Does being at the Stadium give you the

illusion you played better than you have done?

I have probably been to about 80 games in my lifetime (unfortunately finances and work commitments prevent me from being a regular) and i can't recall ever leaving a game thinking that we played badly, although i guess it helps that i have remarkably only ever seen us lose once and never at The Bridge.

A few of those games i went to i went on the internet later on and/or spoke to friends who saw it one the TV and noticed the opinion by a lot of fans on the game was quite negative, so does being at the match make performances look better than they actually are?

So do you keep your pint mug upside down to keep the Carling where it is?

Also a bit of advice if you don't mind Tway, can you get Stella there? I don't want to waste my money booking if not!

I do believe the refreshment choices will be copious once the passenger service starts, Brummie, as the company logo reads "We aim to please"...

Speaking of pilots ours has been missing for the last hour, thank goodness we have "auto" the robot who manages that job when not filling mugs with froth....

I actually believe TV makes a bad performance look better than if you watch it in the stadium

Biggish what's even funnier is any match i plan to attend but for whatever reason don't tends to end badly

West Brom late penalty gate (Ramires dive) and Bournemouth last season two major examples!

Well let me refer you to bad endings for me in1999...I am in the front row bottom tier of the MH stand, uncovered and it is hammering it down, however i am in good spirits as we have a comfortable 2-0 lead agst Arsenal and I turn to my mate and say, we may be feckin drenched, but at least I am finally going to see us beat Arsenal. The rest is history and all i can say is that I am just grateful that Kanu scored them at the Shed End as from my seat i could barely see the goals

Despite all the criticism Ramires received for that, I thought it was a pen.

The Albion defender just barged into him from his Port Aft Quarter!

also not being a regular these days I see games differently on TV...

I've been to some right dire games in the past, but if we've scored in the 85th minute from a scuffed effort...i'll walk away happy

These days we're all on social media the second things happen, so a lot of the rubbish is still fresh in the mind I guess
