    What was your first away game?
    just a fun thread , what was the first away game you ever went to?

    my first away game i went to was away at Blackburn 2006 , i would have been 13 we won 1-0 through Ivan Campo header and Blackburn missed two penalties in the last 5 minutes so overall it was good.

    Wigan last year. Won 2-1, VDV inside three minutes, Bale on 23 and Diamé just inside the start of the second half.

    Sheffield Wednesday away in 1997. We won 0-1 at Hillsborough. I can't actually remember it though, I would have only been 5! My next away game is the one I can remember - 11th September 1999 - we lost 2-0 at Sunderland (Stadium of Light).

    Since then I have been to many away games. Love them. So much better than home games.

    Luton Town back in May 1992, we lost 2-0 and I remember Ian Onley the Villa centre forward at the time getting a load of abuse of us for basically doing nothing the whole game, I also vaguely remmeber going underneath someone's cottage to get to the away end.

    Well we're back (albeit at level 10) :cool:

    Who do you support? First away game for me I think would have been Cambridge United in 2004.

    Away vs Blackburn.. Yesterday.

    Lost 2-1, but we were massively on top and the ref was genuinely terrible..

    Fulham v Chelsea in ~2006, first time Fulham had beaten us in absolutely ages. Followed by a pitch invasion by Fulham fans, with Chelsea fans then running on and scaring them all off and running for their lives. Had to ask my dad if away matches are always like that!

    First away game (and my first ever football match) was Portsmouth v Sheffield United in April, 1996. The Blades won 2-1 and I don't remember much apart from not being impressed at having to stand up for so long as a 9 year old behind the goal in the away end!

    That was over 16 years ago and now I've been to over 70 old and new grounds since then.

    You support Leicester as well? I went to Ewood Park on Saturday (my second visit to Blackburn) and I thought we deserved too win, honestly. We create so many chances but fail to score, it's frustrating.

    Yup, I'm a Fox

    Yeah, we definitely shoulda won on Sat. Ref was useless, too... =/. Hopefully we can get back to winning ways against Blackpool and redeem ourselves after last night :crossedf:

    Nice one, I am as well (obviously).

    I didn't go last night, but I'm sure we can turn it around ahead of Holloway's visit. Hope we can beat him, especially.
