A Friday giggle

n the 'Today' programme on BBC Radio 4 with John Humphries the Broadcaster:  



At the end of a programme recently, there was a discussion about the high cost of entry into Premiership football games – ‘£60 to £100 per game is not uncommon' was the commentary.



An older bloke being interviewed said he could recall many years ago arriving at the turnstiles, (probably at Arsenal or Spurs), to be told, "That will be 10 Quid Mate".   "What!", the old chap said, "I could get a woman for that!"



The chap on the turnstile retorted, "Not for 45 minutes each way and a brass band in the Interval, you couldn’t mate!" 
John Humphries could be heard in stitches in the background.
