You will be ok mate, things happen, it's life. I just hope your mate feels as bad as you do through it all, at least you have identified it and see it crap. Hang in there Somb, your'e a sound lad in everyway even though it's teessidemackems daft dad saying it
Surely that's good news Sombrero, you two are on talking terms and realise mistakes were made. Over the years I've had some really bad run-ins with some of my closest mates, inevitably with drink involved. But then the person who was out of order had the balls to apologise, and that made the friendship stronger. We all **** up, it's admitting to it that's the important part.
I turned up to the stadium 45 minutes early and as the club n police thought it was a good idea to close all lower north stand turnstiles ended up missing the 1st 10 minutes of the game. to make matters worse then 50 or so geordies were then allowed to pass several hundered fans waiting to get into a game which had already started and i dont condone violence or partake in violence as to.me its only a game of footy there was a few scuffles and then the police came in heavy handed arresting several safc fans before deciding to open the northstand turnstiles. this could of been avoided if they made sure the geordies had to travel by bus so that they could be all in the stadium early and therefore not causing problems before tge game. i will b complaining to bothe the police and the club about how ghis game was handled and how putting the fans in the north stand upper doesnt work which i believed last season when they announced it.
The club made a mistake when away fans were put in the South Stand & made another mistake moving them to the top of the North stand. Not saying this because I am in the Lower North Stand, I objected then and put forward other proposals regarding away fans which were totally ignored, but it was a total balls up today.
South West Corner was the place they should have been placed, not behind goal and under boxes. We all knew this
I was going to the concourse (season card holder) but a road block was set up beside the baths and i had to walk all the way around the stadium, and just made it in time, but i saw no trouble. And as apoint of interest how did the north standers get in and out!.
Absolute madness the way the police seemed hell bent on inconveniencing the home fans yesterday to look after the Mags who didn't arrive by the organised buses..They even stopped fans going through the Sheepfolds and forced them to walk round..
