Absolutely. Massive purple patch hopefully will turn black and they are gone. I have a real dislike for themsince I dove for hours to their ground, got in early and was told it was a dry bar at the away end. Had to have a hot chocolate ffs.
Arsenal did something similar on the final game of last season. It was a sweltering day and they had no ale. With the first half-performance, we went to the pub.

The same thing happened to Villa Park about six years ago, too. The main away pub was charging £5 in, and we got in, and it had run out of beer...

... we went off to Villa Park, and it was a dry bar. I then had to watch Aiden McGeady play football, all while sober.

I did it when we played Lille in the euro cup. Left my wife shopping in the town, got the metro to the ground (got jumped by local fans) and went into the ground an hour early for a beer and to check it out in general.totally forgot it was a euro game so all grounds were dry AND I hadn’t set my watch back do I was two hours early!

Pissed off to put it mildly

I'm not laughing about being jumped, but the watch and two hour part genuinely made me chortle.
 

Was just going to say this, it's got stayed up till 2am last night all over it
Is that the fans or the players? The commentators were saying the atmosphere was flat, and I thought to myself, 'Too right'. It's early afternoon on NY day.

I remember when we played Leicester at 12.30pm and the crowd was even hungover or had been too excessive over the festive period. It was silent.
