Matches "The Wrong End"......

Millwall back in the day sadly we lost 2-0 so wasnt difficult. Makes you realise how blinkered the average fan is!

Watford away, when we won 1-0 thanks to Mickey Lewis. Brother was in the Watford youth team at the time and got us tickets in the home seats. Of course Dad and I were up on our feet when Mad Dog slotted the ball home. A lot of stern looks, good job the Watford lot were pretty friendly really.

I was on the home terrace that day, late out the pub and couldn't be arsed to walk round the allotments. Went ape when Mickey scored at that end

Wonder if they still make away fans do the allotment walk...

Got thrown out of both Villa and Palace so went and paid at there end.
Cuckoo Lane v Swindon....got escorted to London Rd during first half.
Burton home seats towards their end, father in law worked for their printers and got tickets, several grounds when I had a comp off a player, back in 70s and 80s there wernt often away seats so players freinds were put in home areas.

Wolves away around 1998. It was Boxing Day. My old man got free tickets through his work. Bloke who took us even treated us to a harvester on the way home! We lost 3-1 I think.

Interesting use of the word "treated" there. Amazing how that word can easily be interchanged with the word "subjected'... ?

Harvester was considered quite high brow back then!

Only a couple, away at QPR first match of the season in old D2, can't remember when that was, 90s, I guess because I was with a mate who supported QPR. Southampton away in cup (league I think) because I lived down there. Both times I could openly support Oxford without any trouble, but wouldn't try that at Millwall.

Ah, the Old Den. Interesting would be a fair way to describe it and my only visit was when we won midweek 2-1 in November 1990 and it was cold! Steve Foster and Martin Foyle scored our goals.

The Old Den was my first away ground, 1983/4 season, we lost 2-1. Had never seen anything like it, most hostile place I've been to.

Burton away in the Conference, Gary Twigg scored I think? My uncle lives up that way and his work colleague got us tickets in the boxes, was sat a few rows behind Radio Oxford

Leeds away in the FA Cup replay in the 90s, travelled there on the local Leeds supporters bus as well. Also got ten packs of Panini stickers and found the last shiny I needed...a good day, safe to say.

Also Middlesbrough away, got tickets with my dad for an executive box but the guy in charge forgot to tell my dad it was smart clothing only...net result I had to borrow my dad's mate's chinos and a pair of light brown moccasins. I felt like an estate agent!
