Champagne moment v still hate Birmingham City!!

Proper old school away game. (with old school chants (i.e Sammie Saunders, Jota and Harlee Dean x10)
Every time we went forward we looked like scoring
Goals coming from every position.
Birmingham being not so intimidating as it was in early 90's
Getting back to car with 4 wheels intact .
Also getting away easily on M6 and home for 1am mainly because Brum fans left early...
Bring on ball 13 😁

One of my thoughts, maybe we're more used to much larger stadiums these days. Mentioned in another thread about the BEE who ran across the door separating us from the home fans, well I feel I was almost exactly in the same seat near that event a few years ago, good memories (although I think we lost)

Can I have 2?

1. Singing "Why the f*** are you still here?" on about 85 minutes to the few souls left in the home stand.

2. Walking through the Royal George pub next to the ground to get to my room for the night. Place full of Blues so my red and white was discreetly concealed. My face probably gave me away though. Just a glorious feeling.

Going back to @PLE's point earlier, walking out of that pub alive back in the 90's was considered a result!

Missing the third goal because everyone was chanting “what the hell is that?” when Birmingham released, for some god forsaken reason, their mascots around the away area 5 minutes before halftime.

Basking in the sadness of fans in The Old Crown

Just yet another fantastic away day/evening, we are just creating fantastic memories with this team aren't we? My champagne moment was telling the boy (again) that he really is living the dream and at nine years old these really are the best of times to be cherished and enjoyed. His response to me saying 'when do we absolutely thump sides away from home?' was 'Grimsby 0-5, Leicester 0-4 and Southampton 0-5 in the last couple of years and we were at them all'. He really is a bit of an anorak with his stats and has 'rain-man' like knowledge of all things Brentford of the past 3 or so years, just bloody marvellous!
