Mode
of Transport:
We met at the real home of football that is Withdean,
and journeyed from their in the Kane Mobile to
the pub in Patcham |
Team:
We played a 3-2 formation, with Cutting, Witham
and Kane sitting at the back one-side of the table,
and McCarthy and Carina at the front of the table |
Kit:
No formal kit was used for the evening, although
Neil supplied us with his Brighton shirt embodied
with the immortal words: "Pethick 14" |
Mark
McGhee's Attire:
Mark McGhee was not present at the evenings activities,
but the man who was captain and lifted both the
Division 3 and Division 2 Championships with the
club, Paul Rogers, was present, wearing an extremely
dashing polo neck |
Weather:
A chilled night outside, inside the stadium was
warm |
Stadium
Rating:
The Ladies Mile had kindly given the function
room over for free. It was a large arena, with
a well-stocked bar and good PA System. The wallpaper
was particularly arousing, although the whole
room had marvelous decor. 7/10 |
Food
Rating:
Free peanuts and crisps were provided at each
table, and these went down a treat. The beer on
offer was particularly fine as well. 8/10 |
Entertainment:
Extremely impressive. A rendition of the new version
of Tom Hark - entitled 'We want Falmer' was played
before the match. The quiz master was a witty
chap as well, who kept the crowds entertained
with quick-fire jokes. 8/10 |
Friendliness
of Locals:
Marvelous. A room full of Brighton fans though,
so what can you really expect. Good banter was
held with the team to our right hand side, who
soon realised that we were using WAP to get answers.
10/10 |
Standard
of Local Females:
One particularly nice girl was selling raffle
tickets. "£5 for 2 strips", to which Neil responded
"That's a bit cheap". Luckily she didn't pick
up on the sexual context of the remark. 4/10 |
Flag
Attention:
Tom Stewart was not present, so the flag was not
viewable inside the arena |
Match
Report:
We started well, using WAP to our advantage to
gain answers to questions that we didn't know.
However, as we steadily drank more beer, interest
in the quiz wandered off, and we ended up in a
comftable mid-table position come the end of the
evening |
Thought
of the Day:
"What would you do if Liz Costa walked into the
quiz totally naked?" was a question posed. Witham
responded with: "Stand up and applaud, although
I'd have trouble hiding my delight downstairs" |
