Watching the Albion:
Wolves away 90/91. We came back from 2-1 down to win 3-2, the natives were very restless.
Hospitality? Do slightly crusty crunchy cheese and pickle sandwiches count?
Piped noise, brown smoked glass and no outside seats. Pretty terrible really.
Non Albion:
Old Trafford as a guest through my dad's business. My dad was in the main stand with his opposite number and I was in the Stretford End hospitality with his son for a ****ing dull 1-0 (Irwin penalty greeted by a chorus of "it's about effing time" by the locals). Think I managed my own body weight in bottles of Becks.
The Boleyn Ground: Got to meet Julian Dicks and Slavan Bilich post match. All a bit jellied eels and ale tbh.
Wembley: Bobby Moore club for work - simply excellent for hospitality but the football really does play second fiddle. Client's love it though.
Twickenham: again for work probably has the civilised edge to it over football because of no draconian laws around booze and ball watching but looking a bit tired now.
The Emirates: again through work as guests of clients who have box number one next to the directors box.
Excellent food/service/etc but makes the football experience way too sterile IMO.
Lords: Pretty much faultless as you'd expect.
Sometimes right, sometimes wrong but ALWAYS certain
