Never been to one before but we fancy a trip to The Millenium Stadium


A month today, can see us having a somewhat strange line up for that game.

Pretty sure both teams will to be honest.
It's a glorified pre season friendly but it's great to be in. Quite annoying last year when we weren't in it for the 1st time in years and it was dippers v Palace. Only positive was the result.


Saliba out for 5 months now isn't he? Hopefully they get a few more

The UK government has said "the World Cup might not be ours, but the Falkland Islands definitely are," after Argentina players celebrated their victory over England by waving a banner in support of their country's territorial claim.

Took all 3 kids to see us play TNS there, in UEFA cup (?).

In another world!


I remember going there as a kid for that game. Roof closed - strong smell of grass when you walked to your seat. And Willow Flood playing :lol:

And fhe stadium not even a quarter full

These managers make stupid money for being thick


He made bad subs but the players started retreating right after they scored, well before any of the subs we made. Cabo Verde showed more guts and fight than the English players

In all honesty, was England's route and game that different from Arse reaching the European final?

Infantino gifting Drump more FIFA money at a FIFA ball in Trump Tower last night. The FIFA president really needs to step down.
