Trip to the UK at the start of the football season.............

[Liverpooldawg]

Left Liverpool today after spending a couple of days. Wasn't expecting much but it was a cool city with a lot of great history.

I've only been once, and was just passing through on a cruise. I had to choose between Liverpool and Chester as the shore excursion. I chose Chester to see the Roman ruins there. I had never seen anything Roman at the time. From what I saw of Liverpool it looked awesome. If Liverpool had had a home game when I could have made it on this trip I'd be there. My son tried. On his way back through London the Reds are at Watford in the London exurbs. Watford has one of the smallest stadiums in the EPL and it's a HARD sellout. There wasn't even anything on the re-sale sites. He is looking at going to a game at Brentford, a Championship side.

Have you tried to contact the club? Sometimes clubs will work with visitors from overseas to get them tickets, even to away matches.

Never tried that. We are set now though, train tickets and the works. I'm actually pretty excited about going to a game involving two lower league teams. Roots Hall is beinreplaced next year. It's not a big game and I think only one stand is open, I'm still excited to see it. It's the home of the club with the best record in the country against Man U! 100%! It's only 1-0 but it was within the last 15 years.
