Fulham away
Brentford,either Brizzles,Plymouth
Obviously away at the Manor use to be the best day out or Fratton Park (if I can actually make the ground)

I enjoyed Forest away but that was probably more because of the game (4-3 win in 2010/11) and there is something I like about Everton and Liverpool away. Any classic old style ground I really enjoy. So much more character and seem to have better atmosphere than the modern boring bowl like stadiums.

I would have loved to have gone to stadiums like Filbert Street and Maine Road, really looking forward to Fulham and Brentford this coming season.

I will always wish I'd gone to Roker Park.

Green I will always wish I'd gone to Roker Park.

Went up there in 73 I think it was, FA Cup, absolutely huge terraces, great atmosphere. We had a special train from Reading drew 1-1 , then got dicked 3-0 in the replay

Sad to see the away end at Bristol City being knocked down and redeveloped, so many good memories in that place.

5,000 odd Reading fans in 1995 perhaps the best.

How many Royals fans made the journey?

If I could have my time over again I'd try and get up there for a North East Derby, loved those big terraces when they were full.

I went to Roker Park in the 90's and saw us win 1-0, Scott Taylor goal.

We were penned into one corner, very cramped, the stewards admitted they had underestimated the away attendance. Even so, I'd say there were only 500 of us.

I was also at that 4-3 Forest away game in 2011. Good support that day, great match too

I'm not sure about 600 I think, but we were split up in the ground, I remember us scoring and there were little pockets of support going quietly mad

Away day would be Fulham closely followed by Brentford.

Favourite ground would be Villa Park and its gorgeous Archibald Leitch red brick facades.
