Got talking to the people sat next to me at half time because i was there by myself. Told them I am from Stockton on Tees and it turns out they lived 5 minutes away in Yarm (where i grew up) and eaglescliffe. Funny old world.

Anyone else ended up sat next to an old friend or neighbour?

Also there was a guy sat a few rows in front of me who i presume was a wire fan (because of the wire shirt) who must of spent half the match facing the fans thinking he was a cheer leader. I like people trying to get the atmosphere going but surely people go to the match to watch it.

Left my 12 year old at the service station, turned round in total panic at the next junction 5 mins and as cool as a cucumber hes stood there burger in hand. What a bad dad i am, told the dragon it was character building for him.

That is indeed Bad-dad-tastic!

I kissed a fat bald man at full time, and I'm not even slightly ashamed!

Social Services will be round to see you in the morning.

PMSL

Only another 92 visits before i start to worry then.

Was that section 518, east stand by any chance? Because if not, we had a similar bloke...

There was a Wire fan not far from me who was a bit worse for wear who kept shouting "S**thelens" at one bloke who appeared to be wearing a Wigan shirt...

I think the funniest bit we had was going into a McDonalds under Hammersmith bus station at around 1 in the morning after the match, and some lads appeared signing "She Wore A Yellow Ribbon" to us

can't say.

at half time we watched a forty year old female wire fan carrying a full four pint holder back to her seat. the problem was that she had already had a skinful and couldn't remember where she was sat. by the time she had called whoever on her mobile she had spilled three and a half pints on the floor ( about £14.00) - priceless!
