We were playing Southampton away. Naturally OASIS had decided to make a day of it and we'd been in the pub several hours before the match. We headed to the ground though for some reason it was a non-league style ground with terracing all around. There was a bar on both sides of the ground. To ensure we didn't see kick off I was with leeslover and 24hours at one of the bars to get another drink.
They wouldn't serve us as leeslover was too drunk having had his wedding that morning. So we decided to go to the bar on the other side in an attempt to get a drink. However on trying there the young jobsworth said no again, leeslover was way too drunk. We summoned his manager who was also behind the bar and he said no you're too drunk and you all look like you could do with losing weight too. Aghast at what we'd just heard, we thought who we should complain to but cut our losses as we couldn't think who we could take the issue to. And besides, we were drunk and nobody would take us seriously.
The match was still about to start, then I realised I was playing centre back for the Latics that day. I was steaming drunk, and we conceded 3 disgraceful goals in the opening 5 minutes, including one where I fell over the ball inside the 6 yard box. The rest of the game went without incident, us losing 3-0.
