Games you went to and wished you had been somewhere else

Edgeley Park. 0-3 down in first 20 minutes if memory serves, getting absolutely drenched, oh and York away!

Mansfield. Auto windscreen, need i say more

Ipswich away late eighties. Took us ages to get there in an old VW Beetle. Missed the kickoff. As I was paying at the turnstile Ipswich scored. I said “typical - all this way and one nil already”. The guy replied “actually, it’s two nil”.
Also Walsall away in cup on a snow covered pitch. Didn’t watch the second half it was so cold. Just huddled around a radio drinking cups of bovril round the back of the stand.

I went to west brom away when Santa Cruz was sub/subbed.
Awful drive, awful weather, awful game

Pretty much every game in the 90’s , but on the flip side I’m glad I was at pretty much every game in the 90’s .....

At home when we lost to Forest. Can’t remember the year but Leslie was manager. We were fuckin dreadful

Was that the night cup game where Wayne Bridge was brought out at half time and hailed as our wonderful new signing?
You’re right it was dreadful!

I can’t believe no-one has mentioned brass-houses on Euro always yet.

Brighton away FA Cup, lost 4-0. Those of a Doc Marten persuasion ended up in their socks due to over zealous policing if memory serves

John Bond’s last game iirc
