On the train back from Old Trafford now and may i say what an experience. I have been to the Mellenium Stadium, i have been Wembery, i have been Stamford Brigde (are famous 1-1 draw not so long ago) but i have never experienced anything like what i did today. I arrived at the ground just as a few thousand man united fans were marching in protest, this carried on the whole game and the atmosphere was amense. The game was a blinder United winning 5-0 (all be it 3 own goals) which made my old mans birthday a very happy one. As a Southend United fan till i die, id suggest to anyone who is a football fan to go and witness a game with another 74,000+ people. We sat in the East Stand Upper and although we had hundreds of people between us and the pitch, the view was amazing. A very enjoyable day all round, expesh the home fans pub which is about the size of Roots Hall, packed out with sing songs from start to finish. A very good day now followed by a 5 hour train journey back to Shoebury.
