The worst game I've been to was Chelsea v Arsenal in 1999. Chelsea were 1-0 up at half time and we were cruising when we made it 2-0. Kanu then scored 3 goals in the final 15 minutes, the winner coming in injury time.

I remember being absolutely soaked by the rain and sitting opposite a jubilant Arsenal fan on the train home.

Here's highlights of the game if you're interested...



What was the worst game you've been to or seen on TV?

I've only ever been to local games and to be honest they were all kinda bad. Visiting the UK next year so hopefully I'll be able to see a few good ones.

Which clubs are you hoping to see when you visit the UK?

You should come to Stamford Bridge if you want to see goals and exciting football. Chelsea are trying to transition to an attacking-style of football and it is leaving us open, Chelsea are good to watch for the neutral. The downside is the ticket prices...

Nothing specific as long as its a good game, I'll most likely have the time to see a few matches, and I did inquire about the prices but well I can afford it and its not like I'll be doing this often, only about 3 matches. I guess I'll have to plan early to know which ones I'll be able to watch.

Yeah, the other issue is getting a ticket. Most Chelsea games are sold out but there is usually the odd spare ticket. I doubt you will be able to get a ticket if it is a big game between two big clubs. Those games are sold out weeks in advance.

Do you know when you will be in the UK?

Late January, probably around the 26th. And fortunately I have family there that could try to get tickets for me, hopefully I'll get to see at least one of the big games. It'll have to fit in my trip plan though.

The Premier League games will be on the 21st, 29th and 30th. There are no 'big' games on the 21st and the 29th but Arsenal v Liverpool is on the 30th, on a Wednesday.

I'm not sure which game I would pick on the 29th, they are all very ordinary matches to be honest.

The biggest game in February is Manchester City against Chelsea. This could be a huge game depending how Chelsea do from now. They could capitulate and be in a battle for 4th place or they could recover form and stay in the title race with the Manchester clubs. It's a big game either way.

The absolute worst game I ever went to was to see the LA Galaxy against D.C. United back in 2011. It was just crummy weather and the people behind us were being loud and obnoxious. It was obvious they were there because they just wanted to get drunk and be rowdy. I should have just got up and moved to an empty seat.

Aside from watching my team lose (which is always awful!), I remember going to an SPL game between Aberdeen and Kilmarnock that I had no real interest in. It was absolutely awful. No passion. No skill. No nothing.
