Was her box ok?

Is this a Richard Key's type trap? I am gonna have to take the higher ground here Jamie Redknapp style :grin:


One time I skipped school to queue to buy tickets for NEwcastle away, the time we needed to win to have half a chance of making Uefa cup on the last day.
By the time I got there the queue was already stretching from the paxton road box office all the way road to the east stand and about half way along that.

Needless to say after a couple of hours of waiting tickets sold out and I went home empty handed.

I went to Upton Park for the 4-3 game, unfortunately I was with the West Ham fans so had to confine my celebrations to punching my friend very hard on the leg a few times for fear of being stabbed in the face. Also went to Stoke away last season. Think that's it as far as away games are concerned...

How dare you compare me to that hairy handed twat Keys!! I was merely enquring about snatch. I am offended that you would group me with such a sexist man. The world has gone mad, you can't even ask about fanny for fear of being branded sexist.

For the love of god.

Seen Spurs at; WHL, Old Trafford, Highbury, Maine Rd, Stamford Bridge, Roker Park, Anfield, St. James Park (Newcastle), Victoria Ground & Britannia Stadium (Stoke), Burnden Park (Bolton), Bloomfield Road, Villa Park, Goodison, Craven Cottage, Hawthorns, Molyneux, Upton Park, St. Andrews, Carrow Road, Vetch Field, City Ground (Nottm), Ninian Park, Elland Rd, Vicarage Rd, The Den, Filbert St, Turf Moor, Oakwell, Boothferry Park (Hull), Highfield Rd, Baseball Ground (Derby), Portman Rd, Ashton Gate, Fratton Park, Bramall Lane, Deepdale, Dean Court, Leeds Road (Huddersfield Town), The Dell, Boundary Park, Brunton Park, Hillsborough, Fellows Park (Walsall), Loakes Park, Vale Park, Gresty Road, Kazzam Stadium (Oxford), Plaine Moor (Torquay), Valley Parade, Ibrox Stadium, Wembley (old & new), Millenium Stadium, VVV Venlo (Holland), Eintracht Frankfurt, Olympiakos (Athens), Ajax (Olympic Stadium Amsterdam), Feyenoord Stadium (Rotterdam), San Siro.........and Hartsdown Rd (Margate).

That's about 50 English League grounds plus a few others home & abroad.

Best...always liked Molyneux, good memories of Lge cup Semi and Uefa Cup final 1st leg.

Worst...Old Trafford. Hate the place - always got my dad to pay my entrance fee and my brother the programme.

I've hitched up motorways, slept on trains & platforms (Torquay lge cup) walked miles at 4 in the morning to get home....I even kipped on the beach once, under a pile of deckchairs, at Weston-Super-Mare after a Lge cup match at Bristol City.

I once went two nights & 3 days without sleep before/after the AC Milan trip in 1972, then drove down from my house in Manchester to Southampton and back for a lge match a day or two later.

All good fun!

shamefully, i can only list Brisbane Road for our friendly against the O's a couple of seasons back for my travels to see Spurs. When i had money i had no friends to go with, now i do know people who go to away games, i'm utterly skinted almost constantly.

Oddly, the one place i'd like to go see a match in this country is Craven Cottage. The ground looks lovely, Fulham fans are all pretty groovy people and it seems like a very traditional atmosphere. Who knows, could be wrong, maybe it's just so excessively quaint it's actually hypnotised me.

Still got to do a bit of the European Tour and have somehow missed out on a trip to Elland Road :)

That's 50 including the Lane :)

What a complete waste of cash, I could be half way through paying a mortgage by now :doh:



Which stadium was/is your favourite?

Oh, shit, nearly forgot - as a nipper, '91 Charity Shield at Wembley against the Woolwich. I had a sudden flashback of us hitting the side netting at the far end from where me and my dad were sat, we all thought it had gone in and went bonkers. Watching it on the telly later, it was kinda funny seeing half the stadium erupt, then slowly die down as word spread that it hadn't gone in.

I watched us lose to Barcelona at the Nou camp in 81! i think in the Cup Winners cup when i was a lad. All i can remember is that Barca were lucky and the police were a complete nightmare especially the police dogs. It wasn't a nice experience at all.
The following year we won that cup though!

The Reebok
DW/JJB
Goodison
Villa Park
Deepdale

Hopefully Bloomfield road if I can get tickets

Wow watching spurs in the Nou Camp, I assume that is the only time we have played there? can't be too many people who can say they watched spurs there.

Who knows after we smash AC and Messi re-rapes Arsenal maybe our paths will cross once more.
