Matchday 7 … Southampton v united .. the one I was sick for!
Hey guys!
It’s match day seven, how are we here already! We have a trip to Southampton away today!
Now some back story. I felt awful it had been a really tough week with illness and questioned if I should even go to the game after ending up in A&E in Salford at the start of the week. Talking of that I’d like to thank all my mates for your love & support while I was there. It was a suspected blood clot on my lung thankfully it wasn’t but I’m not scared to say for a moment I was really worried, big thanks to Salford Royal and yes I’m complicated!
I ended up going to the match in the end after a lot of though, the worse was the thought of going to be sat in the car with the seat belt and I’ll tell you it hurt a lot, must learn to put myself first in such circumstances.
The journey was long and painful and I ended up asleep at one point! Waking up in Southampton a place that fills me with dread. Due to past experience away from football, it’s just a mixed place for me with uni & stuff good & bad memories.
Arriving at the ground Adam had his burger & he wasn’t impressed with it sadly it’s bottom of the list! I saw Raman & some other people before heading into the ground to find out I wasn’t pitch side instead up on the second tier .. I wasn’t overly happy about it being honest but here’s my thoughts!
I went to the accessible entrance where they told us we had to go I’m a different way, it transpiered we went via the players lounge etc. The accessible toilet was good but only accessible if you asked a steward! The seat was on a platform. We had a our own steward who was lovely and allowed is to order food or drink of required. The view it self was decent and we was right in the middle of the away so was super .
I however was hot & cold so didn’t get fully into chanting but I’m glad I went the game ended a draw..
Next stop a women’s match !
