I quite enjoyed the actual game for the most part, although it did go downhill second half. Was committed and a bit feisty anyway, makes a change from some of the humdrum reserve games you get.
Have to admit I'm a reserve game snob though and hate the rare games with crowds as big as tonight (anyone actually catch the official attendance) - too many muppets talking nonsense, hard to just amble around and watch from various different positions as I usually do, and - most importantly - impossible to get a pint at half-time without giving up on the game about ten minutes before the break to get into the queue. Wonder if the message about Hargreaves not playing didn't get through, couldn't believe how many were in there when I walked in.
