Newcastle away on the weekend when we won 3-2 and then down to Southampton when we battered them 4-1 away midweek a few days later, Puels revolution looked great then.

 

both from Broughton.

 

132+192= 324miles

The most games I have seen in a season  1987/88 when I saw the last 20 home and away so I started there. Bradford away and Middlesbrough away at the end of the season totals about 260, one way  That’s the best I can do so far

Do friendlies away against Oxford United and then Celtic in the space of 4 days count? lol

What do we think?

 

I'm minded to say  yes because that's even more impressive than cup competitions!

Thanks for the reminder, didn't do the cup game but did Portsmouth away in the league and then Norwich away.

 

Actually quite tricky to remember back to back away matches. Quite rare anyway.

Drove to all 3 from kegworth might take some beating

Must be some hardy fans who did some of these … rough mileage to and from Leicester for each …

 

2014 - Newcastle/Swansea - 630 miles
2013 - Middlesboro/Wycombe - 501 miles
2013 - Yeovil/Doncaster - 465 miles
2013 - Sheff Wed/Brighton - 414 miles
 
*** edited, think I went the wrong way on the Sat nav with my original mileage!
 
I did Hillsborough to the AMEX back in 2013, 414 ish miles. @Ashley sure you did this too?

Slight cheat and a bit different, but in 2010/11 I did this with a few other hardy souls. Tues-Fri-Tues (From Leicester)

 

Tues - Portsmouth away (W 2-1, Lge Cup) (159 miles)
Fri - Portsmouth away (L-1-6) (159 miles)

Tues - Norwich away (L 3-4) (134 miles)

 

Just also in the 2013/14 season, anyone who did Carlisle away in the cup and then went to Charlton away four days later... that's 315 miles apart apparently.

 

 

Yep I did these three.
