I started going the aways in 2010/11 season. I hadn't really been able to go before that as I was a bit too young but a few of my mates started going and my Dad, Grandad and I each have a season ticket so I tried to build up our credits.
2010/11 - 0 Aways and managed to get 2 for that season (should of been 3 or 4 but I was new to it and not as on the ball)
I also got United away in the FA Cup Third Round.
2011/12 - 2 Aways from last season got me 6 this season on two of my cards and I managed to fuck up QPR away and one of the cards only got 5.
I also got Stoke Away, Chelsea Away + Man City Away in the league cup on my card.
2012/13 - For this season I got 13 on two of the cards and 9 on the other card.
From getting the league cup aways last season on my card I also got West Brom away.
2013/14 - For this season I got 16 on two of the cards and 9 again on the other card.
From getting the previous league cup aways I got Man United away.
In the FA Cup I also got Arsenal away from having previously got Man United away in 2010/11.
2014/15- For this season I have so far got 17(18 with Stoke) and one card with 13 aways(14 with Stoke)
I also got on the european ladder with Real Madrid Away, Ludogorets Away and Beşiktaş Away.
I got Chelsea away in the league cup from having the previous West brom + Man United game from the two previous seasons.
I also got Bolton Away, Palace Away, and Blackburn away from having Arsenal and Man United away in the FA Cup.
So it's took me 5 years to build up all that loyalty.
I will qualify for probably nearly all(depending on allocations) Prem Aways on 18 games.
I will qualify for most FA Cup aways barring a really low allocation(aka Wimbledon).
I will qualify for most Carling Cup aways barring a really low allocation.
I will qualify for most European games barring a low allocation.
The annoying one was the third card I had.
Had I managed to get 6 on that one in 2011/12 that would also be on 18 aways instead of 13(maybe 14).
It's all about taking your chances when you get the opportunity to do so. Missing out on one game can cost you 5 games as happened with me.
I do think next season will be easier to get tickets for the aways as this season a lot of the aways went quite low. The prices are getting too much and it's putting a lot of people off. Add that to the fact were not exactly playing great football.
