Soo after some advice... Can't decide on whether to do Everton or Villa away?

Or as I would probably have to go on my own as no mates will come shall I just go to City at home which is my birthday weekend?

Villa away if you have never been. Good stadium, good chance of victory and probably the last time we will play them for a few seasons.

Good call. Great fans too. Friendly, and knowledgeable in the main. Difficult for me to say, as Everton is one of my favourite grounds, but the "chance of victory" should swing it. I always reckon our lot should be given the day off when we play at Goodison. Let them go shopping with their partners. Last time I remember us winning there was 1974 - and we were relegated. Anyone with a better memory?

Note FLT, I didn't mention .... shhh you know who.

Yes! In about 1991-93 maybe, we won 1-0 through a Barry Horne goal. I was working on the Wirral and staying in a travel lodge that night, so drove though the tunnel to have a look at the grounds and had forgotten we were playing there that night. I had no card back in those days and only a cheque book so they wouldn't let me buy a ticket. I listened to it on Radio Mersey or something similar.
 
I was wrong... Glen Cockerill. 1st April, 1992 (I got the period right). 24 years ago tomorrow :)
