I am surprised by PNE's following. I am not surprised by Blackburn's.

Interesting actually and I assume there was a similar table last season and I'd have been keen to see where we featured and what our stats were, especially after it finished. I guess it's not particularly definitive, especially at this stage of the season as it depends on the fixtures you've had and the distances involved, not to mention kick off times. No surprise who's at the top and (laughingly) bottom, but I see Plymouth come out very well as (unsurprisingly) they seem to have travelled the most miles and are well up the table.

PNE's big following was last Friday at Deadwood.

I think us, Sunderland and Cov were consistently in the top 3 last season

Sunderland had the highest average, then us.

Rovers lowest following so far was 429.

You must have to go back a lot of years for us to have taken such low numbers.

But that was Sunday 12 noon KO at Norwich. Their coaches left at 3.30am!

I would imagine that was Norwich away for them, don't know the number but when we won at Brighton with Weghorst scoring that was a low turn out

Thought Leeds would be higher. Suppose it's skewed because not all clubs will have played at grounds like Ewood, Deepdale and the Ricoh where you get plenty of tickets.

Plymouth always travel pretty well to be fair to them, plus first time at this level for a while.

Yes, the Leeds figure is a surprise.

But maybe it's for the reasons you give.

We had some very low away attendances that season!

The lowest I can think of that sticks out, was Ipswich on a Tuesday night. Around 670 went down.

I can't see any attendances on my phone from that page.

Surprised QPR are so high but there's a fair few other teams in and around London. By the time they've played Boro, Sunderland, Hull and Preston etc I'm sure it will be a lot lower.

[Claretitus]

PNE been travelling in larger numbers because of their good start to the season. Plenty of Plymouth at Deepdale earlier in the season. Very good turnout.

Turn it to landscape.

It's all relative dependant on who've you've played, KO times, allocation etc

Some mentioning Plymouth having good away support and whilst I agree they've obviously got long journeys (180 miles to London, 50 miles to Exeter) it's a huge catchment area population 300,000 approx with sizable towns all around without any football teams, they've basically got the SW corner of England to themselves.

These were the final standings last season.

Blackburn have so far played most of their long distance away games so will finish higher. Preston have played at Blackburn, Rotherham, Hull, Leicester, Stoke in theirs, plus had started the season at the top.

If Blackburn gave us the full allocation, we would have averaged over 200 more.
