Safe away games..

[Shinbreath]

I've been to one away game this season.. (Swindon Town) Where the atmosphere of our fans was just amazing..

I got myself and my son (my 10 year old) a season ticket at xmas and he loves coming to watch the albion but i want him to experience that atmosphere that everyone keeps talking about at away games.

Which away games would you regard as "safe" and which could be laced with a bit of trouble??...

I guess Millwall away will be lively but are there any others i need to look out for??

Ninian Park can be a bit tasty

Millwall away is about the safest you can get to be honest.

Really!!??

Is that because we aint likely to beat them at home therefore keeping them happy..??

Take him to Luton away in the Paint Pot.

Should be a good turn out, free travel, he gets in free with you (£12) and its half term. What more could you want?

Would be good for your young son to get a really good experience for his first away game watching the Albion.

Such as going to Wembley this year!! So maybe wait and see?

If that does not happen, why not take him to Millwall or Orient game and spend the morning doing some sight-seeing around London before the game?

milwall is basically a load of fat men who have had to pack in being hardmen due to old age and liver damage and all you get now is a load of kids wearing burberry hats pretending to be something they are not.

About four years ago I took my younger daughter (then aged 8) and one of her school friends to Millwall. We even walked back to Canada Water tube station afterwards. No problem at all.

No, the way it is policed and go by train.

Never any problems

The only trouble I've experienced at Millwall was having bricks thrown at us when waiting for the train to London Bridge.

Word. If you get the train you basically get seperated from the Millwall fans fromn LB station to the ground, seperate enterances etc. Never seen any trouble there.

Orient usally gets a good BHA turnout and atmosphere.

How do you get seperated from them at London Bridge as all fans get the train to South Bemondsey.

 

[Shinbreath]

Will have to check about his term time cos he goes to a private drama school (wooo, look at you!!!) But that could be a very good call !!!!!!!

And Fazz62, cheers for the suggestion...Could make it a whole day out..

Thanks so far lads !!!

I think he meant from Bermondsey to London Bridge, because the last time I went we were surrounded by Millwall fans from London Bridge to the game.

Thought they had trains for Home and away fans seperate. TBH cant remember exactly but cant remember ever seeing Millwall fans on the train to the ground

Which ever match you go and watch in London. Especially Millwall as its close.

Maybe take him here before the game??............................................
