Hi all,
I don’t post much anymore, and I don’t go to as many away games as I used to, life has kind of taken over, like it does with many people.
I do have a few observations to share though, and I wondered if others feel the same.
Firstly, I don’t have a lot of away points, I don’t begrudge those with more than me, well done. You’ve earned these by going to all the places.
But why is it now the first comment in a conversation?
“Alright mate, my names ****, we got the 7am train and have been in the pub since 9am… so, how many away points you on then?”
Very strange, you do know being a fan is not a competition? You don’t have to prove you deserve to be here more than me, and yeah, I didn’t go to Shrewsbury or Morecambe. I would have done but the gave us about 7 tickets. I just didn’t get to go…
Also, people now tell you how long they’ve been going, without being asked.
And although I could go on, I won’t as my wife is expecting us to go out for the day as a penance for me going out yesterday, I do have one more observation.
I don’t know much about drugs and drug use, but if I had paid £30 for a match ticket, and all the travel costs etc, what does pushing a lot of white powder up your nose do? I saw it first hand during the game, and it baffled me, especially when said person then got confused and nearly cheered a Southampton attempt…
Sorry, old man nowadays. Getting all a bit too grumpy I guess.
Had a great day though, nearly lost my glasses in the celebrations, and had about 10 people massage me to say they had spotted me on the telly.
Uppa Towen.
