Players in their club blazers. Smart as a row of carrots, freshly scrubbed

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

Small local companies with an advertising board for the season
Pitch being at eye level even when you’re standing up on the terrace
20 lads trying to take an entire end jacked up on tennants super
Turn up on the day & pay at the turnstile (even aways) locked out many times
Jimmy Hill on everything football related
Little signs hung up at the turnstile with price of entry on
Pie trolleys
Whistling at young women walking round the pitch & get your …. out for the lads
Brass bands
Corrugated roofing & testing out the echo when you’re first in at an away match
Fanzines being sold outside the ground
Program’s with expected team/1-11 on the back page
Tiny club shops

 

[yeah whatever !!]

The rags singing;
'We score when we want-we score when we want,
We're man united-we score when we want.
