Well done the travelling Jack Army!
I believe the valleys club up the road have the worst record in the league....bet they're so proud of that record! |  |

Not to be too negative but is this based on banning orders?
If so, firstly it's old data and not a reflection of current behaviour.
Secondly, many or probably most of our banning orders were when we were a lower league club, so you'd need to calculate a rate based on per 1,000 fans, which, given our much smaller attendances in the lower leagues, would put us much higher up in the worse table.
I do think the Jack army deserve huge praise for their behaviour, it's a much more fun and barmy atmosphere (someone last week compared it to the Tartan army last week) rather than what it was like 10 years ago or more when I felt there was a small element of loutish behaviour from a minority. We had our issues back then and had a bit of a reputation but huge credit to the club and the fans that wherever we go now, speaking from personal experience, we get welcomed by home fans....
also, we (or at least I) often get "you're a good bunch..... unlike your neighbours". |  |

I mention about the tartan army comparison on another thread, i Think,at least from my own personal experience, its quite accurate. We seem to ne more up for the occasion and having fun no matter who or where we Are playing and that has had a big effect on what away fans Think of us.
Having a good football identity has definatly helped us too. Neutral fans enjoy how we try and play and that coupled with some good banter and fun makes going away a good experience for many.
The Jack army has matured like a fine wine and everyone deserves credit for that.
Long may we continue to put the eastern block up the road in the shade on and off the field, the difference between the supporters is night and day, and most opposition fans would confirm that. |  | | |

Not to put a downer on it but I don't think our away support is as good as your making Out, some aways last year were hurrendous, a few games where people were 90% sitting down and not bothered about singing etc! In fact we took more numbers to places like Newcastle, Southampton etc when we were in the championship |  |
| Win, draw or lose.. Jacks are on the booze

I suppose we could say we had a dip in form on the terraces ! It works for the players why not the fans !..  | | | |
