It’s good support but it’s only a 90 minute drive and it’s a reasonably big game for them and Wrexham last played At Ewood Park 43 years ago.
I’m sure lots of smaller teams including ourselves would take similar support if the circumstances were reversed.

Joff,
Would we have taken 9,000 away fans to West Ham FA CUP 3rd Rd?
We never sold out away allocation in the Premiership to their new ground, which I did travel to.
It took us in our 4th attempt to sell out away to Bristol City.
You know our support has been lost big time.
As to Wrexham I can’t stand them.
They once brought 25 fans to Ninian Park , In the old Championship.
But compare their away support to their home support it’s been Very impressive.

They are just on a roll at the moment, and the owners are charging the Football Club around 7% interest for the privilege.
Historical attendance records for the mighty Wrexham have them at 80th out of 92 in the all time rankings.
Small club punching way way above their weight IMHO

The West Ham United support didn’t sell out no, but they still took over 2,000 for a 7.45 kickoff and the date was 4th December which isn’t ideal.
We have taken large numbers to games at Liverpool and Arsenal in cup games though

I was there, Premier League.
You never answered would we take 9,000 away fans to West Ham FA CUP 3rd Rd?
And how come we have the 2nd worst away support in the Championship?
The actual real games we have Sold this season are Plymouth and Watford away.
