I never made it today due to coming from Leeds and the M62 closed at Huddersfield at 1pm (bet this fucked up a lot of Yorkshire blues)
As I was waiting in the traffic I was working out at which time to bin it off and get off at the next junction. When I still hadn’t moved at 1.30 I worked out that even if the traffic started I would not be getting parked up at the ground until 2.30 at best and most of the streets would be full by then. By the time I would have walked to the ground I would have been in the SS3 queue and would have missed a big chunk of the game.
In nearly 20 years coming from Yorkshire, is the 1st game I have missed due to traffic.
This season I have been leaving home 30 mins earlier than ever before to ensure I am getting into the ground by 2 which has worked well. It seems that anything after 2.30 is asking for trouble.
In the end the Motorway was shut until after 2 and I managed to get off and was back home for 2.30 and luckily missed the shit show. After unsuccessfully trying to find a stream and then fucking it off, I watched the cricket whilst listening to the radio City commentary.
All in all with other results, a pretty wank day.
