[Albion] Your Three Must Go To Away Trips 2024/25

[el punal]

Looking ahead, sans coach as it stands, to next season and which away day jollies take your fancy. For me the choice would be :

Ipswich - never been to Portman Road so another ground to tick off.

Everton - if they’re still in existence and if it’s completed their new gaff at Bramley Moore Dock.

Nottingham Forest - my first trip since we condemned Reading to 7th place in the Championship in 2014.

Honourable mentions - Southampton, ‘cos it’s 10 minutes down the road for me. Fulham, lovely away day and about time we sodding well beat them in the Premier League! Liverpool - I just really enjoy Anfield and Liverpool fans, for me, have always been friendly and knowledgeable.

When are the fixtures out?

When are the fixtures out?

Tuesday 18th June at 9.00am.

 

[Gwylan]

Villa - because I've never been
Brentford - because I've only been to GP and it's just down the road from my office
Newcastle - because my nephew's just moved there and it's chance to fit in a family visit

Hope to fit in Leicester, as it's a cracking curry and Liverpool, as I've a mate who's a ST holder

 

[Bombardier]

Leeds

oh, wait……

Villa's shit, by the way.

Thought it had already been announced that Bramley Moore Dock isn't opening until 25/26 season!

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Ipswich is the main one for me. The rest I’ll just pick and choose depending on if they’re Saturday 3pm or not and if trains aren’t outrageously priced/are actually running.

It’ll be interesting to see if the loyalty point scramble is over.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Athens, Amsterdam and Rome.

Oh, hang on a minute.

To be serious, quite similar to the OP. Ipswich for sure. Had some cracking trips there in the early 90s. One of the Liverpool clubs so I can see @jackalbion having Buckie for brekky and drink in the Ship and Mitre. And Southampton, a one train trip that isn’t London, good banter, good chance of a result.

 

[Wozza]

Everton - if they’re still in existence and if it’s completed their new gaff at Bramley Moore Dock.

It's not due to open until 2025/26.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Will probably go to most but……

Tottenham - just like the fact I’ve been to their ground more times than most of the Tottenham fans I know!

Going to do Newcastle, as haven’t been for quite a long time.
Wolves - I like Molineaux.

Next season definitely not doing….
Villa - 6-1 did for me….
Everton - shit ground, dont care how nostalgic some feel…
Chelsea - cant stand them or their arrogant fans

Bummer!

Anfield IMO is the best experience available for the travelling football fan. I went last season for the first time in many years and loved the whole weekend. In terms of culture and general interest Stoke was another highlight last season though obviously won’t be on next season. Yes to Ipswich if I can get a ticket. Still haven’t been to the new Spurs ground or Brentford as the away tix sell out before they get to my level. So any three from those 4.

 

[HangletonGull]

Newcastle (again)
Man Utd
Forest ( still haven’t been there)

To be fair, Stoke wasn't expected to be on last season.
Or the season before that.

Anyway, I'll go for:
Either of the Liverpool teams (missed both of them for some reason this season and they're basically the same away day),
Ipswich if I can get a ticket (not expecting to),
Leicester, which I've been to for a gig but not for a game, and I lived there for a few months so quite like the place.

I'm not counting Forest (which I'd probably put up there with Sheffield as my top away day) because I've done it the last two seasons and I'm as certain as possible that I'll do it this one as well.

Hoping we get away games in both Cups to grounds I haven't been to before.

Only done Ipswich once. I can’t even remember what the score was but it was the game Vicente ran the length of the pitch before cutting on his right foot and putting it in the top corner

We lost, that was the only bright spot…..
