I'm beginning to think I'm spoiling away games. City away games I've been to this season: Leeds (L 4-1) Donny (D 1-1) Barnsley (L 2-1) 1 point from 9. Scored 3, conceded 7. City away games I've missed this season: Ipswich (W 1-0) P'Boro (W 1-0) Bristol City (D 1-1) Brighton (D 0-0) Forest (W 1-0) 11 points from 15. Scored 4, conceded 1. Apologies to fellow tigers for spoiling last night's result, when the stats so clearly show it wasn't going to end well if I went. I'll stick to the radio from now on
When I first came up to Aberdeen I was saying to people I worked with that I missed watching footy on a Saturday afternoon, so one guy said I could join him to the matches. The first 4 games I went to the Dons didn't lose, but they did win either, so the guy was complaining to me that since I started watching, Aberdeen had stopped winning, so would I not go anymore. I agree as the football was not worth watching anyhow, and I started to watch park games to satisfy my craving for watching live football. After stopping Aberdeen started to lose, and after 4 games of losing he begged me to start going again. I guess the morale is, not all that happens that seems bad is bad, so take what you get with thanks, and keeping going, as it could be worse.
I think it would be fair if you stayed in a nominated room in your house for the rest of your life and never left it. Not exactly like a Joseph Fritzel scenario as there won't be a physical presence stopping you from leaving, but instead a mental torture situation (just imagine every member of the city 606 board willing you to remain in that room and never attend another away game). When we're back in the premier league im sure you'll think it was worth it.
You been watching too much Derren Brown ? Shazam! That reference may be about the wrong character but I'm sticking with it .
