Terrace or Seats?

Edit: Remember the terrace has no roof!

Last year we made a hell of a noise in the "Tent" but mainly due to the "Buckle" factor. I would say go seating but I don't think the numbers of away fans will be as high as last time.

How many did we take last season? On their forum they only reckon we'll bring 300 ish average this.

Yeah, Rovers fans, we should definitely take their word for stuff.

"We'll piss this league" - August 2011
"**** you Torquay, Buckle is the best manager in the division and now he's ours. With him at the helm, we'll piss this league" - May 2011
"That Bevan is a quality keeper. With him in net, we'll piss this league" - June 2011

"Haha, McGee is a quality manager. Now he's here, we'll piss this league" - January 2012
"Alright, McGee has had all summer to get people in. We'll be top by Christmas and we'll go on to piss this league" - August 2012

All in all, Andy, they haven't been totally reliable in their predictions so far, I wouldn't trust their judgement.

You can see all the attendance figures home and away for the last three seasons here: http://www.torquayfans.com/attendances/

Cheers Gulliball, oh and good luck to Slovakia this evening in their tough home game against Greece.

Fascinating to see our away average has basically doubled in the last two years. Obviously last year helped with the Argyle game and being near the top, but some of those followings from the Argyle game onwards are excellent. More of the same this season please everyone!

Top comment but I have to ask when did 'piss the league' become a reliable and accurate saying?! Typical Rovers fans!

Seating is sold out now

Not sure its sold out, it says Torquay allocation is sold out, but Torquay fans can still buy direct from Rovers. I guess they sent x amount to Plainmoor, they have gone, and now its too late to send anymore. Ill buy mine tomorrow just to be sure!

I guess you could buy more on the gate, £2 extra though

So, are the seats sold out for us, or not?

the seats are not sold out you just have to phone bristol rovers to get them, they are the same price £18.50 + 65p if you want them posted to you, i did this yesterday and my tickets arrived this morning

Should be on the why? thread but why does our club charge me around £3 to post a ticket when, if as you say Rovers charged you 65p to send one.
