    We're impressed. There's a touch of class about you, like the Denmark kit in 1986.
    You scored 8 out of 10

    Like you Stan just the 5/10.

    The last one is, of course, the easy one!

    I understand that I may be seeing you on Monday for a pint?

    Absolutely mate, I hope to be at the C&S by 1.00.

    And having paid £35.50 including booking fee to see ****ing Huddersfield nothing less than Dutch total football c 1974 and a 6-0 win will satisfy me.

    I suggest we all wear our Christmas jumpers. Just been ordered to put mine on, and it has so many flashing lights on it there is a risk of triggering epileptic fits. Might put the Huddersfield keeper off too.

    Leicester City season ticket holders pay £38 a month. And, you may have noticed, they are in the Premier League and doing quite well. I think I could have got this a bit cheaper if I had booked in the members window, but as always I forgot. All this **** drives the spontaneity out of everything.

    And i bet they don't even have the skin taken off their knees for paying such a cheap amount........

    TBH for this type of game it should be around £20 for adults and a tenner for kids to encourage the new generation of supporter.....

    7/10 for me. Some of those questions were of University Challenge difficult. How would you know the Scottish one or who knocked Denmark out in 1986?

    That's a shocking amount of money to pay to watch QPR v Huddersfield in the Championship. I've just done a little research. A similar club to us in terms of playing in the capital, in the 2nd division and having a similar sized stadium is FC Union Berlin. Their most expensive full-price ticket in the main stand was €39 (£28.68.) All other areas of the ground are €14, €15 & €16 ( Standing though, I think. ) Which works out at an average of £11.

    The most expensive ticket I could find for QPR v Hudd's is £37 which is £40.50 in real terms when you add on the booking fee.

    I've posted on this before Nines, the ticket prices in Europe are largely much cheaper than here. €21 to sit with the ultras in the San Siro for AC Milan. A season ticket at Bayern is just over €100 for standing.

    Union Berlin is a special club though, firmly left wing in the old East Berlin, stadium in a forest, a less well known St. Pauli. The fans helped rebuild the stadium a few years ago, and it is mostly standing. But my bond with Hertha Berlin was formed before I really heard about Union, because some of their fans bought me beer.

    I watched Hertha Berlin play Saint Patricks Athletic in the Europa League in the RDS a few years ago. I remember the St Pats fans singing to Andre Voronin (blonde ex Liverpool with a pony tail), "you're just a fat Paris Hilton". Made me laugh. Merry Christmas lads.

    As I had a quick gander at Union Berlin on the web I noticed an article about their fans building their stadium. I do recall someone posting about this on here and thought it was you.
    They do seem to have an avid following from England/UK/Eire and I can see why. They appeal to me also. But if the Hertha fans bought you beer then that's the deal breaker, and certainly one that you can't go back on.
