Did it a few times in the mid/late 90's early 00's and it was great fun. The likes of Bournemouth, Norwich, Cardiff, Southend away on a Tuesday night were always quality, Colchester, Lincoln, Hartlepool and teams we may not ever play again in league football in our lifetime. I love being in the Premier League but would be lying if I said I didn't miss those days.....

I did every game in Pulis' last season here, all of them in Hughes' first season and only missed 6 last season. I'll go as many as possible this season too

I do it every season as I have no other priorities. It's great as you are guaranteed not to miss the best moments which make it all worth while. You'll find yourself wondering why you bother at times though. Out of curiosity,how many seasons have you done every game for now? On my third season now. Including pre season. (Missed the USA tour)

Having recently finished uni and having a bit of a year out before I get tied down to any serious job commitments, I've been thinking about doing every game this season. I'm thinking it could well be one of the most exciting seasons to give it a go in terms of football, whilst I can use free travel for the games my mates or old man don't fancy. Anybody else thinking of doing it or has achieved this most remarkable and coveted feat in recent or not so recent times? Did it in the eighties,can remember driving back from Norwich which was a midweek fixture and my mate falling asleep at the wheel,i think we got back about 4am,and I was due at work for 5am.Happy days.

I always manage 41 or 42 a season, usually missing the odd few. The most medal-winning one was the appalling season when Chic was manager, we knew that we were for the drop, before we'd played a match and got a record not to be proud of, and I saw/suffered/the lot. Being an exile, under these conditions, was no joke and since you ask, my Southern base for 52 yrs has been the result of Bucknall born husband's career, damn him!

I did every game 2009/10 season which to be fair wasn't to bad as we won 4 away!
Bit of a grueller at times certainly watching Pulisball with games at Sunderland away 0-0 on a Monday night , Fulham away on wed night but we did it me and the ex did, which I am actually proud of.
Maybe next season I might do the lot again.

Did every match for the first 3 seasons back in the first division 79/80, 80/81 and 81/82 enjoyed most of it but the last few months of the third season became a bind, I only kept going to complete the 3 seasons and although I kept going matches after that period I was never going to go just for the sake of it again. There was no free travel in them days I used to hitch hike to a lot of the away games, surprisingly never had to wait that long for a lift from what I can remember but I doubt if I would pick anybody up off the motorway services myself, how times have changed.

Never been big into away league games. Done all the special ones in UK cup final and semi, playoff final and semis but not league games since the Macari era. Probably wish we'd gone Valencia despite the lineup and outcome. Hope to get the chance to go away to a big European club in the not too distant future now I'm not so tied up with work.
