Ladies + Football = .....?

True story from an Arsenal season-ticket holder

His season-ticket last year was an absolute plum seat half way up The Highbury main stand close to the half-way line. In other words, a TV camera style view.

Anyway, after the first few games of the season it became apparent that despite all the home games being sell-outs, the two seats on his left were always empty. This continued until just after Christmas when all of a sudden a guy and his young son appeared there.

After a few weeks of sitting next to this guy and his son, he decided to ask if the guy knew why the seats had been empty for half the season.

The response is legendary:

'Yeah don't even go there mate. The wife bought me and my son a season ticket but decided it would be a nice idea to give us them for Christmas. I was f***in' raging!'


They're pretty bright, aren't they? No offence!

His wife most likely didnt know that she wasted half of the season ticket...
This is absolutely silly...

LOL, I'd have loved to see the guy's face. But don't even go into the Ladies+Footie thing, becase that's absolute chauvinism.

heh of course that's a tongue in cheek topic. I think ladies are very much aware of football now. Great sign!
