The most embarassing thing to happen to you.....

[Christy]

In 1991, I took my girlfriend, on her first visit down south, to the Barnsley game (as they were from her neck of the woods it seemed only fair).  As we (I) enjoyed the game from the comfort of Stratton Bank,  she wilted and fainted in the tropical Wiltshire sun. 

It wasn't embarrassing at the time as I didn't actually manage to notice.

Nineteen summers later and the wife's barely been back to the CG.  But rest assured it gets dragged out and exaggerated at every opportunity.

theres a common denominator(sp) with me and watching the last 2 games of last season, alcohol and acting like a twat at footy

Er yeah I can relate to that.

Bloody hell, you just reminded me the same thing happened to my girlfriend v Man U at home. I had a good spot on the Bank, she said she wasn't feeling well and was going to the side to get some air. Next thing I see is a bit of a caffufle in the crowd and  then she was escorted down the touchline by some medics to the medical room  and I had to lose my spot and go and find out if she was alright.

I was more pissed off than embarrassed. In fact if I knew how it would all ultimately  turn out I'd have left her there.

She was asked whether it was the sight  of Ryan Giggs that did it. She didn't know who he was. Birds. Leave them at home.

Wrong game.

A few years ago (could have been Colin Todd era maybe), I went in the Town End for the first time in a very long time for an evening game straight from work. Bearing in mind that I very rarely buy food inside the ground, and having never been to those particular kiosks before, I panicked slightly when, after purchasing what looked like a very dry slightly burnt burger I couldn't see any ketchup anywhere. Then, with a huge sigh of relief I saw what looked like the top of one of those large ketchup bottles with the push down top and a long spout. I placed my burger underneath the spout, pressed the button, only to see a gush of boiling hot water come out of the spout, all over my burger and my hand. 

I think only a few people saw it happen, but even so, what a twat.

At Wembley, a little bit drunk and coasting on an adrenaline high I was up and out of my seat, hands in the air celebrating the would have been goal before Charlie's bobble even before he struck it. As I returned to my seat, with that sinking feeling I noticed a LOT of Millwall fans laughing and making wanker signs in my direction, there was even pointing.

I'm not going to repeat it myself, apart from maybe a little mention of the time I set myself on fire in the townend - quite fitting in a way, but I think I have most of you beat several times over. On one event. I'm sure somebody will link to the relevant thread. I blame Jayohaitchenohpeequareestee.

I also absolutely love him to bits. Haven't seen you for ages dude, give us a shout when you're out on a saturday night or something

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Wasn't that after Cheltenham away? I probably don't remember because I was absolutely cunted too.

[flammableBen]

I think you'd gone off home in a taxi chasing an engagement ring or something. But yeah.

You can bring the speed this time
