Is it just me that wonders if I have seen any JA606ers at the games without noticing?
Does anyone see a group of lads, drinking and singing their lungs out and think 'that might be Rebel', or a dad and young lad, 'that could be MT/LB'? I like the idea of seeing someone from JA606, but jot actually knowing who it is.
Obviously there are a few of us that know what I look like, from Facebook and Twitter and I also know what a few of you look like.
I think it would be interesting to know something about each other that could drive our imaginations wild! But not something too specific. Something quite general like, what turnstile you enter through or your matchdays ritual. Do you attend fanzone, for example?
Mine is, if I am not working, I usually get there about 2 ish, go in fanzone, usually stand at the back of the room and watch the football. I always miss the quiz questions!
I enter via turnstile 'M' and usually have a drink and then up to my seat about 15 minutes before kick off.
Share your routine and turnstile to make things interesting. Thanks.

I saw someone last season on the train after Blackpool game using 606 on their mobile. Turned out to be FulwoodWhite, who hasn't come across to ja606.
A similar article ensued, so this should be entertaining!!
I now live in Preston, so get train to Horwich and go straight to ground for about 2:30. Pie and pint, bit of banter and then 90 mins of torture.
Perfect way to spend an afternoon / night!!!!

I've been a bit of a free spirit this season with where I've sat. Been in all lower tier stands, (bar the away one obv.), I went through turnstile M for the QPR match and when I went for my pint, (only the one coz of driving), the gas was off so had to wait ages.
Normally get to the ground early so end up in the fanzone till the answers to the quiz come through or it gets too busy. Normally tons of tables to choose but I end up near the far end at the back.
Normally end up making comments about the match to nobody in particular1 and a couple have got a chuckle.
1 = (I'm not mad or owt - it's just the nerves)

I've got a season ticket but missed about 50% of the home matches this season due to work, not seen us win a home game since West Ham last season.
When I do go I usually go to Scott's for a few drinks and get to my seat about a minute before kick off. I enter through turnstyle k or it might be l (it's the one level with the steps as you come off the retail park), I don't look at the letter i just know where to go in.

My match days are as random as OC's selections. My seat is in the east stand lower inbetween the away fans and halfway.
