The clash of England v Columbia brought a return to a previous
TractorBoys.net tour from back in 2002 (click
here here
to relive the moment). This was the 2nd England friendly in a matter of days
(the first being in Chicago against the USA). That, however, was not deemed
worthy of a place in the gallery. The base in New Jersey was once again,
Mulligans Bar and the photos here only tell part of the story. The day started
for some of us at 9am for breakfast then it was off to the Giant's stadium for a
bit of tailgating. Next was the game and then back to the back for more alcohol
induced entertainment
Result after 90 mins: Who cares !!!! But if you do, we won 3-2

TRACT ORBOY ?
Mick left his flag at home so he produced this improvised
effort. You'd never guess it was done when he got in after drinking all
night

Ross on Wye - Why??
Gooner's (Arsenal) dodgy flag. Would have been the worst
one in the pub if it wasn't for Mick |

Kev and Yvonne (Mackem)
Yvonne makes flags and was very concerned about potential
competition for her business from Mick

Spot the drunk
What a muppet. This was on the way to the ground and
already Mick can't sit on the seat |

The entire David James fan club
Except for John (Everton) and Ed (armchair Chelsea)

Flags at our tailgate
Sadly the best one (Tractorboys.net) was missing due to
forgetfulness

Everyone (plus a few beer scroungers) pose for a pic

Altogether now..."There were 10 German bombers in the
air...."

Some Colombian fans
Much better looking than our drunken rabble

Martin and Amber (West
Ham)
It was a good couple of days for Martin. West Ham got
promoted and then he ends up on this fine website

Killer Pool
This game isn't so easy after 5 days of drinking

George and Bill (Mackems)
The older members of the group show they still know a
thing or two on the dance floor

Even girlies can play pool
