Being
real men, McCarthy and Oaf were watching music
channels on awakening in their Bradford Hilton
room. Here, we see a member of Journey who
looks shockingly like Nicky Forster
|
Unfortunately,
McCarthy's attempts to have a subtle piss up a
hill the previous evening resulted in him
slipping, falling down and getting covered in
mud. This did not come off
|
|
|
|
|
Oaf
is banished to a different part of the train for
the journey from Bradford to Leeds
|
Just
incase any Yorkshirefolk were in any doubt, this
sign confirms that the track should be kept off
|
|

|
|
|
Incase
we got in any trouble, we were advised my a
Leeds fan of the Leeds Salute - used to identify
with fellow fans, it involved punching yourself
in the chest and saying "Leeds Leeds
Leeds" in a low grunting voice. Potter
practices in Wetherspoons
|
By
a sheer stroke of luck, the Wetherspoons we were
in was playing host to the FA Cup. Here it is
arriving
|
|
|

|
|
The
FA Cup in all her glory - and all your had to do
to get a photo was buy a pint of Carlsberg
|
Potter
poses with the famous trophy
|
|
|
|
|
McCarthy,
despite being with one of footballs greatest
prices, still manages to look like a mentalist
|
Oaf
managed to have his photo taken without breaking
the cup
|
|
|

|
|
With
people purchasing Carlsberg just to have their
photo, this meant that there were full pints all
over the pub that people had no interest in
drinking
|
Potter
and McCarthy decide not to waste the beer, and
so help themselves to the unwanted pints lying
around
|
|
|
|
|
Joy
soon turns to confussion though, as it
transpires that McCarthy had picked up a pint of
Fosters and a pint of cider. Not only did these
lead to a disgusting cocktail, but it also meant
that these were not unwanted drinks and we had
effectively stolen them
|
Somebody
had had an accident in the toilet and done a
pretty poor job of hiding the evidence
|
|

|
|
|
Colin
Hawkins masks are soon on display
|
Potter
models his Hawkins mask in excellent fashion
|
|
|
|
|
Valder
suggests that Hawkins may, infact, be an
alcoholic
|
This
television screen was ridiculously high up and
resulted in neck injuries for those wanting to
watch it
|
|
|
|
|
A
pint of bread please
|
With
just 25 minutes until kick off, joy turns to
confussion as McCarthy and Piers find themselves
still in the city centre and a distinct lack of
taxis to ferry them to the ground
|
|

|
|
|
Thankfully,
we arrive at Elland Road in time for kick off
|
At
2.55pm and having just got to the ground in
time, McCarthy makes the questionable decision
to buy a pint that subsequently had to be necked

attack with a free-kick

|
|
|
|
A
delightful flag was on display here
|
The
Albion go forward
|
|
|
|
|
Potter
is delighted to be at Elland Road
|
The
East Stand is packed to the rafters, as you
would expect from such a big team
|
|
|
|
|
The
away end features a Southend-esque cafe. It
loses marks though for not being in a separate
room
|
McCarthy
and John share a half time drink
|
|
|
|
|
This
man was sporting the official range of Mark
Potter headwear
|
The
Clayton brothers and the Upton brothers were
plainly enjoying their day out
|
|

|

|
|
McCarthy's
half time pint resulted in him missing half the
second half - he was happy nonetheless
|
Brighton
have a free-kick of their own
|
|

|
|
|
This
steward shared an unbelievable resemblance to
Mark McGhee, and as such was greeted with a
chorus of "Drinking Pints of Whiskey"
|
Gary
Dicker suffered a nasty head wound
|
|
|
|
Glenn
Murray prepares to give the Albion a shock lead
from the penalty spot
|
Casper
Ankegren was looking stunning between the posts
for Leeds
|

|
|
This
policeman ruins McCarthy's photo with the Billy
Bremner statue
|
As
compensation for doing so, he sportingly agreed
to McCarthy's cheeky request to wear his hat
|
|
|
|
Potter
acquired these Leeds United childs gloves for
his photo with Billy
|
A
wrong turn on the long walk back to the station
leads through a housing estate that looked like
something straight out of Shameless
|
|
|
|
Despite
being surrounded by locals, McCarthy confidently
continues on his way, knowing that should any
trouble occur he can produce the Leeds Salute to
ensure he remains in one piece
|
This
Fanta bottle was half empty when discovered on
the street. Answers on a postcard as to what may
have been used to fill it up
|
|
|
|
Joy
turns to confussion once again in this off
license before the train home, as Piers picks up
the one can of Strongbow they had in stock. A
shocking state of affairs
