Nice to see an old friend at the game today
No names, but I hope you enjoyed it and come back again soon.
We may not agree on much, :hehe: but for me that's not a problem.

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
Nice to see many happy City fans there today, and our loyal owner.

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
Shame the pleasenteries were not extended all around the ground.
Got into a scrap in our seats, and the fat **** with the tits in the row in front wasn't so brave when my mate fronted him up. Loser.

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
Hope longstanding fans who packed it in start returning. Will be nice to have them back.

I know we have had our differences in the past, but how did you get yourself in that situation?
Hope you enjoyed the game and you come more often to the stadium during the season.

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
The queues outside the canton stand gate 4 before kick off was mental. At 2.55 there must have been 1000 people waiting to get in but no queues at gates 3 and 5, we were shouting to let us in through the other gates and finally at about 3.10 they saw sense and allowed this to happen, fecking nuts.

You are better of waiting till after the game and going to a proper pub for some proper beer instead of drinking that over priced piss they serve at CCS. If Brighton can serve real ale (and have free wifi) why can't other stadiums?

Least with the names of ST under the seats, you could possible name and shame him...

If you thought it was hard imagine how long the Villa fans had to queue 20 minutes before full time.

It was mad, we travelled from London to Cardiff and missed kick off

He's no judge of player mind. Damour looks handy.

:hehe: Was rather splendid giving them the old 'Cheerio' as they sneaked out in their droves

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
Why didnt those fans plan to arrive earlier?
They knew it would be a big crowd.
Should have supped up quicker!

It was just normal big-match queues. There were problems with the ST cards. Mine was fine but plenty weren't.

It caused chaos but they could have sorted it earlier by letting us use gates 3 and 5 which had no queues at 2.55, they did this eventually, but most missed ten minutes of the game.

Was in the centre of the canton, someone was stood in front of one of our 3 seats so we just took 2 of our seats and another one. Unfortunately when the guy in the other seat turned up he made a huge song and dance. The guy in the row in front got involved and my mate end up losing it on him so when they could see we wouldn't be pushed around they backed down. Everyone was standing anyway there was no need for it. I did ask the guy to my right could he move on one as technically he was in my seat but he was being a **** about it. Plus he was pissed and about 7 foot so there was no point trying to reason with him.
Nothing high fives all around when we scored couldn't sort out :hehe:
Thoroughly enjoyed the game yesterday and its defo got my appetite back. I just hope we can hold onto Big Ken as he was like Gareth Bale in full flight yesterday. It's a shame he didn't get a goal those runs deserved.
The last game I went to I come on here and slated him so very much eating humble pie on that one.

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
It wasn't that bad, it always happens for big games. If you want to make KO for these matches you have to be there for about 2.40 at the latest because of the first timers and people that don't go very often using the wrong turnstiles, putting their ticket in the wrong way round etc.

No trouble getting in at 2pm. It was no secret there was going to be a big crowd yesterday so I don't know why people leave it so late then moan about queues :shrug:

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
It wasn't latecomers causing the problem though, it was season tickets not working when scanned at gate 4, so the crowds built up while it was being sorted.

Some Villa fans waited until full time to beat the rush.

Basically then a part time, glory hunting fan turns up, takes somebody else's designated seat then makes has an apoplexy when being requested (rightfully) to move.
You really are one troublesome individual. I'm beginning to agree with the Croesyceiliog mentalist.

:hehe:
We did move!! We had to budge 3 in 2 seats but this still wasn't enough for the twat in the row in front who kept telling Pilarz to "****ing move" until he lost his head and the guys arse fell out.
Good craic yesterday you'll have to make a comeback mate. I'm thinking of resurrecting the MVF. You can join now you live North of the border :hehe:

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
When I went to the Livingston match there was this fella trying to scan his ticket sales receipt stub in the scanner. I helpfully explained that the ticket with the barcode end would do trick. :facepalm:

Strangely just been looking at fixtures due to an imminent visit from my Hibee butty who fancies a weekend in South Wales. A day on the rip is appealing, I'd swerve the game though.

Next Saturday game is QPR but it's on my birthday and I'm away so Sheffield Weds mid September our next one on a Saturday.
Football was decent yesterday in fairness. Carved out loads of chances. Certainly had our money's worth.

Seen the highlights. I'm not a massive Warnock fan but he's the right fit for City as has the character to sort out the nonsense that sometimes surrounds the club. On the pitch they do seem to be playing within a pattern and definitely have more purpose than the previous regimes. Dark horses if they can keep Zohore and Warnock can conjure up some magic for another player who fits the style and plan.
Fingers crossed.

Good to see you too, Tim. Yesterday was really enjoyable - the game itself wasn't quite as entertaining as the Fulham match I saw last season as it was nowhere near as competitive, but City were impressive, good to watch, thoroughly deserved the win and it was a decent day out all round.

Re: Nice to see an old friend at the game today
Dave,
Glad to see you enjoyed the game.
Don't suppose you shook hands with Vincent though!!
Sadly my wifes ill health still stops me going to games. In fact at just about final whistle I was arriving at Withybush hospital as she was taken ill on holiday. Nothing too serious hopefully but they have still kept her in!!
C'est la vie
Regards
John Williams
