Taylor10 Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Or you would have realised weeks ago it might be a big game and booked time off work!!! That's what I did. Thought it may have had something riding on it and having never been to Valley Parade it was an absolute must. I must admit though I am glad there is something riding on it as its a bloody long way! I start work at 7 the next morning as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex#40 Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 In my case my wife is working, I have a young son and I CAN'T go. I'm sure I'm not the only one who CAN'T go. Much as I'd like to having followed us all over the country, including yesterday, up to this point. I could get someone to watch him for a couple of hours but not overnight. So screening would be ideal but probably won't be possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtyseconds Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Because opinionated keyboard warriors know everything, apparently... I'm interested ... I get more time off than the average employee but it is when my employers tell me when ... Nada flexibility. There are special considerations e.g DEATH MARRIAGE MURDER. The Fan know it all rep might be able to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aizoon Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Are you going to Bradford? I think you are wrong in classing those who do what they can to get to games as "super fans". No. I'm talking about those who are constantly nagging others when they have no idea of the constraints on those others. Some people, believe it or not, work for a living and can't get away in mid-week and others can't afford to go to every game. Still others can't do so for health reasons. You, and the other superfans who have unlimited time, money and health have absolutely NO RIGHT to lecture them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snufflelufagus Posted April 12, 2015 Report Share Posted April 12, 2015 Well i noticed Sky sports news started showing all midweek championship goals as they go in now. Not the same as being there but seeing aa we can get promoted they may do the same for our game tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said there are tickets available, so anyone who really wants to go can do. I'm not fortunate enough to have unlimited money or time. But I will make sure I don't miss the game that we are promoted at. When did someone who's been to what, 3 games this season..?

I have the right to criticise anyone who take the self righteous view that, if they can do it, so can everybody else. I could put forward the fact that I've seen over 500 City games, home and away, but that's as irrelevant as your perfect attendance record this season.
