Worst away days

A couple stick in my mind. 4-0 away at Derby, the game where big Joe attempted to step out the 12 yds to the penalty spot, as it couldn't be seen due to all the sand on the infamous Baseball Ground pitch. And he was proven to be right, even though he was booked for his protests! And a 4-1 (4-0?) away at Wolves (late seventies/very early 80s, I think).
Think the 0-4 at wolves was 1982 possibly Easter time ,went in a pub in Wolverhampton and it got bricked by a wolves fan in a wheelchair unsurprisingly he got recognised and nicked just up the road
We also got bricked in the police escort going down an underpass
Not one of the best away games
 
Away to Wycombe in home end. Had to stand up when they scored the only goal with a penalty otherwise would have got more minty than was already.

Just as my now Mrs was on a plane overhead going back to Oz not knowing if I'd ever see her again. 25 plus years later think she probably wish she fukin hadnt:) beat dat . . .
 
Some things stick in my mind from that day. A fat kid walking near the away section (15/16) singing a Swales song, to try to wind us up, until some blue put him headfirst into a bin. Chaos ensued.

Sure the takeover happened later that day/day after. Forward with franny badges!!

Coaches turning up with no windows after breeze blocks bein thrown off bridges at them

The blues nearly getting the gate open at the front of our section when they invaded the pitch. Seconds from disaster that…

Curle’s missed penalty ;( Great kit tho

The side section of cardiff fans, had to exit round the back of the away end. Who ever came up with that design needed their bumps feeleing…

Was like Baghdad outside after the game. Getting back to your coach was eventful, to say the least!! Welsh Granny’s fighting with men. God i miss the old days ;)
Remember it well, I didn't realise the fat kid was put into a bin. Served him right the lardy gobshite.
 
Stoke away 1996, lost 2-1 early season.
The whole stadium was giving Alan Ball pelters and he was sacked a couple of days later.
Some gobshite outside beforehand giving it the big un in front of the police.
We saw him outside the main entrance after the game and he shit it and ran off.
My mate collared Nigel Clough as he was getting on the team bus and asked him what it was like to be paid £3k a week for doing fuck all. Clough wasn't impressed as Daniel Sturridge's Uncle who played for Stoke was stood nearby pissing himself laughing.
 
Ipswich away mid 80s went with an Ipswich fan in his company car ,a battered old metro ,got a puncture on the way he proudly stated I checked the spare tyre is ok . unfortunately he forgot to take the car jack .
Eventually with a lot of help we lifted the car .Then he said I know a short cut called the Ipswich bypass ,which as the name suggests bypasses Ipswich.got to the ground 20 mins before the final whistle and the bastards still charged us full price to stand in the home end
Game finished 0-0 and we got attacked by Leicester rugby fans in a pub on the way home
 
Two away matches within 4 days at Anfield under Ball

Lost 4-0 in the league cup
Lost 6-0 in the league

To make it worse ball said he’d enjoyed it
I went to the league game, had a scouser in the car with 4 of us blues....one of the guys had driven up to the league Cup game in the week (from Bournemouth)....on the Monday morning a parking ticket for the cup game dropped through his letterbox.
Hundreds of miles for an agg 10-nil and a £60 parking fine!!!
He has posted on here in the past, and been home and away all his life, so it probably isn't even his worst away? ;)
