Anyone on here who can lay claim to have seen BFC play more than 1000 matches (home and away)? Reckon I'm up to about 500.
If I assume 30 games per season and 35 years as supporter then I make the mathematics 1050 games. I am probably a "borderline 1000 game Tyke". Still love it now as much as ever......it's a religion, the whole week building up to a game, the pre-match routine (few pints), the post match discussion (few more pints), reading papers, BBS, etc.
I've probably missed a grand total of about 20 home games in the last 18 years, league and cup. And been to about 50 away games. Plus my dad was taking me to the odd game before that so I reckon I've seen at least 450, maybe more.
From 72ish to mid eighties, barely missed a match home or away, must have clocked close to a thou in that time alone...Mind you, it was affordable then.
Total estimate but I'd say just over 300 for me, around 40 of those away from home, first time I went was 1987
Re: I am, mate, I am The only away game I went to was Newport County and it got called off an hour before kick off.
Re: Now THAT'S an achievement You wasn't on the bus that travelled on to London to watch Arsenal, by any chance? Don't be silly....about three..
