    not bad over 300 games, <ok>

    I've been going for 40 years now and only missed 1 game in that time
    so If there are 18 home games in a season,
    Not counting that there were more games per season in the old first division and second division
    also not counting Texaco Cup, Anglo Italian Cup, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, Uefa cup, Charity Shield and Away games
    forget the Reserve games, Testimonials and the friendly games

    I've been to over 720 games

    sure AB and a few others can also claim to a high score


    1 day I might try and work out how many games I've actually been to

    I've been going since 1959 and seen every game we've played home and away, I've been to every European game, every friendly, every reserve game, every junior game and also seen every training session. In all that time I've never seen us take a half decent corner so I'm not going anymore.

    I know, close season is sooooo frustrating.

    Then the games start and it gets even more frustrating.

    You'll need quite a few loyalty points.
