BH Engineering works and bus replacement services make it virtually impossible let alone desirable to do a day return by train from Teesside, all the late departures from KX are sold out

There will be MFC supporters coaches laid on but I was light heartedly pointing out the logistical challenges of the last minute change, I wasn't expecting a spanish inquisition.

I'm sure Southampton would be happy to swap and pay a big fine instead ;)

I'll be there on Sunday hoping we can get a result and Everton turn up at Tottenham. .

We need all the noise we can get, so cheer for me as well.

Its a lot to pack into a day 6hr each way journey, potentially more with traffic as you get close to Wembley,
then there is...
3hrs minimum pre match drinking
1hr queueing up to get in
2hrs minimum match duration
1hr queueing up to get out
2 hrs minimum post match drinking

I never used to drink pre match .....the thought of being stuck in the middle of the kop and needing a pee.... :eek:

A simple solution to the Championship play off final debacle would not be to reinstate Middlesbrough, or Southampton, but to put Millwall in the final!😁😉 They narrowly missed out on automatic promotion, so they have more right be be aggrieved than either Middlesbrough or Southampton about being denied a place in the Premiership!😉 Millwall in the final would mean that no coaches or trains were required to ferry their supporters to Wembley, due to the club's location and with their fans being amongst the most well behaved in the country, surely the Metropolitan Police would welcome their presence!😆😉👍

I remember standing on the Kop for a couple of games in perhaps '67 or '69 versus Man City and Chelsea. When someone wanted a pee people moved away and folk peed on the terrace.

I was about 13 or 14, up from Hampshire staying with my aunt in West Kirby. The whole experience of being on the Kop was a completely different world to a 13 year old southern kid.

People used to roll a newspaper up and pee down that......I could not bring myself to do it.
