Top THREE Albion games you didn't go to but which you had a ticket for

[Simster]

Can a mod change the word from WHICH to WISH

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Liverpool away in the FA Cup when we drew 2-2.

Ipswich at home when Dean Wilkins scored in the last minute.

And Charlton at home 7-0.

 

[Trotster]

Cant belive so many of you didnt go to hereford. Call yourself supporters...??

 

[Set of Tracksuits]

Excluding those that I couldn't realistically have gone to due to being too young (the '83 Cup run etc) I would have:

Play-off semi second leg against Swindon
1-0 home win over Chesterfield
7-1 win at Chester

 

[Easy 10]

He meant "wish" not "which" - obviously.

"When you which upon a star
"Your which is my command"
"Whiching I was Lucky"

Which is it to be ? I which Simster would make his mind up, or is that just whichful thinking ?

 

[Gilliver's Travels]

No.. I reckon he meant:-

"Top THREE Albion games you didn't go to but which you had...

- ordered tickets for, only to lose out to a bunch of prawn sarnie glory hunters?


I feel a Spurs thread coming on...

 

[saafend_seagull]

Hereford away
Chesterfield home
Milwall home (playoff semi)

It's not that obvious. It could also have made sense with certain words added to the end (e. g. 'a ticket for') - and it struck me as much more likely words could have been lost rather than that two words with different meanings and not even similar spellings had been confused (although the continuing confusion of 'have' and 'of' on this board and elsewhere is becoming ever more common - and no less stupid for the regularity of its occurrence). But there you go - I clearly need to read up on my semi-literate and learn to translate better from it into English.

*cough*

1-7

I could be wrong I didn't go did I

 

[Fluffster]

FA Cup Final (not the replay)
Hereford
Doncaster (Last game at the Goldstone)

Same here, although my excuse for the FA Cup Final was that I wasn't actually born! And too young to experience Hereford/Donny when I'm the only football fan in the family. Another I'd like to have been at was the FA Cup match at Anfield.

This has all the hallmarks of another "inert / inept" fiasco. I'm still not fully convinced this thread hasn't spun off on a disastrously irrelevent tangent.

 

[Bobby's Gull]

FA Cup final, wasn't even born.
Spurs away this season. I'm NOT MOANING.
Chesterfield when we won the third division title. Not the same listening on the radio.

But most threads are so boring in their original conception, we'd be lost without the disastrously irrelevant.

 

[bhafc99]

The Liverpool 2-2 Cup game.
The Spurs cup game the other week.
Newcastle 1979 (was too young though…)

[Kaney]

I missed West Ham Away this season, f***ing lorry on M25

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Oh God, I've missed every big game ever for Brighton

FA Cup '83 run all, 1991 play-offs all, 2004 play-offs all, promotion v Plymouth, championship v Chesterfield, Hereford, Doncaster, Orient 4-4, Chester 7-1, Mansfield 6-0, Wendy wonder v Ipswich, every game this season.

Only biggish games - Palace 0-5 (jeeesus), Man Utd 1993 FA Cup, Portsmouth FA Cup mid 1990's, Port Vale and Shrewsbury promotion parties, , Grimsby away, Leicester league cup 1994 home and away, Orient away 2001-ish (we won 2-1 anyway), Fans United day and a few others. Its not fair.

 

[pasty]

Newcastle away '79 promotion game - Still to this day can't recall why I didn't go - my brother went and I always went to footy with him

Cup final '83 first game - Do know why I wasn't at this one. I had a ticket but my of an RAF Sergeant would not let me have the day's leave.

Sgt Kenneth Woods - If ever I find you...........

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Cannae believe that no one's mentioned the first leg play-off game at the Goldstone 1990 v Millwall - "You wouldn't have got a bet on this scoreline at half time"
