away support percentages
Has anyone worked out the percentage of away support in relationship to average home support?
With an average home gate under 3,000 Torquays away support must be one of the hightest percentage in League 2.
Does such a stat exist?

We average 2826 at home so far, and 403 away, so that's 14.3% that travel away.
Take off the away fans and we average 2476 Torquay fans per game at Plainmoor, so an average of 16.3% of our home fans go away.
Average away fans to Plainmoor is 351, so we take an average of 50 more per game to each of the teams in the division than they bring here, and with two sell out to come that will rise further.
A few sites will post the whole division stats at the end of the season, if I remember I'll bump the thread then. We'll easily be in the top half.

This keeps getting flagged up. There is a league table somewhere based on the average home attendance and the away attendance.
I seem to remember Torquay have one of the biggest percentages in League 1 and 2. The problem is when you get to the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd, they consistantly fill their away end allocations and could probably most weeks have more away fans than home fans (Salisbury v Torquay spring to mind). therefore their % are distorted due to limitation of allocations.
Let's not forget when Exeter played Plymouth they took something like 900 (SG knows the number) and we took well over 1000.

We actually took 2000 to Argyle if you add in the ones in home areas. Exeter took around 1500 for the league game but closer to 2000 for the JPT match before that.

Ha! I keep a spreadsheet running of our home and away attendances, just takes a few minutes to input a few numbers after every game and it's quite useful now and again.bobby93 wrote:Too much time on your hands, Chris?
Now of course going back to find previous years and creating a spreadsheet for those too would like a fair bit of time, only a real loser would do a thing like that...

A spreadsheet of attendances?
