Just thinking today that if today's game was played at The Dell then it may well have been called off due to a waterlogged pitch.
If not, and before cover was put over the Milton and Archers Rd ends, I would now be walking up to catch a bus into town, walk in the rain from the bus station, queue up for 3/4hr to bag a spot at the front of the Chocolate Box and huddle in the pouring rain. for 90 mins
Reverse the travel arrangements for the return trip home and arrive home to a largely unheated house, soaking wet but thinking it was all worth while if we won.
Compare this to my expected experience today ie drive to within relatively close proximity to the stadium, no queuing, dry seat etc etc
The only downside will be the feeling of disappointed if we dont get a win. |  | | |  |

Oh for the good old days! You forgot to mention queuing for the bogs at half time with everyone pissing into that twenty-five foot long urinal, getting the splash back from some old fart losing control of his todger, all the while inhaling the steamy vapours of gallons of various skinheads’ skanky piss….!
Lovely…  |  |

Luxury !!!!
I would walk to town we couldnt afford buses
I would queue for 2 hours in the pouring rain even if it was sunny, have to walk home the long way because the paths were flooded and then sleep in a shed in the back garden because the house was so cold.
They dont realise they have got it made these days |  |

A shed? We could only dream of sleeping in a shed. We slept in the ditch (if we were lucky). |  | | |

Standing under The West Stand and getting covered with dust when we scored from those above stamping their feet. |  | | |

Yes that was brilliant. Bet he was thinking “here it is! THIS is my George Medal moment!”
Actually, he was being very brave as he genuinely thought the guy had a gun. Apparently (well, according to someone on here ITK ) he got pelters from his colleagues back at the nick for years, poor slob. | |
