An expensive evening out

I don't regret it, but I wish it felt like it was worth it. . . . I don't mind losing, it's the manner of the defeat.

Had a lovely feed up prior to kick-off, and didn't get wet.

Which was nice.

Once all the tourists and City fans left I had a lovely little time as gallows humour descended on my section of the North Stand.

Well done to those that turned up (shouldn’t need to say this sadly) and those who gave spare tickets away to those who would enjoy it with them of course. But especially well done to those who sang the great escape for 15 mins at the end and then clapped the lads off. Loyal supporters

I hope we have video footage of these individuals so that they can receive treatment.

Wish I hadn't gone to be honest. But at least I stuck it out to the final whistle. Enjoyed being part of the Withdean 6,000 at the end.

East Upper E3F is turning into an away end. Gone are the days in the back 4 rows when we knew everybody, we are down to 10 in the back row (best seats in the house). In front of us last night was a mix of tourists, nearly all of whom had purchased a half/half scarf with the City bit showing and Albion bit hidden, or a few City fans who, all credit to them, sat very quietly. Sadly their phone had the City crest on the home screen so gave it away. I have no problem with these kind of fans who keep quiet.
But the best bit, I was sat next to two Albion Ladies players.

Also I was very proud to see all 4 sides of the ground, home and away honouring the achievements of Russ "Hardest Geezer" Cook

To sink in and make the most of the good times, you've got to sink in the hard times too

The 'limbs' for our injury time free kick made it all worth while.

I'm thinking of getting celebratory t-shirts print for those that witnessed it.

Sadly I'm having trouble finding a supplier who'll only do that minimum number I require.

I think tomorrow could be the worst atmosphere and earliest emptying of the season, sadly.
