    Cambridge Cities new ground.

    I went to the Grays match yesterday, im seriously impressed, it has a big ground feel, with a full house it will be cracking. Im impressed they put in a grass pitch, there is no alternative, grass is best.

    The main stand seats are excellent, im 5 foot 10, and at the Abbey my knees would dig into the persons back in front of me if i didnt part them. Back then, they crammed seats in with no thought for comfort, not so at Citys ground, plenty of knee room.

    On the approach its like Forest Greens ground, almost the same with a the stand to the left and the rest terracing but smaller.

    I had a burger, plenty of chips, but the burger was a sandwich, nearly a tenner, it is Cambridge isnt it. Had a coffee in the bar, the coffee was undrinkable its to bitter, usually its to weak, cant win, it takes time to do it properly. Was it instant?,

    The toilets are disgusting, they are everywhere, Uniteds are a bog.....except Wisbech, soap and warm water there.

    The attendance was 560 odd, there were a lot of Grays fans for some reason, some very vocal.....are you another Tibury, god knows what that meant, it was meant as an insult......and is this a library?.....

    City fans did break out in a chant in the second half.

    It was a good win, Grays had some good approach work, City held a lead. Will i go again,?, yes, i see myself as a Lillywhite now. It will be treat rather than a regular, its a 60 mile round trip.

    I watched a video on Peter Osgood last night and his clashes with Dave ***ton, Osgood saw football as an art, as i do, ***ton was a technical coach only interested in winning.

    At the expense of players like Osgood, and in modern times, teams have no Osgoods, Marradonnas, Curries, that french midfielder wotsisname, a million others. Teams now only want to pass the ball into the net, thats it.

    Every game is the same. The modern game stinks. And ive just got in from walking madam, and womens football is on, Everton v Man city, im going mad.

    Do it all again.

    Its not about having different jangly bits, its about money, filling air time. Surely there will come a time when football ends, everything comes and goes, especially when its crap.

    Its not about being horrible, the question is....is it true? Like with all the other things. Its hard wired, its called authenticity. If i was being tortured by a russian torture tortrurer, and he said where does chalky live, under normal circumstances id not tell him.

    But it being you, id tell. Can i have your address just in case?, i know its Arnold on the corner in the middle. All he will have to do is ask.

    Where the bloke with the parrot lives. When are you going to make positive comments about myself? We are now going to get into an argument about who said wot when, lets not.

    A Russian torture torturer did make me smile tbf

    Once again youve taken it all to heart Frank,I merely pointed out how positive you began the post and then ripped the ground apart,is it important that you didnt like the burger? Just have something else instead or even take your own cob/roll/bap/muffin* next time,buy yourself one of those travel mugs that keep your drink warm and job done,enjoy the game,enjoy the day and most importantly enjoy yourself

    * what is the local term for a small white bread roll down your way?

    Its no wonder you cant sustain a relationship you are like the double bind family, whatever i do or say its wrong, while you completely ignore what i say. Then you tell me how to think and feel, while normalising your gaslighting.

    You are dishonest in your dealings. Can you tell me why Citys tiolets are not disgusting?, you wernt there. The question i asked was....is it true?, you judged me without evidence to condemn me.

    What sort of an as shole are you? You repeat the pattern all the time, you are either looking for a fight or you are a controller. Or both. I do enjoy embellishing criticism though and go too far, most normal people would regard it as entertainment, a sense of humour.

    You dont have one. The whole point of posting on here is to take the p out of united, do they deserve it, yes. All of existence is flawed, broken, imperfect.

    To point it out is hard wired in me, its got me into a lot of trouble, i see it as a plus. You dont see the irony in your way of doing things. While i can insult in a premier league fashion, your creativity is to ask what a bread roll is called.

    So a cob is a bread roll down your way is it? That was the most interesting part of your reply
