13.5.12. 93:20

My wife has been working at the big 93.20 event today at the stadium. She said it was an absolutely fabulous event and was a joy to be at! 215 or so very lucky people I believe were there!
 
It was a windy day. I can actually remember thinking QPR, easy but.....butterflies in stomach, strange uneasy feeling till the end. Lots of abuse at tram stop later that night from utd fans incandescent with rage.
I lived in Stafford at the time and booked a seat on the train at 9 IIRC.. I got the 8 o’clock train and just before Macclesfield the conductor checked my ticket and said I was on the wrong train so I could buy another ticket for that train at ~£25 or get off at Macclesfield and wait for my train … I said “come on mate the train‘s half empty”.. He refused to let me stay on, I said “you must be a rag”… He was.. What a wanker
 
Every time I watch the goal I always manage to pick out someone in the crowd who is barely celebrating and just stood there smiling. Can never get my head around how you can’t go fucking mental and end up in a different row to where you started in a moment like that.
 
Can someone enlighten me… there was some sort of club/event nearby that had been organised for straight afterwards, maybe a social club,’remember going there after - was totally twatted so have no idea where it was and have mever found it since! Near Beswick maybe? Just loads of blues in some downstairs bar/club singing heads off…
 
Best day of my life and was on MOTD running to the camera at full time haha. Never seen so much sniff in the stands before was bags galore.
 
The one and only time I felt physically knackered after a match it felt like I had played the fucking game
I know what you mean.

While we were waiting for the lift on CBL3, I felt emotionally drained; absolutely fucked.

And I had to drive our then-2 year-old grandson back to York after the match.
