I talked about the fact that I went 30 years watching City without having a shit in the ground, and last season I had two.
The worst experience for me though was Shalke last year, I had the runs. It wasn't the ground, it was the "fanzone" area in Gelsenkhirken. There was one cubicle for about 1000 beered up Blues, without a lock, and I had to shit in it about 2 hours before kickoff. No lock, no bogroll, gallons of piss on the floor and gallons on the seat. And lads trying to open the door and banging and that.
It was a bad scene, probably worse than Glastonbury. Only Fratton Park I would consider to be potentially worse.
Ah, this were it, absolute cracker that.
On the subject of Fratton park, Dave. Do you have anything else to share on this subject?
My cousin, a mad blue, went for a dump in the away end at Fratton Park, I think it was the year BRadbury scored 2 against us. He's in the navy down there there so I regularly spend the weekend down there when City are there.
He's seen combat at the front line, he's even talked about seeing a man cut in half.
But I swear he looked more traumatised when he came back from that single cubicle than when he got back from Iraq. He will talk about what he saw and did in Iraq when he's had a few beers and I get him on his own.
He's never talked about that fateful day at Fratton Park and I don't want to push him.
