Hartlepool
Your son/daughter is contemplating an away game for the first time when you've been on quite a few where basically it's a day out with your mates on the piss what advice would you give? My stepson and his mates are contemplating going to the Hartlepool - Harrogate game away and all I could think of was it's a decent game away on the piss!
 
Do it. Get yerself away lad. Look after yourself and your mates and have each others back. Don't get too pissed but enjoy it.

Don't think I'm allowed to go. My step son and his mates are thinking about going to Harrogate away when they play Hartlepool. Might be a decent away day but I'd rather go to a:emoticon-0149-no: Sunderland game. My question is (without being hypocrital) what advice would you give? :emoticon-0102-bigsm. I used to love away games more than home ones. Then I settled down......

Avoid supporters buses at all costs. Travel under your own steam

Nah, that would be my advice to your stepson mate, tell him to get himself to his first away game but look after eachother. :emoticon-0148-yes::emoticon-0148-yes:

Don’t drink and drive
 
I used to love away games. Drove to a few but got lifts or the train and it was basically a day on the piss with a match thrown in - heaven! My stepson is far too sensible for something like that <laugh>
 
Used to drive Franky Wheatley’s car to away games Hull was a good one .he had wheels that were bigger than should have been so about 23mph = 30mph
He was banned from driving
 
I’ll never forget the time I let my youngest son go away with his mates for the first time. It was Liverpool away and we received a call from the bus driver on the M62 Services that he was having to leave him there as he was pissed and had thrown up all over the bus.
Me and our lass drove down to the services only to find that they had called an ambulance which had taken him to a hospital in Manchester. They said that they had done this because he told staff that he must have been spiked, which of course was utter bollocks.
To put it mildly I was a tad angry when we eventually picked him up. He was 16 at the time.
