Most of em, even Hull, which i think is a c*** shithole

I salute you sir. Hull = Hole, one of a shitty measure.
If you haven't had the chance and get it at any point, go to Burslem (Port Vale) and enjoy it. A close 2nd place behind Hull in the worst area I've been to watch a footy match.

As for those I want to visit, I would put Derby & Sheff Weds top of my list, plus any other decent ones that don't land on a Saturday.

I did joke to my girlfriend the other day that we could have a lol-tastic trip to Hull if she liked?!

Home: Just got as and when, though may try and squeeze in Derby as a definite

Away:
Done before and will do again: Brentford, Charlton, Millwall, Ipswich, Brighton, Reading, Wolves, Sheep (probably), QPR
Not done but will do: Bristol, Cardiff, Milton Keynes
Might do: Brum, Leeds, Wendies, Rovrum (if I'm back in Nottingham on those dates)

Hahaha oh yeah!

To be honest of all the local matches I can make, that was my least favourite because it's just shite. So not too fussed.

Loved Brentford, was my favourite away day for a long time, glad I can go back. Hope its on a sunny Bank Holiday again!

Looking forward to Loftus Road as well, proper ground that.

I will be hopefully to make Rotherham and Wednesday as local games. I couldn't afford to go to the Wednesday game this season and the allocation from Rotherham was piss poor so I missed out. I would like to go Forest. The rest I really need to wait and see about fixtures. Anything on Saturdays I struggle with due to footy, so hoping a few of the ones closer to me fall midweek.

When going to Brighton on a match day can you travel for free on the local train/bus service to the ground with your match ticket?

Moving to London in September so I'll go to all the london away games and I'll try to make it back up north for the derbies at Burnley, Blackburn, Bolton and also Hull away so I can meet up with Uni mates. don't think I'll be able to make it to Deepdale much so I might also go to Reading, Brighton and MKDons depending when they are and if I can afford it.

Don't think so. Had to get a train fro Brighton to Farmer. Cost about 4 quid though from what I remember.

Didn't go down last season but for the two trips down the season before your match ticket guaranteed you free rail travel at least. It used to be written on the ticket, obviously could have changed this season just gone mind.

Luke is probably right. We didn't even check but I'm sure we'd have heard about it!

It is free, and is an attachment on the ticket.

When we went to Brighton we parked about a mile from the ground, and got the train in free of charge.

Not a bad service.

That's a half-pint's worth down the drain, good work!

Has always been free with your ticket.

Do they even check train tickets?

Every time I've been it's been that packed the gates to the platform were open and there's that many people on those shuttles that a ticket inspector would be stupid to try and make their way through the carriages.

Won't afford every one, but there's some I'd have down as definites with the rest depending on the weekend/money.

Definitely going:
Wednesday, Brentford, Brighton, Fulham, Wolves, Bristol City, Huddersfield, Charlton, Birmingham City, Derby

If possible:
Ipswich, Forest, Preston and Hull depending when it is cause I wouldn't mind revisiting a few old places from my uni days and a couple of friends left up there.

Won't go:
Leeds - rip-off prices.
QPR - similar and crap view/travel arrangements

Rest depends on the time I suppose, just hope the ones I really want to go to aren't all bunched together. Can definitely see me going to a lot more away games than home ones this season, didn't bother with a season ticket this time round cause of that factor.

Yeah they wouldn't feasibly be able to carry out an inspection anyway. Even getting through the barriers at Brighton (if you've stopped off in the city), they rarely bother.

Education and pork!!

Sadly I've been at least 1/2 dozen times, it's a hole with a roof these days tho.
Apart from the first time when we won 4-1 I think and narrowly missed promotion, a couple more goals and we would have gone up instead of c palace :-(

I would like to go to MK Dons again, got family over there so i might end up in the home end again.
I'm also intrested in doing Cardiff, Reading (both local), Leeds (always an atmosphere when we play eachother) and QPR (just hoping for another overhead kick this time by Agard or someone) .

Three of the division's newly acquired teams I'll definitely be doing..

Preston - we haven't played them in about a decade, new ground for me
QPR - missed it two seasons ago, hopefully a Saturday fixture
Bristol City - one of the better cities to visit, haven't done it in a long while

Then will most likely do all the other London away days and a couple of random ones up north.



Also an impressive SIX teams who wear white. Only two elsewhere above non-league, I think; Swansea & Luton.
Luton play in orange xD

Did they not used to play in white? Tell me I'm not going mental. Always thought orange was their away colour.

Yes, they used to play in white when they were previously in the league. You aren't going mad!
