The year we beat them 2-0 with Ronaldo and Tevez goals, I quite ridiculously and naively, drove the 3hours up to OT without a ticket. What a game to do that ticketless for the first time for!
I remember getting quoted £100 the second I got off the tram, which then magic-ed down to £60 within 5mins.
Then a right old mess realising I'd bought a child ticket, worrying the life out of a tout making a loud scene, getting £10 extra then I'd paid back, and eventually getting in for £50 for a £36 face value ticket.
I doubt that sort of result is possible these days, as needless to say the rivalry has exploded.
ps apologies for the long post, got carried away there
