demon_dog Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Been asked before I know. Has anything changed? Which is your favourite place to visit, could be that your favourite club is not necessarily in your favourite town/city. It may not be in the PL.
PhillippaT Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 I've never been to a match yet I wonder how hard it would be to get a ticket to the Arsenal vs Leicester match? (At least we're loaded atm. so money isn't an issue! (I can't believe I even said that! Definitely come a long way since working at Walkers (pies, not crisps.))
VLC86 Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Il go with Brugge. Used to love the terrace at Peterborough, West Brom has been great every time, Forest is class and enjoyed Barnsley whenever I've been there.
Bayfox Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Brugge Porto Madrid Copenhagen Sevilla West Brom Palace Norwich In that order. All for different reasons.
Rob1742 Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Norwich City. Great City to visit, a short walk to the ground and a decent hotel to stay at (Maids Head) Also love going to Portman Road, a proper football ground that still has some old features to it. Hereford was brilliant a few years ago. Took me back 30 years to what football grounds used to be like. Don't get excited by the new big grounds. Cov City is like a conference centre, void of any carachter, and Old Trafford (even though it's an old ground) is like Disneyland Really miss grounds like Roker Park, Ayresome Park, The Baseball Ground, Highfield Road and Maine Road. These places had so much history and you could feel it as you made your way to the ground. You turned the corner and there was Ayresome Park nestled between houses. It was like a community, an old working mans club, it had a feel to it. I suppose you only get that feeling these days at Liverpool or Everton, but don't enjoy parking up and going to these two places.
rn9013 Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 I don't get to many away games, probably 1 or 2 a season at most. However of the ones I have been to, I prefer older grounds. I really enjoyed Hillsborough. An old ground with bundles of history and character.
sylofox Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 As rn9013 Hillsboro for me a never to return to ground Millwall. Twice to cold blow lane and once to the new den is enough for me.
foxfanazer Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 I'll second Brugge. Amazing place. Some of my favourite away days have been, Wolves, West Brom and Chelsea
Soar Fox Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Brugge was fantastic despite the nearly 2 hour walk it took us. Sheffield Utd Barnsley Birmingham City WBA West Ham (Boleyn) Peterborough All grounds I look forward to going to when we are in the same league.

Paddy_D Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Stoke away on the Train. Terrace Bar and then singing on the 'party' buses that take you to the ground. Been great the last two seasons after coming back from 2-0 nil down both games. The party buses back to the station going by the Stoke fans were brilliant. Also, any London Club away day on the train is a good day out as you can make a good day of it.
SemperEadem Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Peterborough on that terrace Can't wait to get either Sheffield team again.
rgc1967 Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Going back a bit but Fulham away division 2 1983 Ian Wilson scoring at the city end we won 1-0 and got promoted that season absolutely mental.Then although we didn't want to be there league 1 was a pretty descent season for away days

Well, maybe not quite THAT loaded, (I think my Mum is, though - she partly owns the company I'm working for, and I know what their accounts look like), but I've had a decent job (£500 p/w+some fairly big bonuses for helping out with their IT/MS Office setup) for the past three (has it really been three already?) years in London, have no rent/mortgage to pay and haven't spent much... (I like looking at my bank balance these days )
Voll Blau Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Hereford and Peterborough for the terraces. Any seaside place for the jolly, any South Yorkshire side for a few scoops in Sheffield. There's still something about any away involving St Pancras too - regardless of how horrifically boring the ground you end up at is.

Ted Maul Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 In no particular order: Hillsborough, Anfield, Carrow Road, The Hawthorns, Goodison Park. London Road was great, but I can't imagine it's the same now. There's plenty of good aways that I either haven't done yet or didn't do properly though.

m4DD0gg Posted 15 June 2017 Posted 15 June 2017 Barnsley Hillsborough London Road (before terracing was removed) Stoke a few years ago on some random 1980's double decker bus after being sent to some dive pub that got trashed.

Nope It's a pretty closed shop, only 5 of us and that's enough (The fact we might be all women who like other women is just a coincidence, honest...)
