The Football.....

My team away to ManU.......we have waaay too many injuries against an inform Utd. I will be delighted with a draw but I'm not optimistic.

You're not wrong so far!

Go to one of your team's matches at the Den and then come back and say that

I've been to one,though it was the old Den, not the less intimidating new Den. I've posted before about that 1977 Panorama documentary about Millwall's various hooligan elements, partly filmed when they played Blackburn Rovers. I was at the same match. Yes, it was horrible, but nearly fifty years on I don't hold a grudge against Millwall FC.😉

Oh no! Carlisle lost to Boreham Wood in their play off semi final!🙄
Who the hell are Boreham Wood?! I think Accy Stanley knocked them out of the FA Cup a few seasons ago. To me they sound like a none league club, not worthy of Football League status. Ah well, I suppose they might be lesser opposition for Rochdale, that's if Rochdale make the Wembley final of course! As I post 'Dale' are 2-0 up against Scunthorpe.

Rochdale hung on to win 2-1 😉👍

Fingers crossed, but Budapest at the end of the month could be nice... (if we get there with the men's team then zero ticket availability unless you're a corporate sponsor)

Oslo in May should be pretty nice though - long, long evenings - sun setting around 10pm. Pricey though, so unless Norway holds some sort of fascination in itself... Personally, I'd use a long weekend to go to Belgium and drink beer, but that's just me

Of course, there's also a bit of cycling going on in the Italian alps and Milan that weekend, if that particular weekend is the one you've got booked off.

I wouldn't be able to cycle in the alps!
Problem is I'm using Avios points for the flight and as it's half term there's no availability to anywhere else I might want to go.
I'll keep an eye on the weather in Oslo but at the mo it looks not warm and potentially wet!

Oh not ANOTHER London club!🙄 League one now has to put up with Bromley. Let's hope League Two can avoid such a fate and Rochdale win the play off final instead of Boring Wood!😏

You do know Boreham Wood is 80+ miles from London? It's near Swindon.
