Guest jon Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Well, I've put my money where my mouth is and bought a season ticket. And I haven't missed a home game so far this season.However, I will not be going to the Bradford game on Tuesday night. Why? Beacuse I just cannot be bothered.For the last two months I've made the effort to come over to the Gate (I live in South Wales) and put up with utter drivel and constant dross. Seeing as the Team cannot be bothered (and many of them are earning far more than I could ever DREAM of), then neither can I.I'll be at the Huddersfield game, and I've even arranged when we're going away for New Year around the City (driving up to Scarborough after the game on the 28th, back on New Year's Day). But Tuesday night v Bradford is my one man protest.Scooter Red(Fed up of Caldicot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest harveythompson Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 I will be going. I love night matches at the gate. Its when the fans are on their best form. We need to get right behind the boys for 90 minutes and we will hopefully win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ronmeister Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 I can't go next Tuesday, and won't go next Saturday, because I don't see the point in doing a 60 mile round trip lasting about 5 hours to watch a shambles and get frozen and depressed. Could go to the south pole instead tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could go to the south pole instead tbhAnd that is surely the point of supporting City. It cannot be an act of logic. It is an act of supreme irrationality, as is the following of any football team, particularly one that has rarely troubled the top flight. Given that following City is not a rational act, surely it makes more sense for you to do a 60-mile round trip lasting five hours to watch a shambes and get frozen and depressed than it would be to travel down the road in the sun to watch us win and go away happy. I think. Or perhaps I got confused there. Whatever, I'll be going.By the way, what do you drive to games that manages 12 miles an hour - a C5?

I leave home at 1pm, get to the ground at around 2, leave at 4:45 and get home at 6 - 5 hours. In hindsight it looked like I was saying that it was a 5 hour trip, sorry.But despite my thoughts about the situation, after the last 4 home games, despite getting myself to go, i've come back depressed, angry and bloody freezing.No more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richwwtk Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 By the way, what do you drive to games that manages 12 miles an hour - a C5? And what way do you go from Weston to AG that adds 20 miles to the journey? It's a 40 round trip at worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazareth Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 On Monday I am going to a gig in Bristol. On Tuesday I am going to the City match.I am coming home in between.That's an aggregate distance (there and back, there and back) of around 400 miles. I'm sure you can manage 60 Ron...
