I am yes, my Mother's parents are from Barnet and persuaded me when I was younger - that's the proximity between where I live and the ground

Norwich can't buy a goal atm and don't have the actual quality in their squad that newcastle do, which I think could help them. I think the FA Cup Final could decide whetehr Wigan go down or not

Are there normally this many clubs so far behind at the end of the season? If Wigan win tonight there's only 5 points between 9th and 18th  Could just be that I'm normally a bit more concerned with the top end of the table at this time of year so never noticed

being honest about it
1. I don't earn popstar wages like everyone else on here does.
2. I have no friends that like football
Both the above are the reasons I don't go. Money and loneliness.

You could cycle there and get a ticket before gates close for £5, job done.

I usually go to the football on my own, as do the seemingly vast majority of people at Arsenal certainly. Don't need to go with friends if you have decent fans, can usually have bants with those around you

Championship had 10 points I think between 4th/5th and relegated Peterborough - THAT'S insane, that's just a couple of late goals going opposite ways for a few teams!
If we hadnt lost both of our tight matches to Chelsea, we'd be 5 points ahead of them instead of 2 points behind... fine margins these days where so many results are less predictable than a few years ago.

Arsenal are the in form team if you look at the last 10 results on the BBC Sport site. City are not that far ahead of you or Chelsea. Or Spurs.

Went on my own to the derby, it was wank. Sat on my own in the pub, sat on my own in theground.
Would never do it again, saw a few lads I usually meet there but wasn't the same.

We are top I think, then Utd and CHels or soemthing. Says nothign about how crap we are playing though
Even that 88th min winner by Chels on Sunday changed the whole complexion of the CL race, you guys are immune to that seen as thought he title race has been over for months :l:

I went on my own once. It was ok but only cos I met up with my mate before and after the game. Just didn't sit with anyone I knew which was a bit weird.

as general life advice, not having someone to go somewhere with is absolutely no reason not to go there anyway

I've been on my own before. Funnily enough none of my mates want to go to Luton to watch non league football so if my dad isn't free I just go.
