    With the game on Sunday coming, I am interested in what time you normally arrive, are you one of the few who love to soak up the atmosphere and arrive 30 minutes before?

    Do you get in with 5 minutes to go? Or do you have a couple of pints for the nerves and miss the first few minutes?

    I'm usually in half an hour before, sometimes more before most games, old firm games for the pre match atmosphere, other games, i just like to watch them warm up, as a wannabee coach i watch it in great detail, sado i know :icon_mrgreen:

    Normally i go to KFC before every home game and get in with about 5 minutes to kick off, however with OF's i prefer to get in early and soak it up :50:

    My dad missed the first 30 minutes of the 6-2 game because there was no taxis to get him there (there is a big long story of what happened but I can't remembre it). We were 3-0 up when he got in and by the time he sat down it was 3-1 :56:

    I normally arrive 15 minutes before

    I done this once last season (not an OF game). It feels very strange to be one of the only fans in the stadium for a short period of time.
