The day I make my first trip to Spo.... sorry the Crown Oil Arena, to use my shiny new season ticket is fast approaching. So any tips on making sure I have a memorable (for the right reasons) day, will be much appreciated. I will be from London on the train via Leeds. Probably take a stroll to the ground from the station.

Come on James, you're really going to have to do better than that! Without conclusive evidence that you were actually at the match yesterday the "Elders" of this forum will be proved correct in their suspicions that you are nothing more than a charlatan.

It really is THAT important!
No it's not, and if he came to the match I hope he had a great day. But James started this thread about how he hopes it would be a "memorable" day and doesn't look to have any pictures or anything to remember his first visit, very strange that imo... Anyhow, each to their own.

Suss the WUM.
Yay well sussed! Don't think you can get any credit for this one though... TWOS has done all the leg-work, you've just stepped in at the last minute to try to claim the glory. Nil points.

Welcome to Royston Vasey.
Not entirely sure of the wind up I was accused of pretty much lying about coming up. I just stated what I did on my trip and posted some pics on here. I don't think I have acted in an overly wound up way. I am pleased to have provided you with so much amusement though

If went to Chelsea,Arsenal city ground then yes, but C.O.A really ??
Yes, for me certainly, any ground I'd want to keep a memory of. It's not just the visit of the ground, it's the memories of his whole weekend. Anyhow, he's clearly taken pics and shared with us, not that I can see them due to a 404 error.

Apart from the game being a little disappointing although pleased with the clean sheet and point. I had an enjoyable visit for my first trip. It was hassle free getting to and from the ground. The two pubs I went to were good. The Inn I stayed in was very pleasant and the vista fantastic.
Sorry for being anonymous and not having a chat. I do have some social anxiety issues so felt a tad apprehensive walking up to random people and saying are you on the forum. I will endeavour to make myself known next time (Blackburn game)
Re the social anxiety, does that preclude you from using a tannoy system?

Welcome to Royston Vasey.
Never heard Littleborough called that before. Todmorden, maybe.
When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf?

Ha ha very funny. The bumbling fool with the back pack that was me
Like I said, just a litttle bit of evidence... Show that you were actually there and you'll be a welcome member on this board, forever. You haven't done that yet, and until you do, you will be regarded as a wind up merchant. It appears to me that you are winning your little game as me and others are still biting, even though we are quite sure, you're on the blag. Why does it bother me/us? It doesn't, I/we can smell a rat a mile off.

I thought I was the one being wound up
Sorry those of you that disbelieve me think you have caught me out are mistaken. I did attend the game I didn't take any selfies at the game so unfortunately cannot post any pics of me at the game. But the photos I posted were taken by me at the game and the local area. I am not sure why some of you have felt the need to target me. Perhaps if I knew I could apologise for any offence caused or deny any false accusations
