Southend away the season Poyet took over? I remember chanting about them going down towards the end of the game.
I also remember thinking Lee Hendrie scored a screamer and their manager calling it a fluke was just him being unbelievably bitter. Then when I saw the highlights it turned out his...
That last bit reminded me of perhaps the greatest forum post of all time. The Sunderland fan who forgot his pocket cheese

I'm really hoping you're pissed because otherwise your reading comprehension needs some serious work.
I never said life was tough, I never said I had to choose between football and anything else. Although obviously people can be 26 with kids and a mortgage so it's mental point anyway. I...
That would be a very good point if I didn’t pay for it from the age of 16 to 26 despite it costing pretty much every penny I had for the first few years. I also helped chip in towards my granddads season ticket in the last few years before he passed away as a thank you for him buying mine when I...
As I've stated in this very thread I wouldn't have been going if tickets were £250, £25, or £2.50 and I almost certainly won't be making the trip to Wembley either. I have put barely a penny in to the club since the introduction of VAR because I vehemently oppose to the experience of football...
2 angry replies to my posts and even a little angry emoji. I'm quite frankly delighted that somebody having a slightly different opinion to you gets you this worked up.
I'm also glad you've managed to vent all your anger over 'I'm surprised at the pricing of the tickets' though. It's a much...
Very true. It's a great game to get somebody hooked.
On a similar note, I have a younger siblingwho despite being part of a football mad family had absolutely no interest in football themselves. However due to a last minute emergency they ended up at the last game of our Division 2 (now Lg1)...
:correct:
I wouldn’t have gone either way, so it doesn’t effect me in the slightest. I did think it would £20 for adults and just under a tenner for kids though.
Yeah that’s fair enough, I’m probably wrong. I just think in the midst of a cost of living crisis they’ll be a few families who...
Fair enough, I’d argue the fact it’s Man United would help shift those tickets & not everybody is lucky enough to be able to either shift around plans last minute or add another expense they hadn’t budgeted for in to their month - especially when there’s a strong chance they’ll need to fork over...
Relatively short notice, against a team people expect us to steamroller, on TV, to book us a place at Wembley which will be a very pricey day out.
I very well may be wrong but I think we struggle to sell it out at £25. Obviously I’d be happy to be wrong. £55 for an adult and two kids is a fair...
If I was a Grimsby fan I’d consider us the worst possible draw. Furthest away, hardest to get to and probably the best team that doesn’t have the glamour of either Manchester team.
I suppose the only positive is it’s a good place to make a weekend of it.
