Greatest awayday

Quoted from GYinScuntland

Cardiff away, April 1976. Set off at midnight on a 50cc 30mph single speed Honda Novio moped. Got to Ninian Park with 10 minutes to spare escorted by a totally disbelieving motor cycle cop who I had asked directions from. Brought the illegitimate back on the train.

Man I fecking salute you ! 👏remember hitchin to Bolton early 70 s  left straight from winter gardens through the night , pre motorway travel . Two ov us prob 14/15 , got run all over Bolton . We lost I thimk but great day out .

Two amazing League Cup nights either side of Stanley Park for me.
But love an away day.

Liverpool win was the obvious away game in my time but the 6-0 win away at Boston was another stand out one for me.

Quoted from Cod Cheeks

Sheffield Utd away, it was a Tuesday night and the first game after Ivanos first loan spell.
Without him we feared the worst but the team put on a fantastic performance to win 2:1 (I think?) to go 2nd in the old first division (championship)
Not sure but I think Gary Child's got the winner?
What a night and great journey home!

I remember that one (think it was about 95/96 ish).

Here we go...  http://youtu.be/jvoOfVMQT70

It looks like the right game! Despite being titled 2003/04 9 A season spent in what is now League 1 definitely without Gary Childs!!

Presumably the person who gave me a red cross at the start of this thread doesn't have a ticket!

Quoted from Les Brechin

That's the one away game that I will always regret not being there. I was all set to go but came down with a serious bout of sickness earlier in the day.

However, the 2nd part of your post rings true as exactly the same thing happened to me on a previous visit to Turf Moor.

Les, the police told the fans to park on this big main road, must have been 60/70odd cars parked down there and when we came out every car had a ticket.
I threw mine away and never heard owt....but I was in my dads car for that game as mine was getting repaired  

Wow was at that Blades game great memories
For me
Chesterfield away a few seasons ago we won 0-1 and someone from our fans ran on the pitch to take a corner, cue police confusion and hilarious scenes (think it was a bus trip from a pub in Gy)
Chesterfield where all over us but we held on....
Then WBA away in that ace season after promotion in the late nineties to what is now championship
We played them off the park and the town fans where signing "there's only one Alan Buckley" he had been sacked by them, think final score was 1-1 or 1-0 to them
Think Lee Hughes played for them
Come on Town!!

Quoted from grimsby pete

I have enjoyed so many away days over the years,

Being in this tinpot league has given me some enjoyable away days though,

Normally the clubs and fans are a lot more friendly,

My top 5 in order are,

1, Histon

2. Ebbsfleet

3, Cambridge

4. Kettering.

5, Dartford

Histon was strangely flat (atmosphere, not the terrain!) for me, despite us winning 6-1 or whatever.  Remember a good night at Cambridge in Scott n Hurst's first or second season when we played brilliantly and we sang through most of the game.

Barnet this season has got to be the best down here that I've been to. Worst was Wembley.

Derby away on Boxing Day was one that I remember but doesnt seem to have been mentioned, especially with Town fans on a high after beating Sheff Wed in the game before.

Not realising that Oster had scored in the 2nd(?) minute and only cheering when all the players ran to the corner celebrating. Wes Parker marking Kinkladze in the middle.

Seeing Digger Soames seal it in the last minute by holding off 2 men and Coldicott sat in front of me cheering as madly as any town regular.
