maybe 4,000 ? That end at West Brom can be made bigger or smaller as the need justifies in the same way the Jarrold for away support at Carrow Road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
