Welcome to my world of watching Town!
In my 50 years of going I have never been to a game when I have had more than 2 pints ever.
I tend to drink after games not before them.
I need to drink before the games in order to watch the shit we get served up.  |

There are a few games where I don't remember a single thing from, just a pure blur  |

Our gates maybe above most in this league but that is only on paper- think we all know what is really going on.
Indeed. |

Is that Ian King, supporter who was/still is Hospitality ST holder, who wrote that? Great piece and mirrors/conveys likely the thoughts of many - including myself. I tagged along with him in hospitality several games, during the PdC 12/13 season. He was kind enough to offer me that option when his Dad couldn't attend. If it is him then ''hey Ian''. That was, of course in much more fruitful times and very relatively so compared to present day. ^sighs in Wookiee^ |

The Ian King who wrote that has no direct link or support of stfc, he writes stuff about football generally and used to co host a pretty good podcast sort of about football (but more iften thsn not politics) the name of which I've forgotten. |

"What I didn't need to know what was happening above, on a daily basis. It was very distracting. When the fans hate the owner and then someones trying to buy the club underneath him and he knows about that and he gets worried and tries to bring someone in who can support his cash, when theres.....thats not really football is it? that's politics more or less. I'm not an owner I don't need to know that."
Fuck me how has no one picked up on this quote yet?
He's talking about Grimsby and not us, by the way.

Thanks for that Horlock. Good to know the name of the Pod if you can raid your memory at all? Also, if ''our'' Ian King does frequent here then that'd also be decent. |
