Cheshire Cat
The most curious thing..
Not being there to witness it.
I enjoyed the 3 annoying little pricks who were chanting Hughton out! as they disappeared out of the ground after the 3rd went in.
Only to reappear after Duffy scored, chanting come on Brighton!
It was all dreadful.
Couldn't get on the train at Hove as it was full (and believe me I know how to elbow my way on, normally!).
So we drove to somewhere near another station, which I won't name for fear of giving away a decent parking spot.
I enjoyed going to the game feeling seriously quite ill the chesty cough thats been going around It wasnt going to stop me going. I was happy that the wind didnt blow into WSL this time and I was at least dry for the game. However that deteriorated into me feeling nausiously ill not just from the football I was watching. Then the cherry on the cake was returning through sheeting freezing rain on a bike, it took me four hours before i felt like I wouldnt die once I got home and warmed up and 24 hours before I felt human again. Would do again.
Aldrington Train Station.
I enjoyed the fact it was the first league game I decided to not bother going to since we moved to the Amex. As I watched it on the box I thought 'thank **** I'm not there'. Rather than leaving the Amex 5 minutes before the end like I usually do, I wandered into the kitchen and poured a glass of wine. When I got back to the sofa the game was over. My first thoughts were 'Hughton OUT!!!' And the very best thing about the game was that I soon got over it. Oh yes, I did, indeed, and emotional it was too. Hooray!
Lovely isn’t it, watching in the warm on a comfortable sofa. I’ve watched a few from home in our 2 PL seasons.
It is more-ish.....even if it is hallmark #badfan
Slippery slope, though. One step away from an arm full of heroin.....
