Your Three Must-Go-To Away Games

[Return of the Rev]

Will be hoping for a good cup draw,last away game villa cup i think

 

[Trigger]

Everton
West Bromwich Albion
Arsenal

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Accrington Stanley in The Cup.

There were some right corporate misfits at Villa Park, you know, the type you would never see at Rotherham away on a Tuesday or even Barnsley on a Saturday. But big game and the jumper draped over the shoulder brigade were all out.

They didn't have a clue about away day etiquette, insisted on sitting in their allocated seat, well at least Henry and Tarquin were happy for the 90 mins.

If this is what it will be like next season, I think I will give up going away... It could be embarrassing!

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Accrington Stanley. Away. Please.

palace

last time I went there in the top flight we won 3-0

WBA

never went to the Hawthorns for the famous league cup win

Burnley

Turf Moor,one of the old greats that I have never been to

went to Old Trafford,Anfield,Highbury,WHL etc first time around,the newer versions don't do much for me

 

[Bolton va va]

I only go for the beer so put me down for the 2 Mancs and Newcastle

For a booze up i'd recommend Liverpool.... for Everton away. They're terrible seats but the place has plenty atmosphere & the Everton fans are alright.
.
I'd avoid Anfield & Old Trafford, with both of them full of nu-fans & tourists making them both soulless.

We are all Brighton fans. What's the problem?

You really need to ask?

 

[el punal]

You really need to ask?

Well yes, I did need to ask. It seems to me that you expect "proper" Albion fans to be of a certain category, i.e. the sort that YOU approve of. The reality, and the beauty, of being a football fan is that they come in all shapes and sizes, from different backgrounds, booze and swear a lot, or not, young and old, sit down or stand up, and so on and so forth. It really doesn't matter. The common denominator in all of this is they support and follow Brighton and Hove Albion, and long may that continue.

Well funny that it is always the same old faces at away games. Give you the local ones tend to bring out the once a year brigade!

 

[s5.bha]

Everton , Chelsea and Spurs..........didn't include Palarse as never enjoy playing them , too much tension !

 

[Merdalfthewizard]

Everton and Liverpool, just up the road from me, either city or united, 20 minutes on the train. Nights out in both cities are recommended, Liverpool city centre I've found is less intimidating. Tottenham for the Wembley experience, Id have thought there'll be more than 3k away tickets for that, I may be wrong tho.

 

[wakeytom]

Really dont get the love in for Spurs at Wembley - playing there as its their home ground is not anything special, the atmosphere will not be like a cup final game.

On the other hand the slating that old Trafford is getting is a joke, one of the better grounds I think having been there around 5 times as an away fan along with a few champions league games and normal home games when I got offered tickets and Sunderland/Wakefield were not on

Emirates is impressive although was stale when we went at the end of last season.

Burnley: nasty fans, shit ground. Been there, done that, got the t'shirt (over the years) and a place never to be frequented again.

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Everton, Man U and Liverpool.

You've probably seen my old face too many times!!

 

[pasty]

Everton - never been
Arsenal - been to The Emirates but for a gig, not football
Spurs - been to Wembley but for a gig, not football

Also throw in West Ham, West Brom and Man City as not been any of them either

 

[Barry Izbak]

Three grounds I haven't seen us play at

 

[Don Parasol]

Palace, Swansea... then Everton or West Brom
