Mr Angry 1,913 Posted August 11, 2021 Seaman had a nightmare! I turned up to the Arsenal game but didn’t realise it was all ticket and didn’t get in 😳 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though at half time, 2-0 down you must have been thinking probably a good thing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirsty Lizard 3,211 Posted August 11, 2021 That Whittaker goal against Everton always makes me chuckle. The way the ball keeps getting drawn to him makes it look like he's the only one of the 22 players who's actually playing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I was walking around in London and tuned in to the halftime scores and thought exactly that. I then tuned in at full time and heard a snippet that mentioned a great comeback so I thought we had probably got a draw. It was only when I got home that I saw that we had won. Then my dad told me that he had noticed that the fixture list in the newspaper had an asterisk by it and what did it mean-‘An all ticket match’ I told him!

pete 362 Posted August 12, 2021 Arsenal 1992 same for me thought bound to get ticket from tout no luck there. Got train back to Stevenage and got to Broadhall Way at half time to find 2-0 down. The second half on Sky was sheer joy however best first day ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely, first time I felt we had a Premier League squad that was not just punching above their weight but able to compete. Fer and Wolfswinkel were big signings. Somewhere, in an alternative universe... 😪 Edited August 12, 2021 by AJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
