For once I’m glad the weather was crap. Was planning to drive but changed my mind. Would have been a crappy drive home.

It was pretty rough. Took me almost 4.5 hours, missed kick off by 10 mins, stood on the terrace with the wind and rain battering me, watched that disgraceful performance and now almost 5 hours home!

Got a mars duo though so it ain’t all bad.

Yep I’m on the 17.50 back to Euston and it’s going via Birmingham and just to make it even better a train has broken down in front us

Safe travels everyone

We were in it for 60 minutes, but got more ragged as the game went on.
Two goals conceded on the counter.
No need to panic yet though...
