Flew back from a week in Cornwall to go to the Liverpool game at the Amex in September, and then flew back to Cornwall again the next morning.

Felt like some kind of jet-setting playboy.

By the seaside in West Somerset
about three years ago, flew back from Amsterdam to see Albion at Walsall - plane was late and by the time I got there we were already two down

In Amsterdam at the moment and staying there ahead of tonight's game - wouldn't want to tempt fate :lol:

Carlise has got to be the furthest you can go as an Albion fan, from Brighton(in the English league set up). Done Carlise 0-0....Plymouth/Hartlepool doesn't even come close to Carlise. Carlise must be at least 100 miles if not more further than Plymouth and 50 or so more than Hartlepool and Newcastle if not more....Done all the mentioned by the way, some more than once.

Well travelled from Haywards Heath to Carlise to watch the Albion play on the opening day of the season a few years back. Lost 3-0, was freezing cold and a tad bit of rain. Must of looked a right twat in my shorts and t-shirt. :rolleyes:

Also travelled to Portugal for the pre season tour that the Albion did the other year.

With England all the way to warsaw in Poland for a Euro 2000 qualifier.

I drove to Hartlepool (I think November 1993) for a 2-2 draw. I left at 4.30 in the morning, dropping a friend of in Sheffield. I arrived in Hartlepool 5 minutes late, watched the game, and drove home (via Sheffield picking my mate up again).

I've never done that since....

Flew from Athens on Friday, August 5th last year just to watch the opening game against Doncaster. Then flew back to Athens on the Sunday. Well, well worth it! And I've still got my flag!

Been to Portsmouth and Brighton (from Newcastle) so probably one of them two.

Hoping that we'll get the 4 points required to take us into europe so I can improve that next season. :)

I altered my travel plans so I could make Brighton v Liverpool in October, 1981. 24 hours on a flight from Sydney to London, landing at Heathrow about 6.30am Saturday Morning. By 2pm I was in The North Stand at the Goldstone - Or the North Terrace as it became due to the roof being removed for safety reasons. As I remember it pissed down as Albion grabbed a 3-3 draw after being 3-1 down with about 10 minutes to go.
