How do you get to the match?

Well after years of flying into Liverpool or into Manchester or Birmingham to jump a train this boy is going oldschool on Thursday!!!

Its the 3 and a half hour ferry to Holyhead and a 2 and a half hour coach journey on to Liverpool. None of this 20 minute flight lark!!  And same journey again straight afterr the game (well after a bevvie or 3) So Ill set off from the house at 7am Thursday morning and 24 hours later will get back in the door!! Dying for it

How do the rest of you get to games?

Oldschool! 

Usually been either a walk down Utting Avenue straight to the ground or if I'm going for a bevvy before the game (which is usually the case because I know too many alcoholic reds) I'll jump the 14 bus down to the Cabbage.

Usually get the train into Manchester, then the train from Manchester into Liverpool Lime Street, taxi to the Cabbage for a few in there and then a walk down the road to the ground.

Hope you enjoy your trip mate. Hope we get trough to the final as well. Let have a big night on Thursday Redmen!

I walk via whichever set of roads I fancy up from Vauxhall way to the ground. Although somtimes if Im feeling lazy I'll taxi it.

I know mine is off subject but this is how I watch my blood. Without them I won't live.

I pick a bus to Sliema (Maltese place, full of british pubs and English people), go to 'Lady D' Pub, it is named for Lady Diana.
Again I catch another bus to my place.

If not I will be on the seat hoping for a good stream.

Same as Kenny, and sometimes I even give him the pleasure of my company on the bus 

27 from the bottom of Dexter St up to the ground.

Last time I went for the Benfica game I drove in the van and stayed in there for the night. Parked the van at Goodison for the match.

More recently - drive up, park in Liverpool One and then get a taxi up.

On a European night I take the train to Lime Street and walk up. No times for drink because by train barely makes it on time.

On the way back I get a lift from a few mates who live in Doncaster. Can't get a lift to the game with them as I'm usually not working in the Sheffield area unless it's a Monday or a Friday.

I go to www.lfcreds.com then click on The Kop and then finally click on the appropriate match thread .

Nah when I lived in Liverpool, used to get the 81 from Speke, get off at the Maccies on Queens Drive and walk up.

Proper missions.

I walk from County Road in Walton, through Stanley Park and either straight past the ground towards the Cabbage, or if time is not in abundance, I just go straight to the ground.

You guys who live so close to Anfield don't realise how lucky you are  

I drive up to Liverpool, stay over after the game and usually come back the next day, having a few bevvies in the Cabbage before and after the game.

Sometimes I do a bit of shopping whilst I'm up there or visit relatives.

I don't like driving back on my own in the dark after a game, it's a long way on your tod.

If I'm travelling down on the day of a game its a trek; Subway from mine to centre of Glasgow. Train from Glasgow Central to Preston, then to Lime Street. Then to a pub, then taxi or walk to the ground walk.

It's better if I'm already down as I just do what I'm told by me dad, usually a taxi because we are lazy.

But i'm driving down for Thursday staying at my uncles and going back up on Friday. First exam on Saturday 9am...

Oh my god- I would love to be able to walk down the road!

3 hour drive up the m6- stop at kfc on the way- park by some field- walk about a mile to the stadium- 90mins of footie- 3 hour drive home!
Usually with my Dad, 2 brothers and brothers boss.

Will be there Thursday & Sunday this week- good thing i just got paid!  Come onnnn!

Loved the come onnn bit! Made me laugh that. Reckon it doesn't matter where you come from or how far your journey may be, the mission to the ground will always make you think of the words 'come on!!'

stop at kfc on the way

Funnily enough, if Im feeling peckish I often nip to KFC before the game for a 3 piece variety meal, although it adds about half an hour onto my walking time going to the city centre. Worth it though.

15min drive to goodison, park in a car park i have a season ticket for, walk across the park, im there.

3 hr drive up. abandon the car on sheil rd, just before all the scallies. then either walk, or if I am late, jump a taxi.

Get the 60 then walk up Utting av.

A lift off the other half. If I come straight from work I'll get the bus.

The amount of locals replying to this is ridiculous. Wheres all the Irish Norwegians and Asians!!  Evertonians beliefs shattered

I know, what's going on!

Bus 27 from the bus stop along Upper Warwick Street, next to the Royal Oak Pub.

Decisions, decisions.

Taxi or bus depending on how flush I am!

Haven't done old school in a while Brian, how much is nowadays?

€66 return on the boat not sure what the coach is but me mate says the ferry company are robbing me its usually €35

That's not bad at all compared to years ago, it would cost you over a €100 and that's without beer money. Takes a lot out of you but its worth it really. Enjoy the trip pal.

Def flying next time again!

Last time i was over, i left the house at quarter to 4 in the morning and got home at nearly 10 the next morning! Got a lift to belfast, bus down to dublin, boat to holyhead, then bus up to liverpool! And then the same crappy journey again home!

Although everything only cost me 79 quid (ticket included) so the travelling was a small price to pay! Saying that il never do it again

Well i'll be in bristol in September so hopefully il get tickets to Villa game or Birmingham game or both

but:

Living so far away, its either stream or down the local LFC pub with all the local boozers, screaming get rafa out, Lucas is dog shiiite every game

10 min train journey from waterloo to sandhills then get the soccerbus from sandhills up to stanley park then walk up to the ground, takes about 30 mins in all and £3.30 for a saveaway ticket 

half an hour drive, abandon the car on florence av. and meet the rest of me mates in the Harry before the game.

Dependin on the result the car has been left on florence av for a few days before now!!

Usually get dropped off at the Mons and walk from there. If it's busy that is.

If i leave earlier, i get out at Stanley Park and walk from there.

When i get round to going that is.

Train to Lime Street
Few pints down before getting the soccerbus to Anfield.
On way back, soccerbus back to Lime Street then train back home from there.

How long is the walk from Anfield to Lime Street? Last time someone said follow the crowd, but the Anfield crowd were doing all sorts of direction after the game .

haha got abit excited writing that!

Plane trip from Brisbane , Australia to Heathrow airport London . Car from Heathrow to Cardiff , Wales . Stay in Wales for a few weeks . Bus from Cardiff to Birmingham , change to another bus to go Castleford to watch Cas play Wigan in rugby league , stay overnight . Bus from Castleford back to London . Next day train from London back up to Liverpool .

Not sure how many miles that covers , but to see my first Premier League match live between my beloved Arsenal and another team that i respect and admire in Liverpool . At a ground that i have wanted to visit since i was a boy . To be at Anfield and hear YNWA with my own ears , to see Arshavin bang in his fourth in the 89th minute before Benayoun grabs his 2nd in the 94th minute for an amazing 4 - 4 draw .

Was it worth it ?

Too fucken right it was 

I ride my Camel.

Your only 10 miles from me, right mission it is. But worth it every time.

4 and a half hours???

Jesus i thought i had it bad- 3 hours away.

Twenty minute drive from the sunny dingle

Jealous!

But how do you get to the game? 

Ha Ha Brian, how did you know my pet name for the other half

Twenty minute drive from the sunny dingle

Bollocks.

Cars in the dingle don't have any tyers. Better yet, they don't have cars down there. They're still travelling by horse and cart - wheelless carts an all.

2 hour bus journey to Dublin.
Ferry to Holyhead.
Bus up to Liverpool.

10 hours traveling each way a few weeks ago!!
I usually fly.

Never said my car mate me and the lads take the short walk to the posher aigburth road and see if there's any Montego doors we can bend back.

Have to get up to Eggy Vale for a decent car mate.

Tomorrow three of us will set off about 7 and hopefully avoid all them fckin speed cameras they have set up along my chosen route.

Most of the time I get the bus,takes about 25mins and saves me looking for a parking speck and besides I can have a few scoop's,also the wife drops me off for the Monday or midweek games she's a darlin' luv her and she will drop me tomorrow at the watering hole.

Your only 10 miles from me, right mission it is. But worth it every time.

Maybe we should buddy up on a few games...make a party of it...
