Peterborough I like.

For some bizarre reason I've always quite liked Wycombe Wanderers. And Yeovil would have been a good trip this season if only we hadn't played quite so shit. Nice tidy little grounds, reasonable atmosphere from the home fans (particularly Yeovil).

I loved Rushden & Diamonds when we won there, although the town was a nothing sort of place.

Sod all these glamour matches in the Championship, give me a midweek away trek to some League One hole and I'm happy as Larry

:lolol:

Plymouth,

got a friends and family live there did a round there last year for six pints came to £9.50 and over to family in Cornwall for Sunday lunch on the way home,

for atmosphere cant beat small unfashionable clubs, Scunthorpe, Doncaster where the away day fans dont go

London clubs. You can't beat them especially Millwall. Often the atmosphere gets quite hostile. Apart from that i enjoy my Yorkshire trips

Torquay has always been my favorite, an excuse for a weekend on the piss in the English Riviera.

exeter for the same reason, ditto Plymouth.

There seems to be a pattern emerging, most people enjoy trips to smaller clubs in the further flung parts of the country, rather than places (like Spurs, West Ham, etc) where we usually manage a couple of thousand. What I like is that the singing is usually far better, and wittier, with just a few hundred singing. Granted you don't get the volume or effect, but it is usually easier to get more people to join in and sing the words of our more complicated songs...rather than the old favourites. One of the reasons I can't wait for the Bristol game, there will probably be just a few hundred of us there, but the singing should be brilliant.

High up on the South Downs.
Rochdale is great for pubs but haven't seen us win there since Kit Napier's days.

Other favourites: Huddersfield, Hartlepool, Sunderland, Southampton, Notts County, Fulham, Kidderminster, Ipswich, Lincoln.

Dislikes: Cardiff, Colchester, Luton.

Rochdale is always a good day out, know some lads up there from England games so good to catch up. Also the Sam Smiths pub near the station is still under £1.50 a pint.

Norwich is a good day out due to the fact that it has the best boozer in England there, The Fat Cat!

:clap2:

I thought that was in Ipswich.

The one up by the ground is good in Norwich and the Ketts Tavern was quality, decent pint and the catering was done by the Indian Take-away next door.

When the game got postponed in Norwich it did turn into a good day on the piss, I think.

Wycombe away with the megaphone and the police, pure genius
the coppers looking for the megaphone in vein, and every now and then someone would scream into it, the police would pile in after it, by which time, it had been passed on and someone else would shout into it, and the police would go after it again - MAGIC


also Forest away when we lost 3-2 infront a full house, and the mexican wave went round, when it got to our bit, a huge chorus of "Coooowees" as we waved

Good atmosphere at Peterborough, but the pubs in the area near the ground could hardly be described as friendly, come to think of it the town centre wasn't much better...bouncers with ego's to match their stature.
