We came up for our once-or-twice a year game (turned out to be a great match to choose!), lured partly by the Family Fun Day and corresponding cheap ticket deal in the Family Enclosure.
Not been in the Trinity Lower before - not much atmosphere (though ideal being with a seven and a three year old) but a good view and the seven-year-old was thrilled to see the players so close up as they came in and out the tunnel, despite the result. Those fire jet things were ridiculous - we were in row 11 and flinched at the heat.
The Family Fun Day element in the Indoor Academy was OK I guess for a freebie, but the queues were so big the kids could only have a go at a couple of things in the hour or so we were there (not including to my regret getting a pic with Ian Taylor!).
All in all left with the usual mild annoyance at how footie fans are treated compared to other sports , particularly as regards food and drink. The overcharging for the most simple (or downright nasty) fare, and the one that always boils my piss - the petty alcohol restrictions.
On the positive side, fair play to the club for keeping our admission prices accessible for the less well off, and that giant flag in the Holte looked ace. And as ever you can't beat the real thing over the TV version we're forced to endure most of the time living where we do. Will hopefully at least get to the likes of Soton and Reading this year tho, by which point I'm sure PL will have sorted the team ;0)
