You’re right - it’s a matter of chance whether you bump into a decent, appreciative football fan or a complete knob. Every club has their complete twats, including us, but thankfully the vast majority of fans up and down the country are okay.
Well as featured on MOTD it was no worse than Enciso’s. Both were embarrassing and both rightly booked. I think they should also dish out retrospective bans for simulation.
We had the same experience. I've never had so many home fans just randomly come up and speak to us. Started on the train heading up and then sat opposite two Newcastle fans on way back for a while and we didn't stop chatting about football. In the station before heading back I was checking connecting train times on my phone while my mate was in the loo. A couple of Geordies again just randomly came up and asked me what time we'd started in the morning and wished us well for the journey home. All genuine lovely people.
Plus a selfie with Bloom and a bit of sightseeing in the morning.They were a darn sight better than the random drunk lady who got on at York after a hen do, sat next to me, cadged a beer, sent my son to the buffet car for a sandwich and offered sexual favours to the train guard if he didn't penalise her for having a ticket for a different train. Luckily she got off at newark
We did it in the stands too
More of this please! At least while the injuries continue.
What did the guard do
I’ve just watched our clip on MOTD and was amused by the references to the Olympics and the Paraguayan diving team.
Where was barco ?
Not sure we saw him after newarkWhat did the guard do
She definitely sounded like she was too difficult to handle!Not sure we saw him after newark
Actually he seemed to mark it down in the too difficult to handle column (fnar fnar) and just kept walking past
One more draw (at least) could be crucial in staying above our 'friends' up the road.
Probably injured….
With the train guard?
The commentary team were embarrassing in their bias all game, at the start of the second half “we are just waiting for Newcastle to take control of the game again” was just one of many comments that are unacceptable from commentators who should just be commentating.
