However “and/or” implies a singular criterion on which to judge away games. The best away days, for me, have both. Arbroath and Ayr are probably my two favourite. There's not a single all seater ground that I'd say that I look forward to visiting. I'd imagine most feel the same about coming to Hampden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally disagree re getting back to Glasgow/Edinburgh as soon as possible. The best part of being a lower league fan is visiting towns you never would and sampling some of the local pubs that you otherwise would never step foot in. You can go to big cities any time but how often can you go to a pub in Elgin that has a mural dedicated to the muppets? Which is why Clyde is an abysmal away day. By your very definition, you can visit the Muppet mural any time also. I'm sure the aforementioned pub, and its competitors, and those in every other nutjob village in the country, will find a way of staying open once the hugely busy football season with it's 1,500 (very generous guess) tourists per year ends. You're hardly advertising these places very well if your only reason for visiting them is travelling and watching Cowdenbeath. Frankly, if i owned one of these, i'd not let you in. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingo ohne Flamingo Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 My criteria for a good away day is... - Near a train station - Nearby boozers ideally with pool table, fitbaw on tv and a juke box - terracing at the ground and stands close to the pitch. This is why places like Annan, Ayr and Elgin are decent away days. I see the argument about Cowdenbeath but getting to Cowdenbeath by train from Glasgow is a pain in the arse, having to go via Edinburgh. Also whilst the terrace is decent, you’re miles from the pitch and the big fence and pillars causes a shite view. Mind you, sometimes that’s no a bad thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Elgin and Annan are class away days, and Elgin especially is a tidy wee town with decent pubs. The only downside is the distance from the train station to the town centre, but it's a minor gripe. Never actually been to Broadwood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I think Berwick's my favourite away day but its likely to be replaced by a trip to a South Aberdeen surburb or a Lanarkshire New Town. That's progress.. I've nothing particularly against Broadwood except I once tried to walk there from Croy Station, got lost, ended up going through a scheme for what seemed like ages and had to get a taxi from the town centre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firhill_Basin Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Clyde are committed to Broadwood, I know that for a fact, but you don't need me to tell you, you only have to look at things like the lounge renovations. Its not NLL who are paying for the renovations either. As far as the Colts go, they tried to basically muscle in on Broadwood when Clyde were at a crossroads of where they were going to go, not much sympathy for them, glorified boys club who had ideas above their station. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick1867 Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) On 22/04/2019 at 11:41, The man with no name said: Cliftonhill, Broadwood and Cowdenbeath definitely worst away trips in the division. Will miss Peterhead and Berwick next season. If it's Stenie and EK as well it's going to be some shit away days! Nothing wrong with Cliftonhill, plenty of pubs to crawl if you get off at Sunnyside. Wee Jimmie's is also a decent boozer in Cowden. I doubt many QP fans will miss Peterhead, atrocious record up there and we only ever see their social club (which used to have embarrassing currant bun memorabilia everywhere, thankfully not as much now) Don't mind Stennie either, the Station bar and Ochilview bar in Larbert are just fine.
