Thats Entertainment.......

by biscuitsrus » 22 Jan 2007 14:15

From my favourite band "The Jam" to my favourite FT, I certainly feel that Im getting my monies worth on and off the pitch.

Other than on the catering side does anyone disagree?

I've spent nearly £1500 on tickets this season. I would say that my entertainment value is pretty low

Circa £1100 if you want to be picky, with seven away games to go plus any further FA Cup games.

Having spent the same I would pay double for the theatre that we have been treated to.

Seems in respect of other supporters we have had twice the entertainment at half the price. Well not entirely accurate but the way I feel.

Evidently a man who needs his pound of flesh and a pint of blood to wash it down to make him feel he has "VFM"...

The opening day comeback.
The comeback over Spurs.
The wins over Bolton, Charlton, Man City.
Declaring against West Ham.
Away wins at Sheff U, Fulham, West Ham, leading at Villa.
Leading Man U at home, running them close(ish) in their garden shed...and the Manchester pubs.
Chelsea/Casualty FC at home (no malice intended towards the keepers), then the Boxing Day laugh-in at the Bridge.
Arsenal, yes, even watching them tear us apart at home. Painful, but how football should be played.
Newcastle, the stadium, and the night out before/after the game, even if we should have got at least a point.
Multiple visits to Liverpool and "proper" stadiums, even if the views were like looking through your letterbox at the telly...as well as the pubs.
Warnock v Wally.

The downers for me would be Wigan, Pompey, Watford, Everton (h) and the second half of Blackburn, but they're all part of the rich tapestry that is Premiership football, and you can't have all your cake and eat it...

I'm bloody loving it, me, and with three of us attending every single game, I think it'll be the thick end of £6000 all in by the end of the season - worth almost every penny.

Well, the Arsenal defeat was definitely not VFM. I thought it was a waste of my money.

The only money spent so far that didn't see its value was spent on two rooms in the hotel in Liverpool the night before Everton...having had a decent night out around the pubs, we retired to bed around 12.45am, only to be rudely awoken at about 2.30 by a horde of scum from Old Trafford staying the night after their game, drunkenly bellowing out all manner of chants and trying to wreck the rooms immediately below us. They then moved onto a whole repertoire of Norn Iron songs, making us realise they were staying over before flying back to Belfast on Sunday morning. No-one in the hotel seemed to be able to do anything as they rampaged for about 3 hours before all crashing out at 5am-ish.
The only comfort was the sound of yacking into sinks that could be clearly heard coming from below as they awoke around 8, although they did simply carry on where they left off with the chanting, banging and crashing until they finally stumbled out of the hotel around 9am... :roll:

Can you put a value on happyness. I don't think so, so don't bother trying, its only money and you have to spend it somewhere.
