Boxing Day (5 Viewers)

Boxing Day games gave always been special to me, always a great day out home or away.
This year will be the first Boxing Day game I have missed in 25 Years.
Will be on the hill against Peterborough, but that's as close as I will get.
I know others have followed them longer but have always found the game on December 26th that little bit special.

If your going to make the journey, be a devil and go in

DazzleTommyDazzle · Dec 24, 2013

Yep, when fixtures came out always looked for the first game, the last game and the Boxing Day game.

Oh well, at least no rows with the other half about missing family meals this year....

Every cloud......

I make the journey most home games but not going in, can see most of game from hill and that's how I get my fix.
No issue with those who do go in, but I will never be one of them.

Yes go on the hill but it will be bloody freezing. We all share your pain. Estimated gate at the ricoh? probably around 16,000?

Very a True Tommy, I always go to games with my wife but due to the family commitments the Boxing Day game was often the one game where I went with just my mates and had a few drinks ( without a grown up).

Always depends which way wind is blowing if its cold or not, but we pop into the pub for a coffee at half time and see the half time results.

Fair play mate, you are a true fan at least. You have morals and love your footy.

They may well be away on Boxing Day but I understand they have a home game on Saturday and was saying fair play to those who are backing our local teams.

Steve get a coffee in for me.
Going to the in laws on boxing day so good job it is an early kick off

Boxing Day games are fantastic,
10 - 11yrs ago, Everton @ goodison park, Gary Breen header late on to win 2-3,I think,

10 - 11 yrs later look at is!!!!
Such a shame, merry Christmas all,

Here's to even better times!!

theferret · Dec 26, 2013

Apparently Posh have sold 1600 with PATG available. They will probably have two sides of the ground today. Even with a much bigger than usual turn out from City fans today, which is likely, we still might be outnumbered

At least on the hill we will be the majority.
