Bored of waiting for the new season now, looking forward to getting back in the routine.
Wheatsheaf / Buffs club for 1pm. Stroll over through Tesco's about 2.50pm.
Watch City lose, go and lose all my hard earned In the casino afterwards. Cant Wait!
What is your matchday routine?

Meet my dad in the Albany social club, few brews, taxi to the wheatsheaf, couple more, walk over to the ground, watch us go behind and leave with 30 minutes to go. Back to earlsdon and get wrecked.

turn up, think it will be our day, get to casino, queue for a drink because there isn't enough staff, remember after about 3 mins of the game that its hardly ever our day, say "i am not coming again", watch us lose, head back to casino to watch an overrated prem game. Head out for something to eat....

Then repeat again, always holding onto the limited good times we have had.

I like to start with a run on the beach to remind myself of the beauty of nature. Then a quick yoga session, kale superfood smoothie and Instagram some inspirational quotes before setting off and losing the will to live

Great thread by the way.

Morning is spent looking at the odds and on here to check team news mixed in with a quick gym session.

1.30pm Park up in holbrooks by the William hill on the roundabout and then do the death walk up the A444 and hopping over the barriers and careful to not tear my jeans.

On to a Starbucks at the Ricoh for a coffee (not alcohol for me) and a sandwich and then into the game for 2.50pm and clap the teams on and shout and moan for 90 minutes and then the long walk back down the A444 normally in the rain after a heartbreaking loss.

Evening completely dependent on the result as if we lose I am moody and downbeat at home or if we win I have a few proper drinks and enjoy my evening. Sad I know.

Wake up - Gym, Jacuzzi, Sauna & steam room. Get some food on the way to collect the old man - Discuss our football accas and spending the winnings mentally.
To the casino for 1:30 and play roulette til 2:30 - toilet, game, drop dad off, then off out for an India, steak Chinese.

Do some jobs around the house. quick bite to eat, put radio 5live on in the background, sit down and press the red button to watch Final Score (I quite like that Jason Mohammed). If we win, I then tell anyone who will listen what a great club it is ,and what a dedicated fan I am. If we lose, I quietly congratulate myself on not wasting any money on a pointless 70 mile round trip.

Oh yeah, I sometimes to waste money by going (not this year though as promotion beckons!)

Potter down to the Railway club about 11, watch the first half of the Prem game, Dad drives us up t'Ricoh and feel the dread set in. Go down to the Casino, whinge like buggery about lack of staff and watch the rest of the prem game. Wander up to my seat, swear blind its my last game if "we play like we did last time". Get excited the first time we have a shot on target, inevitably go behind, lose my fucking rag and sit in the Casino caning cider.

Get back to Craven street, get absolutely mullered and shout at the plastic City fans asking the score and how we played. Then go into town and carry on.

Football coaching in the morning with the 6-12 year olds( not one City kit out of 30-40 kids!), then back home for shower and lunch and then set off from Rugby to the free car park with my boy, with me usually getting excited about beating the likes of the mighty Fleetwood Town or Yeovil Town! If we win the previous game I go to same program seller,,same turnstiles and same pie and drink stand, ( I ran out of different places to buy my stuff last season) and then watch game, then drive home listening to the usual suspects on CWR moaning about our performance.

Get in the car, switch the radio onto CWR, drive from Rugby to the Ricoh, watch the match, get back into the car and drive back to rugby listening to people phoning in saying the manager should be sacked.

For my 2 or 3 home games a season:

* Wake up with excitement and anticipation of a great day
* Set off about 10.30am
* Stop at Tot Hill services on the A34 for some grub.
* Get to the ground 1.30pm (ish) and head to the casino for a pint.
* Get real excited about 2.59pm
* Lose the will to live about 3.04pm
* Shit, moody drive home until 7.30pm (ish)
* Moan at the missus all night.

Leave Weymouth at 8am. Arrive at club shop by 11. Spend between £20 - £50 on over priced tat. Go to my old man's for a cup of tea. Drive to Cherry Tree, couple of pints, chip shop, wander over to Ricoh, lucky touch of my brick (not a euphemism), watch us lose, drop my old man off, spend the 3 hour journey home wondering why I bother.

Wake up Sunday and start planning the next one.

· Wake up at 7am – put kettle on.
· Put NBC sports on the TV then load up Soccer Saturday on my laptop so I have a good stream.
· Watch the game at 7am EST (12 GMT) while lurking on the SBT forum for a bit.
· Watch the NBC game at 10am EST (3pm GMT) and also have a game on the NBC Sports Extra App on my Kindle AND a game on my laptop (usually Liverpool, as I have a soft spot for them)
· Listen intently to the Soccer Saturday commentary for news of the Cov game.
· Grumble when we lose and sit and wait for the 12.30 EST (5.30pm GMT) live game, then get bored of watching the football and either go play golf or cut the grass with a tinny in my hand!
- If i am at home, i will then stream Match of the Day and\or the Championship\D1\D2 highlights etc through the various iplayers then go out on the lash at 7-8ish EST if the missus is up for it!

Those of you who drive to the match and then straight back without even dulling the senses with a pint, how do you do it?

I did it a couple of times last season, dreadful experience.

Swear at the traffic all the way to the ground. Sit in the car park that is the foleshill road. Two drinks in the cherry tree.

Desperately try to keep my son entertained during the dire game so he doesnt start wandering freely around all the 1000s of empty seats.

Go home disappointed we didn't see a shot in target.

Drink

It's a form of self-punishment. Very cathartic. Great for the soul. Today's equivalent of self flagellation. You can tell yourself as we fall behind that the real world must be better than the hell we watch
I wait till I get back home before drinking to forget the dross on the pitch. At least then I can wallow in peace
