Enjoyed reading the thread from last season with updates on the travelling masses (and Charlton).

I cant remember who started it - maybe @The Organiser or @ElfsborgAddick - any plans to do one this season ?

    That turnout for Oxford at MKD is really impressive. While MK is relatively close, it's not as if there are direct trains there

    It would be interesting if you could find a survey of how people travel to away games. Going by train would probably be in the minority tbh.

    New ground and a local derby, so not really that surprising

    A local derby of sorts, but 38 miles away by road so not that local!

    That's probably less than an hour's ride. It usually takes me more that that to get to the valley

    #2 Celtic at Dundee – 4,000*
    #3 QPR at Fulham – 3,500*
    #4 Boro at West Ham – 3,000*

    #9 Bournemouth at Watford – 2,158*
    #10 Chelsea at Hull – 2,122

    Weekend just gone:

    #1 Rangers at Inverness – 3,700*
    #2 Leeds at Derby – 3,132*
    #3 Everton at Man City – 3,000*

    I see Newcastle have taken 6k to Barnsley tonight.
    Also 4,300 Villa at Reading. Villa not won away in 14 months.

    You'd expect both them to sell out everywhere regardless though tbf.

    Surprised City didn't sell out an attractive fixture & Chelsea couldn't fill their section at Hull. Good attendance from Villa.

    Was the game sold out? If so, some of those could have Geordies keeping very quiet when the goals went in.

    I thought the same. But all the photos I've seen (away days Instagram/Facebook) it looks sold out.

    Direct trains Oxford to MK are not so far off. The new eastwest rail link should see an even bigger uplift in attendance between these giants of home counties football.
    http://www.eastwestrail.org.uk/east-west-rail-route/

    Milton Keynes to Oxford (continuing to Reading)
    Milton Keynes – Bletchley – Winslow – Bicester Village – Oxford Parkway – Oxford – Reading
    1 train per hour in each direction
    Approximate journey time: Milton Keynes to Oxford 41 minutes
