wish you were there

I had the chance to get a ticket, but decided not to as its a TREK and I'd have had real difficulties getting to work the next morning.

f*** it, I should've taken the day off and come down. :thud:

Now all I'm hearing is how people will never forget that night and I have missed out big time.

Why did YOU miss the game?

I didn't and so glad out of interest where is a real trek back too??

 

[mattb]

Why are you glad?

Well, it's only Guildford but getting the train there at 6.30 is no fun (especially when drinking the night before).

I am glad I went!!!!!!!

Season ticket holder but in Newcastle for work and gutted about missing it.

Instead of the Withdean, I was sitting with a (small) bunch of Geordies in St. James Park watching their truly woeful team lose to Spurs.

Found a pub afterwards showing Sky, so had to watch Tony Cottee explaining what was happening with the penalties! I have to say, the result got a cheer from the pub - not just from me - and I had the real sound of Withdean down a mobile for the final one, so very memorable but still gutting to have seen Walsall, Scunthorpe etc. etc, only to miss that...

As some compensation, I saw the mighty Ottawa Senators demolish the Philadelphia Flyers 3-1. No shoot-out required.

During the Albion game itself, though, I was touring an exhibition on Nazi medical experiments at the Canadian War Museum. Sombre stuff indeed.
