Pre-Match Ritual
Tue Aug 14, 2012 1:37 pm
To get us in the mood for Friday's game, what do each of you do in the build up to a league home game?
My mate and I usually get a Subway and then grab a pint either at the stadium or at the Westgate depending on how early we can make it.

My pre match ritual is :-
Argue with the mrs, shout at the kids, argue with the kids, shout at the mrs, arrive at the ground late, usually 5 mins before kick off, have trouble finding a parking space, rush to the turnstile, argue with the mrs and kids because they want to go in the club shop as the game is kicking off, miss the kick off and get in people's way as I am trying to get to my seat.
Every single game aarrrrggggghhhhhhhh

Few drinks in the Ivor Davies, then a fillet stripe meal deal with chili sauce and large chips instead of a drink.
Then a walk to the ground making sure I don't walk over any drains, watch city win then be happy and come on aamb to see people post any negative they can find in the performance

what Marc means is meet up as early as possible allowing us to drink as much as physically possible in what ever time we have before making our way to the ground
