I've lived in Stockton-on-Tees since 1978 which was when I got married. Since then I've always got home as often as I possibly can. Last season I managed a Season Ticket, but missed a couple of games due to holidays. I saw the whole cup run apart from Bradford (which I watched on TV in N. France whilst getting regular text updates from Mr F). This year I'm driving to Cardiff and will get to as many games as I can after that. Each home match is a 256 mile round trip. I usually stay the night at my sister's house so that I can have a few beers, which adds further to the expense.

I have to travel a whole 1 mile further round trip, so instead of losing out on potential discussion and drinking time in the boozer before the game (and so I can have that essential lie-in on a Sunday) taxis or driving and leaving the car in town is the best option for me!
But credit to all of you guys who travel for long periods on a regular basis to see the team, I know how much it annoys me going over the pennines 7 times a year before any cup or playoff games!! |

Moved from Warrington sixteen years ago and now live in a small village in the west of the Irish Republic.
Fly back for about eight or so games a season but always Saints and Wigan at home.

Florida..... the highlight of my Christmas trip each year is the Boxing Day game... which inevitably gets cancelled and they move it to the Sunday that I fly home!!

Yes, but when you're going over the Pennines to get back home for just one night it's a far better experience, believe me. |

I would let you park outside mine but I don't want my neighbours thinking I support Wigan.  |

| Quote: Dave T "Moved to Edinburgh about 14months ago.
Still have a season ticket, however this generally gets used by my dad or other family members, I only made 3 regular games last year, although made the playoffs and the big cup games.
Wouldn't be surprised if I only get 3 or 4 this year too, although I try and coincide visits home with decent matches.
Fortunately we were on TV a lot last year and are set to be again this year, and many of the pubs will put it on if you ask, so I do get to see many of the matches.'"
