I think it might have been better to wait for Tom Rubashow to come back to me so that they could put it up first....but he has not yet done so, and i guess it's not something that needs to be an exclusive. But it will be a good nudge if I mail him with the carbon offset ideaBalladMan said:Many thanks CAST for posting

@ChicagoAddick Shetlands must count as we already allowed the guy from Guernsey. We had to really, you could fly to Egypt for the price they were charging him.1 -
The Shetland Islands Addick told me he has an 750 mile journey each way, including a 12 hour ferry crossing!10

@BalladMan I also forgot about my brother. Now living in Ibiza, so please add him too.1

Lille must be Eurostar but we'll gloss over that I guess.
@BalladMan is the total tally currently just for the flight in? (thinking about pitching the carbon offset idea to Tom)0 -
Lille is Eurostar, but we did say we would accept alternative forms for transport earlier in the thread.PragueAddick said:Lille must be Eurostar but we'll gloss over that I guess.

The total is for flight in x number of passengers1 -
Tom R. has now replied: "I've passed it on internally"
Which is probably a bit better than it sounds.3 - Sponsored links:

I think the guy coming from the Shetlands is the man. 12 hours on a boat and then a 600 mile train ride from Aberdeen taking 7 hours 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏15

Yeah Yeah we get it... 600 mile train ride... He doesnt need to show off!!_MrDick said:I think the guy coming from the Shetlands is the man. 12 hours on a boat and then a 600 mile train ride from Aberdeen taking 7 hours 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏19 -
The aggregate mileage is now more than 200,000. Approaching the distance from earth to lunar orbit.
We may become the first football club ever to be able to say we're literally over the moon.6 -
My other half and I are coming in from San Francisco, kinda a long route with a night in NYC in the middle because of flight availability, and have to go via LA on the way home. Certainly the furthest I've ever travelled for an away game or a long weekend!12

Let me see if I can do layovers otherwise I will just add San Fran - Wembleyianwild said:My other half and I are coming in from San Francisco, kinda a long route with a night in NYC in the middle because of flight availability, and have to go via LA on the way home.

Added to map, first two legged display (hopefully the legs aren't as dull as those Wycombe games)BalladMan said:

That's ridiculous. I guess only possible if you are a) loaded so you can afford the constant flights and b) own your own company so you can get leave whenever you want it.AddicksAddict said:
Slightly off topic, but I met a Canadian Spurs season ticket holder who commuted from Canadaevery game.KBslittlesis said:
I have come to the Valley, when I was a season ticket holder, from both Delhi & Lima. On both occasions we lost 🙄🫣😩🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣CatAddick said:You lot are so precious 😂. I once did Jerusalem -> Tel Aviv -> Heathrow -> home -> Fratton -> home over about 28 hours for an AWAY league game. Crawl out of the woodwork for Wembley…
(seriously, well played and 🤞)

- Bermuda updated to 5 travelling (seriously impressive turn out)
- Murcia Added
- Geneva Added
- Updated lower info box to be smaller on mobile browsers
27 Countries now, totalling 218323 miles just to get to Wembley (all I know is Charlton's on their way... on the way, on the way)4 -
So now not only am I gutted that I haven't yet managed to secure tickets for the match, I also don't qualify as travelling from abroad, even though I am foregoing 3 days of my holiday, to travel back from Alicante and then return to Spain.
I'm not sure if things can get worse, except I know they can if I continue to be unable to secure match tickets!0 -

Did that ferry a couple of times as a child, 12 hours on the North Sea 🤢🤢🤢. I was once thrown out of my bed the waves were so big. Definitely the winner! More recent times I flew from City / Heathrow but it's bloody expensive.
No long trip for me for the final, but I did cut my Lisbon holiday short by a day which cost me £££ to make Wycombe away in the SF.2
