Northampton Town Vs Wycombe Wanderers
Matchday 67 took us to Northampton Town’s ground, a journey that typically takes about 1.5 hours. However, as with all midweek evening games, there’s always a risk of heavy traffic on the motorway, which can easily turn a straightforward drive into a stressful one. To get ahead of this, I started work early and managed […]
Liverpool FC Vs Sevilla
Matchday 66 was the ground we had been eagerly waiting to finally tick off. Despite having attended this ground 44 times before, we had to restart every ground, making this visit even more special. Liverpool is our favorite club, but getting tickets is a nightmare. For the past four years, our paid membership has felt […]
Barrow Vs Crewe Alexandra
Matchday 65 took us back up to Cumbria, this time a long journey to visit Barrow. Liam was feeling a lot better today, which was positive news given the seven-hour round trip that was needed to tick Barrow off. Due to the journey, it was agreed that the driving would be shared between myself and […]
Chesterfield Vs Swindon Town
Matchday 64 took us to one of the newest clubs promoted from the National League to the Football League, making it a truly exciting venue to officially kick off the 2024-2025 season. The anticipation was palpable as we prepared for this journey, knowing that we were about to witness a historic moment for Chesterfield […]
AFC Bournemouth Vs Rayo Vallecano
Matchday 63 marked the third match in three days, and we were starting to feel the strain. Our day began bright and early as we caught a train from Sandwell & Dudley to Birmingham New Street, then boarded the 09:11 direct CrossCountry train to Bournemouth. It was a pleasant surprise to catch up with Paul, […]
Exeter City Vs Eastleigh
Matchday 62 was a long day with a long journey down to Devon. I decided to use the trains for this trip and headed on a direct train from Birmingham New Street straight to Exeter St David’s. We did have a short journey from Sandwell and Dudley beforehand and arriving about 30 minutes prior to […]
Cambridge United Vs West Bromwich Albion
Matchday 41 was a revisit to Cambridge United’s Abbey Stadium, following our disappointing visit on the 6th of February when their game against Bolton was postponed after only 8 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch. This time, we decided to complete this stadium visit during the summer to prevent any risk of it being abandoned, […]
Hull City Vs AFC Fiorentina
Matchday 61 marked the final game of our holiday, featuring a 2.5-hour drive from the West Coast of England, through the scenic Pennines, to the East Coast. Joining us once again was Mum Amanda. The majority of the journey was spent on motorways, offering beautiful views along the way. Despite encountering some traffic, we ensured […]
Fleetwood Town Vs Hearts Of Midlothian
Matchday 60 was our shortest trip while on holiday, and with Nan Jen and Grandad Steve staying overnight at a nearby hotel, they were able to join us. Our special guest, Cousin John, made it a group of six attending a game together for the first time. We decided to explore Fleetwood before the game […]
Morecambe Vs Blackburn Rovers
Matchday 59 was a short 40-minute journey from our holiday spot. As a special treat, we decided to thank Nan Jen and Grandad Steve with hospitality tickets for everything they’ve done over the past couple of years, especially with Max, our beloved black Labrador who sadly passed away recently. The day began with me cooking […]
