all time worst away day

[Art Vs Science]

A snow/ice fest away day at Barnsley in the 80's. The coldest game i can remember. One Albion fan decided that projectile vomiting on the terrace thus creating a huge circle of space between him and anyone else was a good idea

turning up at Luton JPT game , then getting escorted back to the station when we were in the boozer watching the game

Easy's Yeovil experience. Except I missed out on the car park (been there before), sitting at the station for an hour instead. Never going back.

Millwall away 1972. None of my mates fancied it so I went on my own. Abysmal performance, lost 0 - 3 , had to exit the ground amongst a group of elderly 'Wall fans to avoid their nutters.
It was the first game in a sequence of 12 straight defeats.

Thats mine too, took the family, with petrol, food match tickets it cost me in excess of £200. Thought I would write to Norwich that due to the kids schools we wouldn't be able to make the rearranged midweek game. Wouldn't refund my money but offered 5 "free" pies. Thanks Delia, I despise those inbreds.

Luton - JPT

Stupid game that palace one - our fans rucking with police with riot shields and on horses, opened like a tin of spam on the field and strewn while the filth kept playing that shit 'glad all over'.

We still owe them - I'm hoping Amex will be like Rome and we maul those bastards mercilessly. Make it so Gus, Will get a hat-trick plus 1, then we prevent their train from picking them up and let em wait on Falmer Station for an hour or so - with ours singing Tom Hark "ya can't go home, ya lost 7 nil, Murray sent off and you look f'ing ill"

Has to be a match in September 2003 to watch Barnet at Dover.

It was a warm Tuesday afternoon and I met our group at Victoria. We started on the beers around 2pm and after a few, feeling tipsy an hour later, I decided to take LSD off some blotting paper. The guy I got it off said it wasn't any stronger than the usual 50 micrograms so thought it would enhance the day and enjoy some spiritual visualisations. Well f***ing hell! This stuff was absolutely lethal; completely overpowering. Being quite a novice of the drug didn't help. I was elated at first but soon got very scared and paranoid. Luckily the guys looked after me and in all the pubs we sat in the beer garden. The more I drank the less I hallucinated, still finding beauty in the autumn sunshine, plants and skyline inbetween occasional panic attacks and lining up a couple of garden gnomes carefully! By the time we got to the ground I was still quite out of it but Barnet won 1-0. I wasn't fully aware of the action but by the end and the fact it was completely dark, a sense of normality returned. The train back from Dover Priory seemed to take forever. It was one hell of a strange day to put it mildly but quite a frightening experience.

scum away when we lost 5-0 and luton away is rubbish because there is no leg room in the away and its a shit hole

 

[Ringmer Seagull]

This year is my 40th year of watching the Albion. I can honestly say that no away game comes close to the 5-0 at Selhurst for sheer misery. The only redeeming feature is that it made our next trip there all the sweeter....now that night is right up there with the best away games.

canvey island......bunch of pathological nutters
Oldham on their artificial pitch was it 5-1 or something like that
this season...Stoke....wat a dissapointment that was


oh yes and Luton in the 70's horrible experience and vowed never to go there again

 

[Paddy B]

Nothing was worse than 26-10-02 but dishonourable mentions for Bristol Rovers away I think mid 90s at Twerton. Lost 1-0 but played so poorly I think we only had one shot and that nearly went for a throw. Luton. Didn't go to the JPT game but a league game about 8 years ago midweek lost 2-0 horrible town horrible ground horrible fans and Hull away in Adams first season (the "useless" Cameron game)

 

[Martinf]

Loads. But the one that's just popped into my bonce is Charlton away when the Robbins were at Upton Park. A certain G Nelson scored for Charlton. Also, Like Granny W, I remember Oldham on their plastic pitch - we got hammered and I got soaked. I vowed to give up but was back on the terraces again the next Saturday.

 

[El Turi]

For me it was Scunthorpe away in 1997. Horrible place, crap game, shit stadium and we lost 1-0 which meant we looked certain to go down to the Conference. That was a long depressing trip home.

 

[scousegull]

Huddersfield 7-1 Albion on a Tuesday night. One of the few times when I have actually felt humiliated watching us, and I also had one of my SCC supporting mates with me, which hardly improved the situation. The evening was only mildly improved by a SUPERB curry in Huddersfield town centre afterwards.

 

[pasty]

Oldham 6 - 1 Brighton

Ex-player hatrick against us
Boundary Park ('nuff said)
Plastic pitch
Worst meat (joke) and potato pie in the world EVER
'kin freezing
'kin pissed down all the way home
Alternater went on car on way home

 

[ngood77]

Canvey Island for me, didn't see that crazy afternoon coming although luckily I did see the traffic cone hurtling towards me in time to duck.

Crewe where we got taken apart by the huge black striker who's name escapes me Ak***** in something. We were f***ing dire, I forget the score 4-0, 5-0? Shit from the kick off and what a Micky Mouse ground too.

 

[Seagull Steve]

That Palarse game for sure. Also went up to Hull (can't remember year) on the train, the further north we went, the whiter the fields were. Train was delayed and when we arrived the old bill told us it was called off, and didn't let us off the station.
