There’s nothing quite like an away day.
It doesn’t get better than going behind enemy lines, being completely outnumbered and watching your side pick up three points in your opponent’s back yard.
Premier League away tickets are extremely hard to come by for your usual fan.
Those that attend away matches are proper fans.
They stand for 90 minutes, sing for 90 minutes and spend thousands following their side up and down the country.

The Toon Army have witnessed their side win three times on the road this season - against Tottenham, West Ham and Sheffield United.
However, as we revealed in our article last week, Newcastle have the worst ’stadium capacity percentage’ this season.
Fans have been boycotting St James’ Park in protest against owner Mike Ashley.
No wonder their away support has been so good this season, then...
