Oxford United 1984/5. Got train to Oxford, which turned up at 2.30 and thought it can't be far too walk....ended up legging it to the ground....turned up at 3.05 then instantly went 1 down...Lost 5-0 and we were totally hammered.

Spurs at Home first season up- midweek evening game lost 0.4, i think, Ginola tore us to shreds, 3.5 hrs travelling due to terrible traffic all the way around the North Circ and Blackwall tunnel- chucked it down as well meaning had to sit through it sopping wet. Then 3 days later went up to Goodison and we lost by the same score and had to watch the scousers celebrating staying up whilst knowing that the week had pretty well sent us down!

Not my best ever footballing week!

Grimsby in about Nov 9, shat ground, shat game and the blokes I was with (I was about 14) got battered on the walk back to the car. Someone commented on the size of the sausage in batter in the chip shop and the locals took it the wrong way and followed us back to the car and gave us(them) a hiding. I was on my toes as not much a 14 yo can do against 4 northerners built like shat houses.
Ended up in Grimsby General hospital until about 11 at night because it was fireworks night and we kept getting put to the back of the queue.
After that we had to stop at very fckuing service station home so the driver could rest as he was suffering from concusion.

Oh yeah, we lost 1-0 an all. effing hated Grimsby after that.

Early 70's, Away to Port Vale. Went on Lewis's coaches in driving snow. Took about eight hours to get there and when we arrived the game was called off. Took another twelve hours to get home.
