Could you not have anticipated you might get hungry later in the day, and used the 2 hours between 1:30 and 3:30 to purchase some provender, from the wide variety of retail outlets currently available?

Well yeah except the time from finishing work to getting to coach ( 2 hours ) also includes travel both ways, shower and getting changed.
I fully expected coach to stop somewhere yesterday as very rare SAS gets to a ground so early.
Saying that I did have a pastie and chocolate in my bag but again at 6 wasnt hungry ( having lunch at 12 at work ) - though did come in handy to eat on way home.

Sometimes needs must and while dont expect cordon bleu at footie grounds something edible at a reasonable price isnt too much to ask.
When a kiosk doesnt have a menu or a price list and 3 women who didnt seem to have a clue its not a good start, and as thats the ONLY place you can get something to eat before arriving back in Swindon at midnight your hands are tied.

Usually only hot drinks/beer I buy from inside the ground but no bar in away end and even the bovril/gravy was a failure

Loving the fact that the game lacked so much interest that we are now arguing over whether it was right to buy food from the ground, seek out a provender before entering or preparing a packed lunch for the game.

Brilliant!

  more of an interesting convo than the game was for sure

That gravy is toxic, I wont go into details, but it hasn't changed it's constitution during the last 16 hours or so... as an aside did anyone see Yaser at the end chatting with someone and handing his shirt over? Oh finally, in case any reading thanks to the family that found my wallet and gave it back to me. I'd have been royally screwed without that on the way home.

I never travel away without potted meat sandwiches, a few hard boiled eggs and a bottle of Tizer.

Back to the game

For those that didnt go and were enjoying not footie ground food, lowlights are up
First half takes up about 3 seconds




Byrnes tackle looks like he got the ball then the striker ran into his foot, never a second yellow considering how close D'Urso was

def handball although unintentional for Ajose's goal, and no way was that a booking for Byrne, But I bet the FL play the dangerous play card if we appeal.

Don't think you can appeal against yellow cards unfortunately

Although I'm not gingerist, I never got on with ginger beer. Although I might down a few bottles of Crabbies, if accompanying the spiffing bird on the ad, for a bibulous session.

Ajose could do nothing about the handball, I don't think it would have been a penalty the other way round. Never a second yellow, clearly wins the ball.
