Ahhh, the White Hart. That was the scene of one of my jury service escapades a few years back, when a young Crawley Town FC footballer was in the dock charged with affray after it all kicked off in the pub, and then spilled out onto the street outside in a mass brawl, all caught on CCTV.
Lots...
Dull but winnable. Imagine all those Crawley CRETINS gutted about "what they coulda won".
As it stands, I hope they all contract gonorrhea, and 'Jay' Williams loses a toe this week in a freak gardening incident.
I've never met any of their supporters, and they can no more choose their owners than any club can.
They just weren't on my radar as a club to "hate". Too low down for me to be bothered with, I don't look out for their results. But when they made the playoffs, I watched with mild interest and...
I actually cheered them on in last seasons playoffs, and was pleased for them when they made it.
Now - I hope they get absolutely dry-humped straight back down into the Noddyland leagues and beyond. I also hope Williams receives a season-ending injury very soon into the bargain, the snide...
I'm leaning towards Minteh starting. Yes, he frustrated the hell out of me yesterday with his end product. But he was brave and direct, worked back and never stopped running. Dalot was, I thought, United's stand-out player. He dealt with Minteh extremely well. Zinchenko is obviously no mug, but...
The one bonus of an early 12.30 ko is the fact that I don't particularly feel the need to masticate before the game. I waited till afterwards when I got back to the local, and had some fabulous chips with curry sauce (£2.99).
As @Milano correctly states, 12.30 ko's brings DEATH to any atmosphere, no matter what the stadium / fixture.
No time to properly savour the buildup, no time on the grog, your morning is just spent getting to the bloody ground in time. I cuffing HATE 12.30's. Its the worst time of day for...
I did a midweek one to Fratton back in the day, probably early 90s before they'd built the stand with the roof. INCESSANT horizontal rain blowing directly into our FACES the whole night. Got back to the car, and we might as well have been swimming in the Solent.
Lost. 3-0.
Fact is, Manchester United is the biggest DICKHEAD magnet in the country.
Do I hate them ? Yeah, a bit. I just f*cking LOVE it when they lose. Inject it into my veins.
Not sure about that. If you're reliant on using a lift, then it would be an obvious hazard in the case of a fire if the stand needed to be evacuated. Maybe they made an exception for your injury, but I can't see it being policy if mass numbers of wobbly crusties (and you DO see them hobbling up...
