I must say, I really enjoyed my little trip to Sheffield on Saturday. Got talking to a couple of their fans in the pub before the match and found them quite friendly.
At half time, I left my ruck sack on the shelf at the back of the stand. I only realised I didn;t have it on about 85 minutes. The rucksack contained my passport, all my cards, a small amount of cash etc. To my relief, the stewards found it and brought it to the main reception. I had a tight schedule after the match to get the train to Manchester airport for my flight home so my passport was ultra important. To save me some time walking all the way around to the main stand, the stewards brought me behind the stands to bring me to the main reception to save me time in collecting the ruck sack.
For a nil-nil, I thought the match was decent enough and quite enjoyable. The friendly locals and efficient stewards made my first trip there less dull than it would have otherwise been. I seen R'ss fans travelling to Stockport and Manchester on my train and met some others who had travelled from Leeds. I met a Swedish R and 6 of us Irish R's travelled over from Ireland. All in all, an enjoyable trip on the road.
