I posted this a few years back on a similar thread for this match...
This game nearly got me divorced. My wife hated the fact I traveled from Manchester to the Valley for every home game and she thought it was well funny that we had gone to Bexley the day before the city fixture for a family do, meaning I would miss one of my few 'home' games. I got up the next morning and started getting ready to go out, The wife asked where I was going to which I replied 'to wipe that smirk off your face', I jumped in the car and drove straight back to Manchester for the game and left her to it.
