We have the internet and TV and stuff. I think it is a bit odd but I have encountered fans of other clubs that don't seem interested in who the players are. <edit> the players in their teams</edit> Edited September 6, 2018 by OxonOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wish we could tap into the casual bunch more often Probably the price and geographical location...and the results/performances last season Edited September 6, 2018 by HIGHERSTATE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castleford Owl Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 21 hours ago, @owlstalk said: All four away games sold out this season so far Brilliant support as always from Sheffield Wednesday fans Can only see it continuing this season too - could we end up with a full season of total sell out away followings? Clubs get the full Darwen end at Blackburn if they need it, about 8000. Can't see us filling it. Think 90 per cent will be sell outs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should stick to watching with Jeff and the lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 away games are far more fun,day out ,few beers and atmosphere is way better Hillsborough is a bore and too expensive not been to a game at Hillsborough since the steel derby last season,forest will be my 18th away game since start of last season. tickets are easy to get for away games if you put the effort in to find them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
