Coming to the Derby by car

Postby Cocacolajojo1 » Thu Apr 15, 2010 4:59 pm

Hi

10 members of the swedish supporters branch are defying the ash-cloud and coming to Manchester by car. It'll be a very very very very long and tiring ride but we'll make probably make it.

Lets make this a special derby, alright?

Alright!
"I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair, look what it's done to me"

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Have made a few phone calls alright. The Stena Line ferries are full tmrw night (can't get off work tmrw so can only leave tmrw evening at the earliest). Irish Ferries have one going to Holyhead at 20.55, arriving at 12.20AM. Earliest train to Manchester is at 5.20... Looks like my only option at the minute

Fuck me, that's dedication, and some drive! Make sure you keep a diary and log it on here when you get back, it'll be a fascinating read.

Good luck lads and 'Sing your hearts out for the Blues' ;-)

Well for me and eleven others it might well be TGV from Zürich to Paris, train from Paris to London, and London to Manchester somehow, sometime during the night of Friday to Saturday. If flights are not restarted tomorrow afternoon !

We're Supposed to be flying in tomorrow late afternoon. Fingers crossed.

I can't believe this, first it was snow in January in Mancy and now it's volcanic ashes.... Somebody up there doesn't like me.

Ok

My flights are now cancelled and overbooked for Saturday.

At 13.00 I'm getting in the car to drive from Zürich ,via Basel to Manchester.

I have told the party it's not possible to get there . I have 10 hospitality tickets available.

Any takers ?

Pm me for details

A mate of mine does Taxi's, I'm sure if there are a few of you I could get him to do you a good deal from Holyhead to COMS!
