A trip to Reading today to watch Brighton lose 3-0.
There's always an added excitement about going to an away game. It takes longer to get there - longer to get geared up for it, there is more anticipation of the game ahead, the prospect of a different ground and different people, and the tense feeling of being in the minority as an away supporter.
Unfortunately, on this occasion, we didn't play very well and lost quite easily. This resulted in the downside of going to away matches - you have a long journey back home after losing. But that is most definitely part of the game. For every bad loss you endure, when your team gets around to winning, the taste is all the sweeter.
This evening I return home to once again partake in drinking and eating. Tomorrow I will attempt to eat much less. Bit worried about fitting into my trousers for work on Wednesday.
