I know Brighton fans are outraged cos they've not been given half our ground for a promotion party and because they gave us extra away tickets at their place.

I have a feeling we will be much more accommodating as the fixture approaches.

We wont, they will have the usual 2800 or whatever it is

SHA astonishingly finished 8th with somethjng like 1500.
It's not so surprising when you think for the first two thirds of the season they have been in and around the play offs under Rowett until they started their descent under Zola

This is a mistake no ?
They carry the cities name & the city has a population of almost 1.25 million people .
There's a zero missing from those figures surely ?

We are, of course, at something of an advantage due to our geographical location. It all gets a bit silly when it's broken down to specifics, safe to say we have a very strong away support along with Leeds and Newcastle.

Next season will be interesting, one would expect the novelty to wear off somewhat but I haven't been to as many aways as I would like due to the way the fixtures fell so hoping for something kinder next year.

Our away support has been brilliant this year. Let's not dissect it, lets just agree we are the best fans (which of course we know we are).

I know very little about the extent of Newcastle's away support for this season but having seen snippets of their game recently V Sheff Wed van say that the lower tier of their stand appeared to be quite a lot less than full, maybe half full.  Okay, it was a Friday night and televised but they are looking to win the league.

I've just seen some posts from Brighton fans,it seems the reason we won't give them a larger allocation is because of Barry & Calderwood! I think they maybe slightly deluded, if ever there was a team that no one cares about it's Brighton.

They were Sheffield Wednesday fans in the lower tier. Newcastle requested the full end but Wednesday only gave them the upper tier.

If we're in or above the play offs for all/most of next season then our away support will be as good or better than this season. If we have another season like this one then our away support will drop slightly, we won't sell out everywhere or virtually everywhere like Leeds do if we're doing poorly on the pitch.

Will be interesting to see if we maintain these numbers next season.

The prospect of more away wins and much bigger margins of victory should swell the proverbial coffers

I'm impressed with your knowledge about the future habits of our lot but also the comings and goings of people of this country following other teams up and down the country.

Don't forget to wave at the Brighton fans on the way down as we pass them on the way up end of next season (please God)

You mean you don't examine the away allocations of other non Villa clubs in minute detail?
