Thread: What else could you do with your Saturday afternoon?

  1. #1

    What else could you do with your Saturday afternoon?

    We were discussing this today, all the things we could be doing apart from enduring the shit on offer.

    It was tongue in cheek…..I think, I’m not sure anymore.

    Go to the pub before the game, but don't actually leave the pub for the game, so basically go to the pub....

    I go to watch my local club Merthyr more these days I’ve become so apathetic towards City.

    Beers on the terrace, some goals (for or against) and curry cob and chips. What’s more do you want.

    Non league is like watching City 25 years ago. It’s much more enjoyable. .

    Gave up my season ticket about 4 years ago due to increasing expense of getting to games and the amount of time spent getting there (over 2.5 hours each way). Plenty to do on Saturdays but usually try to get time to listen to audio commentary on City TV with their wonderfully biased commentators!

    I've started watching paint dry. Compared to watching Cardiff City it's really exciting. I'm hoping it'll rub off eventually though.

    Awkward situation, I’m away now and again when the City are playing but I’m, by hook or by crook, trying to follow our game. Wherever I am the a City dominate those 90 odd minutes, whether it’s a Saturday, Sunday or whatever.

    Walk round Tesco with the Mrs. sit in front of the TV. No thanks, I still like 'live' football, getting out, enjoying the company of 18,000 others.

    It's never crossed my mind to do anything else on a Saturday afternoon.

    Me neither but I’m sure we should all be sanity checked.

    My son has just moved to Aberfan. I said to him that he will have to start watching Merthyr now. I might join him.

    Quite a number of City fans watch Merthyr, from all over the valleys not just Merthyr.. You and your son should definitely come and watch a game. Theres a good feel about the club at the moment. 👍🏻

    Tell him to watch Aberfan FC. Costs nothing and he can have a couple of beers in the social after.

    Today's result was sickening it'll take a while to get over but I'll be there next Saturday. I don't understand so called fans saying they watch other teams, what's the difference?

    Re: What else could you do with your Saturday afternoon?

    Watching City used to be my life. It would inform my whole week. These days though, it feels more of a chore, like going to work or putting the bins out in the rain. Hard to equate it to my leisure. If it wasn’t for the chance to keep in touch with fellow sufferers of 40/50 years standing I could loose interest altogether.

    Yet then, I know that if Philogene scores a late winner away at Leeds I will be scrambling for a ticket to Accrington!

    This was always the plan in the '80s. But we ended up on the Bob Bank every time.

    My nephew drops a tidy DJ set at the club on Saturdays. Even though I'm nearly 60 I love dropping a bag of MDMA and getting into the groove.

    Why would anyone want to go shopping to swansea town centre? It makes cardiff look like Santa Barbara! Newport aside it’s one of the most depressing places I’ve been in wales, apart from cHaverfordwest
