My mate's a Fail supporter and his regular match-going pal is ill, so he's offered me his ticket for the Fleetwood game (for free of course), knowing I wasn't bothering to go to Bournemouth.
Not sure what to do- bearing it mind it will involve a day on the piss (pre-match and post-match) round Burslem, which, for all it's faults, is a good drinking town. The downside obviously is I have to sit in that shithole with the un-washed for two hours.
What would anyone else do?

Go to the game and after watching a complete shower of shit (both teams) you can come on here and tell all the wrist slashers how lucky we are after we have lost to Bournemouth

Stay at home and listen to Stoke on the radio.
I wouldn't set foot in Vale Park. Not even for a gold pig.

My immediate response would be "fuck off" and after thinking about it for a little longer my response would probably be "seriously, fuck off"

Go outside and headbutt your front wall until you are too ill to go. Believe me it will be far less painful.

I try to go once a season, rather than a pleasure I consider it character building!

Take him up on the offer then have an itinerary as follows:
Have a few beers in Boslem, after all it isn't too bad to sink a few ales then make your way up to Fail Park. Watch about 60 minutes then take you're coat off to reveal a Stoke top. Run into the middle of the pitch and blast out a Delilah. Get banned from going there again which great news, you're mate won't ask you again. Go back to the pub early to see that we are 3-1 up against Bournemouth. Laugh at Fail loosing to you're mate when he walks in then end you're day with a limo up to ST1 and party like Riccy Fuller on Jamaican Independence day.
What could possibly go wrong

Two things here in my mind. 1. Can you really class this bloke as a mate? And 2. How can you even THINK about going? You need to evaluate your life!! You need therapy

I am normally stood at the turnstile with a tenner expecting some change then someone lands it on you it's about £24 I suppose in the end the point is that gate receipts really matter in a division where there is relatively little TV and sponsorship money coming in.

I used to go to the occasional match (free ticket of course) but glad to report the therapy worked out fine.

Go up have a few in burslum and listen to the neanderthal s, there will be a lot of talk about stoke (because first and foremost they hate stoke more than they love fail).go to the match, and even if its the greatest game you ever watched , and fail play like barcelona, get up after 25 mins and say to your mate ,"im off back the pub, this is absolute shite"

I used to go to the occasional match (free ticket of course) but glad to report the therapy worked out fine. Back in the day I used to actually pay to go take a look at them occasionally, when we were away. Would still take a look for free but not on a freezing weekend in February. I'm not as free and easy with my money as I was in my younger days so I'd definitely not pay nowadays. I've never bought into the hatred unless they're playing us I wish them well. I always support local over distant. If we went out of the Euro's and any of the home nations were left in I'd be rooting for them, why hate your neighbour.

You should go and gain a perspective of just how much better it is to support Stoke. We should all support those less fortunate than ourselves

I couldn't bring myself to do it, if I wanted two hours of unsettling, surreal imagery I'll watch a David Lynch film instead.
I'll just settle for the Stoke game on the radio, 6 nations on mute and meet him in Bozlem later.
Some good pubs in Burslem.
