I go to football matches alone quite often. In many ways I prefer it.

Went to Orient this season on the supporters coach, on my own. Wasn't too bad (though I was sat next to a grumpy fatty). Kept drifting off only for Iris to come round for one reason or another and wake me up. "Scratch card?", "driver's tip", etc etc. I met up with various people there though.

I go to home games alone sometimes,I quite like watching the game on my own because I can ignore stuff like "sing up for the lads" and stand around scowling at people.Ive gone away on my own a few times but I generally bump into someone I know at some point.

I always seem to end up coming home from away games in London on my own,usually pissed up and dead brave.I can either be found winding up other clubs fans in the Buffet Car or trying to rubbishly chat up some poor poor woman in First Class

I drove to Southampton on my own this season, still bumped into someone I knew when I got to the ground. I don't think it's something I would do too often but I think the result made it a good night out.

Fell asleep on that once after a QPR game and ended up in Chippenham. Quite often go away on my own but you usually meet some in the pub or ground that you know

Going to a game on your tod would be awful, surely??? Especially away? But i guess it's a case of whatever floats your boat. I have an ST next to two mates, so all's gravy ![Cool](//thetownend.com/Smileys/tefsmile/cool.gif)

alright Romeo, its not 1998 any more so "its all gravy" shouldn't really be aired.
I used to drive all over the country to away matches when I had a reliable motor a couple of years back. Nothing like a nice drive to Bury/Torquay/Yeovil. Its not a hassle if you enjoy the driving

Don't you want Tamworth, Luton, and the Cloak and Dagger FC?

I've driven to a few away days on my own, last season went to Aldershot and Hereford on me jack, but met up with people there.
The last game I can remember watching on my own was the Play-off final V Leicester. I'd just moved away from Swindon and bought my ticket on my own. Didn't matter though, as everyone around me was as excited as I was!

I've been on my own for most of the last 2 seasons as mates have decided they can't be doing with paying money to watch football when they can watch Premier League on the telly in the pub and drink beer at the same time. Have a season ticket on half way in the South Stand but never sit in my seat. Usually go and sit towards the Townend as it's not as far to walk. Usually fine to find a seat unless we play Norwich or Leeds and I have to sit on the concrete ledge at the back of the stand and look grumpy.
Never been away on my own though (only do 3 or 4 a season). Mates seem to be perfectly happy to pay the £100+ for an away game.
