Taking my mrs to her first Brighton game (taking my wife up the Amex)

[Soulman]

With the Albion, at least she should be satisfied with a slow, patient buildup from the back rather than simply smashing it straight up the middle.

However after all that she might be unhappy with the messy finishing and where it ends up.

A damp pitch, a sliding tackle, fast delivery, and the ball is firmly in the net.

Going to an Albion game is an essential part of the initiation for any relationship. Many years ago I took a young lady up the North Stand at the Goldstone. We hadn't been together very long and could easily have been a deal breaker. So I was impressed when she said how much she liked it. Suffice to say we are still together. Ok she isn't a regular at the footie but I do like to surprise her from time to time. Mind you I was gobsmacked when she suddenly asks for it. Last week I thought she was teasing me but no she said 'get tickets for Ipswich next week' - yet the game is on her birthday! What a girl. I wonder what I will have to do to make that up to her?

I agree, it's cost me £28! Ffs!

You could've got her a decent ironing board in the Argos sale for that.

In the tradition of NSC, shouldn't this thread be referring to taking your 'wife up the Amex'? Poor show.

To be even more accurate,

'Taking my virgin wife up the Amex'

Fnarr, fnarr....

took my wife and she now has a season ticket - result! Get to go to every home game plus a fair few away from home

she spends most of the time watching and commenting on the crowd's antics but who cares?!

COmments like this make me so happy to be single.

Re (taking my wife up the Amex)

We have all done that.

Going to the footie is the only respite I get from mine!
