ooh it's a corner Posted 23 August, 2014 Share Posted 23 August, 2014 There's something magical about the first home game of a season. meeting friends and family for a beer, lots of talking points from the summer's transfers, spotting the small changes to the ground.... I'm old enough not to get too emotional about football these days but the opening home fixture still fills me with a child like sense of optimism and excitement. looking forward to midday and heading out of home to the pre-match boozer...

Be sure to purchase a picture of you two looking stony faced and grumpy on the rollercoasters when everyone else is screaming their heads off.

First thing I do every season is give The Management a fixture list and she organises everything else around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1576 Posted 23 August, 2014 Share Posted 23 August, 2014 This year I really don't give a ****!!! If someone offered me a round of golf instead I think I'd be off. Maybe I'll feel better when I get to the pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If neither of you want to go to Thorpe Park, why not just sack it off and go to the football? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitey Grandad Posted 23 August, 2014 Share Posted 23 August, 2014 First thing I do every season is give The Management a fixture list and she organises everything else around it. Me too. Every holiday/trip is organised around it which is why I get mightily peeved when TV moves the dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
