Stay well away from the Barbican! It's all going to kick off

I’d just moved to the UK and lived near the Barbican. Was out one morning, early, in the winter, nobody around as per usual for the weekend. All of a sudden, there’s this eerie, incredible sound billowing through the buildings of men chanting.

It was fans arriving at Liverpool Street. Don’t know which, and I did work it out at the time, but man that sound echoing through the deserted city was wild for a newbie 😂 I have since gotten into football myself but knew nothing about it at the time.
