because you'd been dragged along by your mate who supports a different team to you and you thought it was fudging hilarious?

looks brick doesn't it, I find going to a ground to watch a game not happening in that ground weird, you still have to put up with all the brick things about going to football (travelling, other people) but don't get the actual game
 
I was offered corporate entertainment at a few London grounds but only went to England games, I couldn't think of anything worse than being surrounded by fans of other clubs, our own are bad enough.
I had to work at the Emirates in covid as part of the PL contract I had. I ended up having a row with a fan at the NLD when Lamela Rabona. Was decent to have a row when only 120 people were in the entire ground

in the 90's I was invited to a few 'corporates' at the old Wembley. One was the 1993 League Cup final, Arsenal vs Sheffield Wednesday in a box exactly on the half way line. I didn't have to worry about being surrounded by Arsenal fans because none of the other attendees seemed to have any interest in football. One guy organised a draw for first player to score, £25 a ticket, two tickets each. It was pretty much all the money I had but I was too embarrassed to refuse. I drew Ian Wright and Mark Bright! I was rubbing my hands at the thought of going home with all that lovely money. First goal was scored by John Harkes and of course Arsenal won.
 
SERIOUS QUESTION:
how do we replicate arsenal's success? the new stadium isn't it. neither are new revenue streams.
what else? what must owners do since they've profitted in the billions. what must management emulate?

fully embrace brickhousery, commit to it, be cynical and negative in every action on the pitch, treat the game with contempt, thats how you master it

The sad thing is that if we followed this model then by the time we get there the officiating would have changed back to what it should be and we'd still end up mid-table.

I'll be surprised if that ever happens, the dark side has been the way for decades, United under Sir Alex are the last side to the win the PL without focusing on cheating imo.
 
Gary Neville said it’s likely their injuries are a result of playing almost every game for 4-5 years while they’ve been trying to win the league.

Hopefully the relentless stress of playing so many games shall finally catch up with them and LEGOhead shall have to contend with as many injuries next season as we’ve had to over the past 30 months and their form shall plummet in similar fashion.
