Just a wee anecdote, where there's a will and all that. I got chatting to a bloke on the train down from Stansted in the last season at the old Lane. Mid sixties, black hack driver, originally from Tottenham, moved out to Bishop's Stortford. He could have acted in a Guy Ritchie movie with ease. He told me that he had never had a Season ticket, never went online to buy tickets, just got them in the pub from his mates prior to games, including cup finals, etc.
Connections are everything.

Wonder how he manages it now, but I'm sure he does!
