SeattleCanary 0 Posted January 22, 2017 My first game in years today, and a great day out with the missus as it was her first game and experienced a bit of everything (hitting the woodwork twice, 4 goals, 2 pens and a sending off). She had a great time, and I may have her hooked. Very happy with the win, so not a bad word to say really, but I felt we did it all without really having to get out of first gear. By far the better team, although there were a few scares. The only surprise was just how flat the atmosphere was inside the ground for large parts of the game. When I used to be a ST holder I don''t remember it being so unbelievably quiet. We were right next to the away end and they were LOUD.A great day out though and I even got a sticky whatsit for the back window of the car when I''m back home next week to confuse all the seahawk and sounders fans where we live. Playoffs are back on! OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Going to make sure we get over once a year at least and see a few games from now on. I miss it like nothing else, including sausage rolls and blackcurrant!

lake district canary 3,742 Posted January 22, 2017 Glad to see you enjoyed the game Seattle. About the atmosphere, I was at two home games earlier in the season, the atmosphere was pretty good in both. I think the home fans don''t quite know what to think of things atm. AN staying and winning home matches well seems to have taken the sting out of those who were so vociferous in wanting him gone. I could mention the word "sulking", but that would be a bit harsh. If we get back up in the play offs I guess he will be forgiven and the atmosphere will improve! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norfolk Mustard 70 Posted January 23, 2017 My brother lives in Spain & was back home with us this weekend. Great to have him alongside us for the Wolves game - he said the same; the home crowd was so quiet. Although he understands why, we both agreed you could sense the majority of fans were anticipating something less-than-good was about to happen... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SeattleCanary 0 Posted January 25, 2017 Haha thanks everyone. I guess it''s a trek, but getting to see the parents, grand parents, aunts, uncles and cousins etc makes it a well worth trip. Hadn''t been back home to Caister in 11 years! Mad how many local businesses have disappeared especially in Great Yarmouth, I was genuinely shocked how dead it was.
