I feel the need to share my day with u guys as yesterday was the best day of my life!

Woke up really excited for the game as most of you were but as i am at uni in bedford, and didnt have tickets, was resigned to the tele, so... was on my laptop on facebook, when i saw a players status saying... got spare tickets. I thought lets give it a go. Thinking there was no chance and he would just give them to his close m8es. However to my delight at about 3 he e-mailed me bk saying if you can get dwn here in 3 hours il save you 2. so i got ready got my flatmate and we thought lets go!!!!! so we drove for near to four hours because of traffic worrying whether this was legit or not. we finally parked up about a mile away and legged it to the players entrance, whilst on the phone so we could find him. and THERE HE WAS! it was so sureal! and gave me two tickets.

We had a few doubts in our minds wether they were real, but we got in and i was buzzin my tits off! turns out these were corperate tickets, and we were sitting right next to Ricky Hatons box. We were also siting with a few reserve players, Donal Mcdermott, David Ball and Kieron Trippier to name a few. At half time we were able to walk around the boxes area. and saw Ricky Hatton!!!! the game kicked off...... and you lot know the rest!

Nice story, congrats. Sounds like a nice bloke to go to so much trouble.

EDIT: and it's hilarious that you were worrying about the tickets being real. You knew exactly who he was and how to find him.
