I was wondering what sort of distances are travelled to attend home matches by season ticket holders. I live just north of Aberystwyth and a home match is a 160 mile round trip about 5 hours travelling time. I sit in the East and I am sitting close to people from Fishguard and Haverfordwest.
It would be interesting to know what sort of distances are regularly travelled to attend home games. |  | | |  |

Porth, roughly 35 miles each way, got to allow 2 hours travelling to cater for traffic, parking, walk to stadium etc. |  | | |

Felixstowe is roughly a 600 mile round trip. I roughly attend half the home matches. Managed 4 league this season and we won 3 of them. Plus also saw 1 home cup game
My two nearest away grounds are Ipswich, only a 20 mile round trip and Norwich a 80 mile round trip Both grounds are conveniently near railway stations. | |

Carmarthen a mere 40 mins each way compared to the time and distance of the above posters. | | | |

You need to go to home games more often with a 75% win rate under your belt. |  | | |

Do you actually have a season ticket and attend roughly half the games? The travelling distance is the reason I mentioned some not renewing on the season ticket thread. Some by me are seriously considering the situation with so many games live on Sky and the easily available tickets for matches. Some travel from Aberaeron others from Tredegar and Bridgend and find it a hassle midweek with work the next day. |  | | |

We have a winner! ^^^
My mate is Wrexham born and bred, though he has now lived in Surrey for 31 years. In all that time, he has only ever missed 1 Wrexham game, home and away, league and cup. I'll be meeting up with him next week. [Post edited 12 Dec 13:31]

The 3 of us had season tickets from the season before we were promoted and for the 7 years in the Premier
We decided half way through the last season we wouldn’t be renewing due to date time changes and the 3 available for matches. This was whichever division we were in and it was easier to get tickets( it didn’t have to be against the top teams)
Did think of carrying on and breaking even by missing nearly half the games.
As it is we do travel but only when the 3 of us can make it.
Still a bonding/memory making day with my sons
Not always for the best reasons 😃
300 mile return. | | | |

Based in Sutton Coldfield and tend to go to more away games than home ones with my lad. Costs me too much on speeding tickets coming back to Swansea (220 mile round trip), the new bypass through the valleys has a camera every 20ft.
Will be at Stoke tomorrow in the pissing down rain for one of our 'local' games. | |

Our photo bloke Ant travels literally everywhere, a season ticket holder from Burton on Trent. There’s another photographer who delivers superb shots to the Indy. I’ll leave him to say where he is. There still remains a Swans stronghold in Bristol and Gloucestershire of course. | |

Only 140 mile round trip, so not too bad. |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Isn't it the case that the Swans fans travel further than any other fans based on distance to away grounds stadium to stadium multiplied by the number who traveL? | | | |

I retired in 2015 prior to that it was really difficult to travel and work when there were midweek games. The winter was hard work travelling both ways in the dark.
The weather conditions on the poor roads in Mid- Wales can be really challenging. A while ago we encountered bad snow driving down one night in winter. The family were beginning to suggest turning around but I said we would be okay and let's carry on. All that way and it was 0-0. However, it was the game when Eden Hazard gave Charlie Morgan a kicking. Everybody buzzing all the way back to Aberystwyth. | | | |

Travelled for a good 20+ years from London to the Vetch, after emmigrating, and then the Lib on a seasie...
Back then, disposable income was a thing and you could advance book cheap train tix/groupsave
It's not like that anymore and total respect to those who follow as it, Stoke arrangements aside, painfully bloody expensive... |  |
