  • Wasn’t it? 3,300 or so, amazing. Me and the good lady set off on our pub bikes at midday for a few beers and rolled up at about 2.30, snuck a few cans of Dark Star and 4 litres of water in with us and drank the lot by half time, it was steaming. I didn’t expect to be so nervous tbh, but the equaliser settles the nerves. Should have won it in normal time, I thought. But that winning spot kick was worth the wait. Glad you made the effort!

  • I'm a Fulham fan so have had the highs and the crushing lows, I celebrated just the same as when Fulham beat Juve, might have been a tear but it could have been the sinusitis...Hate penalties and never watched them. Been to far more Hamlet games over the last 5/6 years then Fulham ones. I get that same buzz go to the Hamlet that I did when I first started going to any match way back when.

  • Newcastle fan (dad is a Geordie), went to 4 matches in Championship last season (3 away, 1 home) but the costs of club membership vs tickets you get access to/PL & Sky mangling fixture list/shit summer transfer window/perpetual fear Benitez will pack it all in Keegan-style meant I didn't renew this year, so next-to-no chance of getting tickets for any away games that are on a normal day (Saturday 3pm) and travel costs are bullshit. Funnily enough, a friend of a friend who I met recently goes to a lot of games and he kindly sorted me a ticket for Spurs tonight.

    TL;DR, like you and @jj72 DHFC does the job for me. Initially was something I went to as my closest football team when I moved to Camberwell in 2014 but then kept going because, as is well advertised, it's mint.

    Wondered early in the game how I'd feel if they won, would it matter as much as a Newcastle promotion etc, but I forgot all that pretty quickly and just had a blast, along with everyone else.
