Mine would be the 91-92 season,I was going home and away most games and had a season ticket.We had a fixture against Man u over New year and I realised that I was rostered to work that day,well it only got worse,as we drew scum in the league cup 5th round and the F A Cup 3rd round all at home,all within 10 days,and I was down to work every one of the days. The job had to go,yes I quit and my wife was livid and took about 3 weeks to get another one,after the games obviously.
Did another daft one going Monaco for I think a champions league game. Decided to go by car as money was short,set off and a little squeak was coming from a rear wheel.Turned up the radio so we couldn't hear it . Well by the time we got to Calais it was hell of a racket and it was clear we had no hope of getting there. Well we looked up train fares but couldn't afford the £300 but then managed to find a garage open on a sunday who put a new wheel bearing in for £85. couldn't afford a Hotel so slept in the car and washed in a fountain but all worth it as we won 0-3 if I remember right.
Security probably had a right laugh,was on a services at night in France,services was closed and dark so we stripped down and washed in a fountain,only after did we think there might have been cameras on the car park.
Sorry to hear about your relegation,with your only player being out for the season. Only joking of course I'm not sorry really
FFS! Mind bleach required! The fountain reminds me of the 2013 Tartan Army visit to Wembley. As ever, there was a gathering at Trafalgar Square - and they used soap in the fountain - loads of it! https://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/socc...r-square-fountain-soap-bubbles-165344558.html.
