Christ, how collectively nerve wracking was that !
Thanks to RedM and Paddy for providing the updates and holding it all together. 1,756 people throughout the world in different timezones were all in it together for a couple of hours of stress and laughs !

Glad we got the result we wanted!
started by cafc player doing the normal wrong match commentary
then sheff weds all over us
then i think it was scowcroft describing us as a ball playing team with more about them than sheff weds, then another 10 mins of sheff bombarding and us breaking away
then up steps jj i go mad and spend the next 55-60 mins waiting for them to score until llera came on then i calmed a bit,
last 5 were horrific
20 benson smoked 5 pints of cider drank
then off for a sit down to relax
it was the worst football experience i have endured since the play off final
the wiggins off the line incident was nearly cardiac arrest time. its worse when its down the other end, so you half see what happens and then split second later you hear the crowd.
all adds up to a painful experience but like a drug you keep goin back for more.
Bunch of pansies.
;o)
i told her that a it is not just a poxy football match, and every other person she knows who likes football, dont love it or love their team enough if they can listen to it and not care enough to be concerened
so just do me a favour take the kids out or take them upsatirs and let me listen
rest of the evening spent in the dog house
Didn't hear the final whistle but when I saw Kermogant looking up at us with his arms in the air, the feeling of relief was incredible!
In fact looking back I'd put it down as one of my most enjoyable away days for a while.. after a couple of years down in this pony league hanging about at 8,000 capacity grounds it's a buzz to go and watch something which vaguely resembles a big football match, at a big, almost full ground between two big clubs desperately wanting to win
Fantastic stuff.
A big thumbs up from Ho Chi Minh from me!
Cheers guys xx
Back for the Blades game as usual from abou 2 pm.........Cheers.
but on saturday pressing F5 was too stressful so I went on to listen to the CAFC Player thingy for the last half hour
you could hear the locals loud and clear screaming abuse as the charlton subs trudged off
the noise was deafening as wednesday got close, culminating in what I think we all thought was an equaliser for a bit when there was a huge roar at the end as wiggins cleared , it was a small delay before the commentators announced no it hadn't crossed the line ..... Proper heart attack/stopping stuff.... It's deffo an easier experience at the game , I never feel as bad losing when I'm there cos I know what happened and you just have an easier feeling being there cos it's real time ....I understand what bangkokaddick is saying , to me,its a lot more stressful not being there than being there....another reason to go to more away games !!
Although I've just been knocked back on my tentative approaches to make the next few away trips , kids partys and the fact she's due to drop in a few weeks meant I'm on a lockdown for away trips over the next couple of months (there's my excuses ... booooo) so match thread stress it is for me for a while yet
Keep up the good work red mid , paddy and co
Small yellow card for Mascots(I think) delayed "yesssssss" or whatever it was that appeared well after we were 1 up :-)
Love every minute of it (or have at least this season!) and long may it continue.
Great stuff by RM and Paddy - and fantastic to have just under 2k following it on CL without the site crashing, so well done AFKA, Lookie et al too!!
