A post that's not entirely to do with football I swear.

One minute you're utterly disappointed in a bunch of over-paid men in shorts and the next you're hugging strangers and nearly falling down stairs. That final whistle brings a wave of adrenalin that builds as two players start squaring up and suddenly both teams are at each others throats. We want blood. I want a riot.

Yay football hooliganism!

Ack that'll do you'll not continue reading if I write anymore and I do so crave attention. I will say somebody had a big banner made up that said "Shame of Scotland" and this huge arrow pointing at the Rangers fans. I may have giggled. Imagine caring that much to make a banner. Nothing will ever compare to the time that some Rangers fans decided to bring potatoes to throw onto the pitch at the beginning of the match a few years back. You know because of the famine. Hilarious.

Anyways sometime when we weren't winning (as in most of the second half) I had an idea. I might have interpreted Pandora's Box in a rather vulgar way. I might have laughed at the idea of opening her box. I'm not sure whether I told myself a lewd joke or whether there's an image worth using there.

Also: the sky was utterly gorgeous above the stands at one point and I even had my phone loading up to see if I could take a picture. I miss having a proper camera. Although maybe I don't need more pictures of the sky. So there I was waiting for my agonisingly slow phone to let me take a picture when I was suddenly kicked by a guy who'd lost his seat. He scrambled over my shoulder and sat in the seat next to me. I had to pocket my phone. He didn't seem like the sort of guy that'd appreciate me blocking his view just to capture the sky. Not like the game was really that interesting at that point anyway.
