But not everyone can, which is why the club are doing this. Some people will moan about anything

Yeah right

Or £15 for a DAZN pass and you can watch it at home whilst finding other things to complain about on the internet.

It was the old boy who used to stand near me in the North Paddock about 45 years ago - he used to stuff his programme into the front of his bobble hat!
