ST holders - how many home league games will you have missed this season?

[Cowfold Seagull]

All of Burnley, Hull and Middlesbrough were home in the first game last season.

That may well be a clue then. Must admit though, I had no idea that promoted clubs always started the season at home.

 

[Marshy]

I have only missed 1 home game in all the time at the Amex

And that thankfully was the 1-0 defeat to Millwall around Christmas time under Mr Hyypia, bloody Xmas meal blemished my record....

I did however manage to spoil the meal by watching the game on my phone...

 

[Gwylan]

I answered one but I actually missed two: I was ill for Ipswich but I'd forgotten I'd missed the Forest game as I was on holiday. Our holiday is for the second weekend this year so I hope we are at home for the first game

 

[dazzer6666]

A couple whilst on holiday early seasonI think Brentford and possibly one other but I can't remember and can't be bothered to check), Derby because of a work trip (and Sky moving it to a bloody Friday) and the rearranged Cardiff game (also due to a work trip)

 

[BBassic]

Three I think. One because of holiday, one because of illness and one because I couldn't swap my on call shift.

 

[Munkfish]

I missed Brentford, I cant even remember why though.

However We travelled all the way back from the alps to make kick off with minutes to spare for the Burton game.

Not always been the case, don't know if this is something that has been introduced in the last couple of seasons ?

1 - Sheffield Wednesday

But i was running around cheering like a maniac when the dodgy stream finally caught up with Knockys goal. I think i was responsible for waking up half of the French Alps

Oh I wasn't suggesting it was definitive, just that all 3 sides were at home first game last season. It's not massive odds of that just happening as selected by the magical fixtures computer.

 

[Weretheweststand]

2 for me - Birmingham and Blackburn, was away on Holiday

No I know.....I'd also heard it somewhere though, but can't find any reference to it anywhere.

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

Missed one from memory, think I was on hols, but seat was enthusiastically taken. One Hibs fan has at least got us as his second team now

 

[halbpro]

Two I think. I know I've missed one certainly, think it was Birmingham, and I've got a nagging feeling I've missed another but I can't remember what it was.

 

[Beach Hut]

Only the Norwich game and bloody annoying as well, followed it by BBC website in Fuertaventura departure lounge

 

[lawros left foot]

I've missed one this season, Huddersfield, it was my 30th Wedding anniversary.

But, I had 3 icd shocks (cardiac arrests) the night before the Blackburn game, and was still there, and I worked that morning, and climbed the stairs to the WSU.

 

[sussex_guy2k2]

2. But I'm an early leaver, so that probably adds up to a 3 game deduction, bringing me down to five.

 

[Bigtomfu]

Two: Forest and Fulham.

Both I recall as a result of SASTA. Barstewards

 

[adub68]

Missed Wolves - work travel - made up for it by turning up twice for Cardiff!!; managed to do 9 away with Villa to come

 

[sir albion]

I'd bet my right bollock that most ST holders who live a fair bit out of Brighton would miss most midweek games

 

[drew]

Missed 2 home games at start due to holidays and been to 9 away games.
