Yeah, closest ive come is this season.

twice we played on the same day, midweek games in wales, low print runs, postponements, most games sell out.

hard to contact some clubs.

i'm 2 off this seasons

but yeah, it is really hard.

luckily for me other tranmere fans picked up the ones on the same day that i didn't go to.



how do you obtain yours ?

Probably the same as you.
Lots and lots of emails and phone calls to clubs everywhere.
Sometimes I have gone to a ground bought progs and then gone home again as I wasn't able to stay for the match. (sad eh!)
Pain in the ass, but I not only get them for myself but have to try and get others for the club to sell to supporters as well.

Ive recently been made redundant so have been to all the away games but I didnt go to the home games.

First team home friendly games do nothing for me. They are just a exercise in gaining fitness.

Give me a youth away friendly game anytime. These kids try their heart out.

I know what you mean. I didn't bother with our home games either. Best one for me was a trip down memory lane to watch us play in Bath. A ground we called home for 10 years in the 80's/90's. Great fun even though we lost.

Have fond memories of Bath myself.

It was my middle game in a three games in a day effort.

Setting off from Oldham at 5am on a Bank holiday monday about 1986 Exeter v Wolves at 11am - Bristol Rovers v Brentford 3pm then Crewe v Burnley 19.30. Just doable.

Guess Ive always been football crazy!!
