Decent game so far. Not quite the raucous atmosphere Sheffield Wednesday fans pretend to have for such occasions.
They didn’t let me in on my £1 under-16s ticket once when I was 17 but what under-16 carries ID? Hated them since. Horrible scruffy bastards.
Disgusting time to be en route to a home match. ****ing Sky **** ****s. Probably be the one match that fat Henry VIII **** wins before he’s sacked in November. ****s.
The 47 people watching the match on TV will have a nice time not getting rained on. Connecting train is cancelled already. Steve Cook injured apparently and he’s class. Local pubs are opening early and selling rolls so might treat myself to a Guinness which will probably be £7 and crap. Couple of coffees and I’ll feel better.
Last year we played them midweek after they’d had Boro away on the Saturday. Couple of blokes in the cafe who had done both by coach and left at midday for our game. Mentally ill
****ing lunatics. Can't handle coach trips at all, utterly horrendous. National express to London as far as I'll go.
Never done an official coach. Did an unofficial one to Barnsley and it was brilliant. Weed at the back, forced to have a shot, stop at a pub in some random town half an hour away before. Lost 1-0. Superb.
I did one official one as a teenager as my mum wouldn't let me go to Millwall on my own if I didn't. And then an unofficial one as an adult to Arsenal mid week and the ****s decided stopping for a 30 minute break at Fleet at 5pm was a good idea. Turned up ten minutes after kick off.
For a couple of years back in the 80s (Jock Wallace / Gordon Milne managers) me and my cousin used to be regulars on a coach run from the The Invincible pub on the Eyres Monsell, one of the more 'interesting' estates in Leicester - bloke who ran it was known as 'Afghan Paul' coz of the coat he wore - not his nationality - brilliant craic - great bunch of lads (once you got to know them) - most probably still inside...
Once got a supporters coach from Harrogate to Ipswich. Would have been quicker to travel to Australia
It was coaches that finished me off for away days, I decided Fleetwood distances wasn't fun anymore nor Tranmere on a Friday night.
