' The Wetherspoons Man '.

[Paxton Dazo]

That bloke who wears a suit, and takes that carrier bag to every away game. Has anyone ever seen him? Apparently he hasn't missed an away game since the 1980's - Surely he has?!

Also heard he's been to every Wetherspoons in the country, including the ones in Airports, etc.

Was fast asleep, on the 0005 from Victoria last night. Had to be woken, on arrival into Brighton.

Any idea how old is he?

The famous Doc Talbot, its 40 years apparently since he missed an away game!

Unless its changed from the end of last season the only ones he hasnt done are the ones the other side of customs at airports and a couple of new ones recently.

The away game thing is true, I think.

Doc.

He once told me he wished that he had missed a game because it's been so long now that he just can't stop it.

 

[Uncle Buck]

It is 40 years this September since he missed an away game.

Once tried to help me out as a student who had just been stung by British Rail for not paying the full fare. Seemed like a nice enough guy but edging on the eccentric I would suggest?

 

[essbee]

surely he must have had flu/cold at some point in that 40 years e.g in the depths
of winter - to not make a match?

Nope, he always makes the away game.

He should be on Football Focus or something - incredible!

 

[Paxton Dazo]

He was looking very similar to that last night, actually. Fair play to him and all that, but 40 years without missing is bordering on obcessive

Does he post on here ?
Would love to know more about this guy, would be interesting if any of you NSC's that publish blogs could interview him, I'm sure he's got some great story's to tell.

 

[defrocked priest]

Not an obsession, dedication more like.

Imagine falling asleep on the train and having to be woken up, who'd do I thing like that!

I hope I won't have to do the same on the way home from Plymouth. (If it's on!)

Hopefully I won't get my head shut in a tube train door like I did last night. Ouch.

 

[Dr Q]

We've had a Wetherspoons open up here in Otley in the last few weeks, wonder if he's been to that one yet?

How on earth did you manage that you buffoon.

We were back in Shoreham by 10, caught the 17:35 from Sheffield

I got on the train and noticed a couple of my mates weren't with us so I stuck my head at the door to look for them when it shut on me. Then the driver announced stand clear train about to depart! Ted was pulling the door from the inside and a couple of lads on the platform were trying to open it from the outside. They managed to hold it enough for me to drag my head out but I hurt my ear a bit in the process. A and a couple of at London Bridge helped me overcome the shock. Back home about midnight.

The Carlisle away game next month will be his last ever away game watching us...
