Stoke. I made the mistake last time of walking back from the ground to the station along the canal. In the dark. Not recommended.

If they come up - Reading.

Awful flat pack Stadium, cringeworthy fans and ****ing miles away - from the NE anyways. Stoke is another, only it's one of our closest ones. Swansea too is just boring.

Ahh...so it was you then I had that encounter with under the bridge.

I thought you were very tender TBH x

While it's the game we all want to attend Palace at Selhurst. Rubbish view, poor stadium, being locked in after the game and then treated like cattle by the police.
Yes I'd love a ticket but it's the game we love to hate.

Gets my vote as well its just all the baggage that comes with the game. I just wonder what draconian measures the Met will bring in for this fixture given that they wanted to ban all away fans for the play off game and only relented with photo id and keeping everyone back for what seemed liked days.

This, but you can have my ticket. I would rather watch it on a dodgy internet stream with adverts popping up every two minutes than give money to Palace and let the Police treat me worse than cattle - at least cattle get fed, watered and allowed go to the toilet!

Bournemouth is a sh*t away day IMO, won't be fussed at all if I miss out on tickets for it.

With the Merseyside & Manchester clubs involved in Europe it's likely our games will be moved wouldn't you think? That'll involve hotels for me so no problem there as there's loads to do in both cities. Burnley's okay too - a bit rough around the edges but it's not the worst place in the world (for me anyway) Stoke? Last time I went there was at the Victoria Ground which I thought was a terrific ground -real old school with a great atmosphere. I didn't linger in town though. So for me it's the London games that don't inspire me, especially after our last visit to WHL. And of those I have to agree with [MENTION=17545]Arkwright[/MENTION], Selhurst Park is the least enjoyable away game in my humble opinion. I'll probably go (despite saying I wouldn't) but I just hope it's early in the season on a sunny Saturday afternoon so I can ride up then get out of Dodge

Palace is Palace, we all know what it is like and what's going to happen.
Everybody seems hung up on Stoke and Burnley, but, for me the two away (and Home) matches i am not looking forward to is Manchester United and Chelsea.
Unless you drink and eat outside of the area, both have the most horrible, sarcastic, nasty, up themselves, in fact every negative adjective I can think of.
There are others, Arsenal and Tottenham spring to mind and maybe West Ham, but Man U and Chelsea are far far worse.
I know its asking a lot but if we can get a draw or even a win against these 2, then i would be like a dog with 2 dicks.

Stoke. I've been there multiple times and I think we've lost every time. It's a horrible ground, in the shittest town in the UK and the fans are horrible. The fact that Delilah is their song which is about smacking your missus about sums it up.

Burnley next year is a game worth going to. It's something we can realistically get something out of. Barnes v Duffy will be worth watching.

Fair shout actually....even though it's not too far, it's total crap. Horrendous traffic afterwards too.

I've nothing but respect for the die-hard Albion fans who travel to away grounds and spend their hard-earned doing so. So, on that note, being a plastic tosser - I'm going to guess at Burnley in January, evening match, when it's extra cold. It'll probably be snowing, too..

Second to that, Reading on a Sunday - battling with everyone doing their shopping at the stupid circle of superstores surrounding the place.

Watford. Nothing massively horrible, just an extremely dull place.

It's only the high street that needs the regeneration treatment away from the Jeremy Kyle set design!
Apart from that, it's a great shopping experience, not that I'm into that sort of thing.
New cinema venue being built.
All set for Albion's next fanbase PL visit :wink:
