Yep, I got an away season ticket (& ditched my home season ticket) for that very reason

Thetford pre-season away friendly (not inc on the AST obvs, but had family in area & took niece to her first away game)

Yeovil League Cup 1st Rd, Wes pen & Holt's hatty on debut (whilst camping down there)

Exeter (still camping)

Brentford (hotel stopover on return from camping hol)

Hartlepool (Cabbaged: we got ourselves Cabbage STs too to cut down costs of a season's worth)

MK (solo Cabbage as it was a school night for partner)

Gillingham (Cabbaged)

Carlisle (Cabbaged)

Arsenal vs Liverpool League Cup 4th Rd (birthday surprise for partner using her Arsenal mate's STs)

Stockport (Cab)

Paulton Rovers FA Cup 1st Rd (Cab)

Wycombe (Cab)

Colchester (Cab, sat with dad who's local to area; he still chuckles about the angry Col U fan who gestured to take on the 1,900 away fans after leaving the seating & stepping onto the pitch perimeter!)

Millwall (Cab)

Oldham (Cab)

Huddersfield (Cab)

Swindon (Cab)

Tranmere (Cab)

Leyton Orient (Cab)

Charlton, Nelson, BOSH! (Cab)

Bristol Rovers (Cabbage sweepstake!)

...So that's 21 away days (20 City, 19 competitive City: 17/23 league games & 2 cup*)

*could've been 3 cup as I was holding out for Wembley in the Mr Clutch Cup but we lost to Southampton in the Area Final on pens & I skipped the away there as I'd already done them in the Prem and was trying to save where I could)
