Oh Drummer boy, you know I'm only pulling your leg.
My actual point is, while it's nice to hear you had a good day, the cost of a ticket is irrelevant*
Yes, I'm sure that it is cheaper to get in to Villa than Torquay, but, for all sorts of blatantly obvious reasons, that has no bearing on my life at all.
By ALL means, post threads about your experiences at other grounds, especially if the mighty Fulham are involved, but you'll fare considerably better if the raison d' être of the thread isn't entry price comparison.
As for DB, he is a REAL dark horse (note to the needlessly sensetive, this is not a racially motivated comment.) He gets goals by the hat full, but no one (myself very much included) seems to notice. If Andy Carrol (with 34 CAREER goals) is worth £35m, Bent must be a £100m man.
As for the geographic problems, it is the Manchester area which astounds me. Father and I were discussing this over sherry and shotguns the other day, if one were simply a football fan, where should one choose to live for maximum exposure. Our conclusion was Manchester. Think across the top, say, 5 divisions. How many clubs are there within a 50 mile radius of Manchester city centre. Go on, think about it for a minute or two, there are frigging millions. Quite how Altrincham or Northwich attract regular supporters is totally beyond me.
Matt.
