Off down the coast soon to take in my second game of the season, Poole Town v Weymouth. Love the football season!
Hardly a season more like the whole bloody year

Fantastic, the football season has now officially started!
Thank god, last weekend was another spent on DIY with my Peterborough 2009/2010 season ticket put away!Next Tuesday sees the Posh V Spurs then the Friday of that week is Spurs V Barca at Wembley, not to mention Spurs' friendlies with Celtic/Hull/Wham being on Sky. (I'm a Spurs & Posh fan, although rarely go to Spurs nowadays)
Then 15 August a month today first home game of the season against Sheff Wed! Can't wait!
Four games so far this season, but by far the best was the first game I've watched on a Saturday, this last weekend. A couple of beers, meet a few mates and watch how the team is shaping up with a hard fought game between two Champions of their respective leagues. And all in the nice country setting of Hungerford - three quid entrance, three quid for chicken tika masala & chips and £2.30 for a pint. One of the beauties of non-league football, they don't take the p155.

Contrast this to Wembley... A mate got me a ticket for last Friday - Celtic V Al Ahly and Spurs V Barca.£50 for the ticket - crazy (I had tried to pull out after agreeing when drunk but it was too late and the ticket was bought)
£28 for the train - Nothing that I could do
£4 a pint
£8.70 for a burger and chips
in total I spent about £120 (and wasted half a days holiday) to see Barca put out the reserves.... never again.

I went Yesterday -wasn't quite as extravagant as you though - £30 ticket in the gods, £35 quid on food and beer, £14 travel. Still best part of £100 to see Celtic walk it.£50 for the ticket - crazy (I had tried to pull out after agreeing when drunk but it was too late and the ticket was bought)
