Recommended Posts

Today is only the 3rd time in my 35ish years of watching the whites Ive missed out on a ticket.

Others were...

City when we won the league 

Chelsea last game when the club fucked it thinking we wouldnt beat Villa.

Got in for City in the JD sports family stand. Sussed within ten mins and they moved us to main stand in wheelchair bit :D

Chelsea, watched us go down on the telly

Cant be many more folk missed out on?

Very similar stories!

Same thing happened City away.

Went in Chelsea end last game.

Bradford away in their end got threatened by some skinheads who pulled a knife out!

Fortunately sorted today

Chelsea the day Jody Morris sent us down, ended up in the Shed… Witton Albion in the cup, jumped the turnstiles, Wolves away FA cup travelled without one and Ju Darby gave me his. And lock out at Elland road v Newcastle in 76…. That one hurt. 🤣

I got really lucky for City away. I was supplying the club with printers at the time and was friendly with the bloke in the ticket office.

Managed to get the club a free printer “by accident” and in return got 2 tickets for the game.

A wonderful night taking the piss out of the Kippax.

Thing is folk who went yesterday had a day out on the beer and saw 2 late goals to win us the match, both goals scored in front of our fans on a terrace.

I did not get a ticket but was lucky enough to get to go to Mother in laws to pick her up so she can stay here for a couple of days. 
 

So think I was the winner here. Although she did forget her slippers so we had a seemingly endless panic about that despite our lass saying 'I have some you can wear'
