Pluses and minuses of attending today

[Sheff de party]

- Northern line is off.
+ Still get to take credit when someone innocently posts "massive credit to all those Blades who made the effort today" despite the fact I live 4 miles from the ground.

- very real possibility of a fight.
+ presented a genuine excuse not to take the missus.

- Family visiting today and there are usually awkward silences
+ will be smashed by then

- pub at 11:30
+ pub! At 11:30!

- we might be rubbish
+ attending means I don't have to read the Shout Box during the match and risk wanting to hang myself

- we might lose and what's left of the sky will fall in for most
+ given it's one football match against a team who shipped 5 mid-week, we actually might not

- don't recognise all the players yet
+ it means Hammond isn't playing

- £26 to watch a 3rd tier match
+ but it's my team. COYRAWW!

 

[Trueblade]

You have done brilliantly well to come up with that many pluses!

 

[Dnblade]

+ we might test the keeper by having an actual shot at goal.

You forgot you will be able to dispel the myth that Freeman can do a job at right back for us. UTB.

[Northyorksblade]

Pluses for not going.
Save a load of dosh
Not spending three times more time travelling than being at the match
Able to watch the T20 final
Able to watch some of the Olympic finals on today

Minuses
Having to listen to the commentary. May even give that a miss.

By the way, although they got stuffed Tuesday, their home record is second to none

 

[Kenilworth]

Fava
Kidney
Pinto
Cannellini
Flageolet
Haricot

And my all time favourite
Chick Peas

You need to do this every game of the season

 

[Bladesman]

You need to do this every game of the season

He must do better though and include different colour text and make the plus points bold.

 

[Maidenhead]

- I decided not to go and now I'm sat at home regretting the decision

 

[BushBlade]

- I decided not to go and now I'm sat at home regretting the decision

Me too. I could probably still make it but I can't get my mates organised quickly enough and I'm not going on my own.
