Weird.

Did hospitality yesterday, at the other end of the ground to the away end (Trent End i think). Well strange it was, the atmosphere is PIPED in, you could hardly hear the Albion singing and they didn't take kindly the us jumping all over the palce after the goal. Won't be doing that again.

Seemingly MM gave another EXCELLENT half time team talk too.

I went to Old Trafford for a Champs League game once (I didn't pay, trust me) and we sat in a glass box/had prawn sandwiches/the lot.

The weirdest thing was that there was a switch with which you could raise and lower the crowd noise outside.

Oh yeah -- and because we were "in sight of the pitch" we couldn't drink beer during the game. All we could do was watch some Manc scally outside in the ordinary seats take sneaky swigs from a bottle of cider he'd smuggled in.

I'm sure it was an experience not to be SNIFFED at.

Indeed, what the f*** is that about?
