Correct, I was minus 3. I'm too young to appreciate what a match day atmosphere was like in 1983, all I see is dreadful football whenever I watch clips from those days, played on absolute mudbaths a lot of the time.

again, the point is being missed. League 1 football in 2009 is great isnt it. Sorry but technical ability and pristine pitches is about 500th on my list of what makes a decent day out at the football. Perhaps its just my age.

Ageing punk rockers inflicting dreadful music and poetry on fans on match days.
Perhaps. I go to a football game to watch the football. Novel idea I know, I couldn't give two monkeys about anything else.
Ermm, The Spackish?

haha yes the spackish is good. if a little offensive in these PC times.
So these random parts of a football day, in any order, what would you put where?
getting out the house for sanctioned all day drinking
getting up and down the country having a laugh
having a good shout
annoying coppers and div jobsworth stewards
taking the piss out of opposition players and fans
the shock and excitement of anything good happening on the pitch
erm admiring technical excellence
I guess (shame on me) I've never known a "great" home atmosphere. I go to the odd away game, and that's always great obviously.
I just expect it of Withdean. I was too young to appreciate the atmosphere at the Goldstone, I was generally busy kicking coke cans around down at the front and getting smacked in the face by wayward Mark Farrington shots.
Not sure, but I agree with every one.
All those things are good. Like I said, I don't have the money/time to get to as many away games as I would like.

i'm just waiting for some 22 year old who has read a book about football in the eighties to start talking about the myth that is the popularity of adidas trim trabs.
I'm sorted! See you there!
Do you know any sites for good ad-i-das trainrrs?
