Question for those who did SF & Final........ How much do they charge for the T-shirts/flags/scarfs these days? As i am sure the lad will want summat but i dont want to have to spend a 50 pound note on bits and pieces as i gather its gonna cost me a 20 for just the 2 of us to eat.

Sadly i wont be drinking as i am driving to Hillingdon tube as it will be easier than driving all the way in, also having the boy with me i need to be alert, dont fancy losing him in that crowd.

All a bit different to 99 when i was trollied for two days, why did i have to grow up??

Dont buy naff all before the game as it's all 75% reduction on the way out.

Also your allowed a beer or two beforehand,Loosener and all that. Dont be shy.

Ha ha good shout on buying on the way out LAHAD, you sure ain't that Martin whathisface off moneysavingsexpers.com?? He's a blue all accounts (mate of my CEO).

As for having a beer (other than the driving bit) under normal circ's I have no probs bringing my lad to pubs, he's been going since was 3 WEEKS OLD!! And I would love for you all to take the piss out of my southern accent, but I'm also driving my niece a city fan much to her dad's disgust and her Dad (born a southener) a chelski fan.

Per chance I can convince chelski to drive, which pub will you be in???? Sounds like there be a mix of peeps so my southern accent may not stand out too much LOL

I wonder if those that moaned about the ticket allocation for the semi and the final and couldn`t get one are bothering to take advantage of the tickets now.. Not just this board...in general. All those coming from far and wide..WELL DONE.

Its about a 15 minute walk from the tube Ant, you need to keep Wembley on your left. There is a Tesco Express on the roundabout and prollee loads of Blues who'll be there from the s-f and Final!

What time you, Doomie and SoF looking to get there?

Get the tube to Wembley Park, walk towards the ground and follow it round to the right. Green Man pub (HA9 8DF) is on Dagmar Ave up a hill, the roundabout is at the bottom of the Dagmar Ave hill on the way to the ground.

Having to be in town for 6:30 in the morning to get the coach is a little bit shit.

Sure when i get to wembley i'll have the usual derby day jittery excitement though.

thanks Dronny/Michael

I dunno what time we're going to be there yet. Andie (SofFu) is getting the special bus down with a crew from Mcr and so me Doom and my mate will look to meet her there.

I think they are leaving Mcr at 6am so I guess they'll be there late morning. So I reckon midday'ish?

I'm waiting for that spastic from Florida to touch down and get in touch so we can plan our outing later today and for tomorrow

Me and my mates are in 106 - this may have been covered elsewhere but do people know which pubs are allocated as CITY pubs?

I'm not and I'm fucking GUTTED. I was dreaming I could do it but couldn't get cheap flights in time and having just put downpayment for new apartment I'm skint.

Gutted.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
