Agreed, doubly impressive considering it must have been written with a skinful or two still in the system.

I bumped into the author just outside the (surprisingly quiet J entrance) turnstiles and confirm that he was sober..

A fair summary , particularly the incredibly low key atmosphere which was due to the differing emotions of both sets of fans. I was amazed at the number of empty seats 10-15 minutes before kick off.

Just got me wondering which set of supporters wouldn't have swapped places with us? 😉
