    We didnt sell it out. The official number was 3500 or so. Where our sales were slow, we weren't given the max number until the last minute. But that is our (fans) fault for buying slowly.

    Vocal support and I had a great day, don't get me wrong. I just dont understand a thread knocking their support when they are averaging more home and away than us this year.

      i done a thread knocking their support because ,our sad rivals used to average about 6000 in the 80s ,when my generation were coming through the ranks, then suddenly a few years later they get a couple of promotions and they average over 20 k , sorry Sponge,but that extra 14000 dosn`t count in my book ,they are just a bunch of add on newbies .Plus they didnt sell out at ours last season ,much to their shame.
      At Craven Cottage in October we sold out our allocation . Which is more than they have done at ours .
      The fact that Fulham released more tickets to us ,a couple of days before the match ,after we had sold out their away end out , says that they knew they couldnt sell out their sad neutral section. So saying we didnt sell the away end out there is just incorrect.
      And just to clarify why i put up the thread knocking their support ,its because they always put our posts on here up on their FOF site , and i wanted to give them a gee up , just to remind them , because 3/4s of their fans have no idea about the pecking order in west London,( and they are last ) , thats all .

                I agree in part. We weren't offered the 4200 seats because our sales were so slow so our club didn't take up the option due to the club having to pay for any in sold.

                They have a better away following than us this year. I know they are higher in the table, but still.

                We are the bigger club though, I definitely agree with that. More years higher than them league wise in our history's. I have 2Fulham fans and I have £10 bets with both so I wanna beat them just as much as you. I just don't have a hatred for Fulham but they do hate us, the younger one hates us more (25).

                    that would be up to 1965. Things started to change, we had 2 promotions and Fulham were relegated to the 2nd tier. Their gates steadily went down and ours up

                    This morning's tempest I have to cross

                                yes Westie ,lots of gaps in the upper School end , nowhere near selling out the 3000 away end , and to be fair what they did bring couldn`t be ar sed to sing , worse than last season , sad sorry little club. At least we go to them ,sell it out and sing all game ,even when were getting beat, still 4 point out of 6 this season
