Here in Muscat, having a ‘pre-match’ barbie (never thought i would say that) prior to the 4km journey from Azaiba to Seeb Stadium to watch Wigan (never thought i would say that here either). Its my little lads (4yr old) first latics game, and will no doubt give him Top Trumps bragging rights in the future when he is in the pub or when people are saying “Where was your first latics game and against who?”
Was up at the stadium yesterday and took some pics. We walked up into the ground, no bother, security just waved, although they did have shooters.
Leaving for the game a 5pm Muscat time, 6.30pm kick off. Will put the score on here when i get back and a short update on the game. I think people may be surprised with the Oman side, i have wathed them here v Brazil, Australia and Qatar and they have some good young very quick wingers. And a certain goalkeeper who has caught the eye more than once.
Jay – PM me your email address, i will mail the pics from the stadium yesterday, and from todays game.
