Quote from: Harvest Fields
i watched the chelsea game at my sisters. her 12 year old son is severly autistic and i forgot myself and jumped up screaming at the goal and he went nuts. screaming and shouting. scared the fuck out of me. apologised to my sister as i thought id upset him, turns out he was joining in.

Just over £1500 for me. Go to almost all home league games, plus petrol, parking, food etc. If I went to any aways or European trips then that would get insane.

Currently spent £1,800 on tickets without factoring in any future LC/Fa Cup games. Quite a lot for a student... luckily I live walking distance from the ground so travel isn't an issue.

When you factor in Basel and all the Europa homes in to last year I think I'd of spent over £2500 but am I fuck checking.

John's in the lead at the moment.

Can't have that.  The wools are always claiming to be the 'best supporters' because they spend more.

I've spent less this season due to no Europe, £30 away tickets and refusing the budge from 108 or 208.

I've started bunking the trains and robbing from the offy instead of going the pub as well.  That's saved me a lot.  I'm 41 now though so I'll need to grow up soon.  Might leave that though until I get a free train pass and subsidised tickets.

With me 3 star jumper half way up me back!

Worked it out to about £1800 just on tickets last season. About £2.5k on travel, food and drink. Every home game and about 25 aways

£1500 or so to get 2 matches for this year. Flights, hotels, and food.

Last season made 3 matches for that amount.

I dread to think. Last season I did every league and cup home except one, several domestic cup aways including the league cup final plus United away in the EL, Dortmund away and the EL final.

Rafa Benitez: "I'll always keep in my heart the good times I've had here, the strong and loyal support of the fans in the tough times and the love from Liverpool. I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager. Thank you so much once more and always remember: You'll never walk alone."

About £1000 usually (TV/online subscriptions + a shirt and some cheaper stuff at the online store).
A bit more in years I can afford to travel to England and watch the Reds live.

They should of done a section on podcast subscriptions. I prefer paying for The Anfield Wrap, than paying Sky's exorbitantly ridiculous prices.

I've never once heard a wool or an OOT claim to be the best supporter. Can you point out where one has?
