The Premier League's new app helps you enjoy a wet Wednesday night in Stoke

Old football folklore states that a super-talented and skillful overseas player hasn't earned his stripes until he's performed on a cold, wet and windy Wednesday night in Stoke. Those achievements would be nothing without fans there to chronicle them, so the Premier League has launched a new app to ensure there's enough travelling supporters there to do just that. Available on both iOS and Android, Away Days has a simple premise: to get you to the stadium with plenty of time before kick-off. You'll get access to live travel updates, details on the best places to crash, pubs to drink in, as well as comprehensive overviews of the stadiums themselves. The Premier League has gone as far as partnering with clubs and suppliers to cut the cost of getting to the ground, while also offering money off food, drink and parking when you arrive. Good news if you're looking forward to seeing Falcao, Di Maria, Shaw, Rojo, Blind and Herrera attempt to emulate legends past at the Britannia come New Year's Day.
