Already got them split at the top level within the club, David Milliband has jacked due to Di Canio’s past political outbursts.
I think they’ve got a poor man’s Ian Holloway who will probably spend at least 4 of their last 7 games sat in the stand.

What a journey!April Foolometer reading 2/10
Barely a 2[/quote]
Me thinks thinks its worth more than a 2/10 being that the first responder was hooked and so was the 3rd, even after the poster before had twigged it and said so. goodpost
I’d give it a 4/5 at least. :PFrom Matlock to ManU
What a journey!They’re getting really deluded nowThat’s interesting so they reckon we will get just 3 miserly points from our last 8 games??? :ohmy:
Having said that, I think that any teams getting 36 points or less, will be relegated and there will be 3 teams that don’t make that target.
I truly feel that 37 points will be enough for safety. :silly:

What a journey!Well done Griff I think you had us all biting there, but most of us chose to hover to see what the reaction was.
I suspect that the minibus with lads from Ashton and Leigh [and maybe Standish] on it was the truth though. B) :P

What a journey!Just been down to the DW and changed my block 118 tickets row 7 to block 120 row 39. I’m in that little block that sits just underneath the first tier which is corporate only.
I just tried to swap my seats and the woman was having none of it. Swore blind that swapping wasn’t possible and didn’t seem remotely bothered that those who stroll up at the end of the week will get the best seats. “Blame the FA” was the only response I got.
The ticket office manager was a bit more sympathetic but still wouldn’t swap them for me – he assured me no-one had as the system wouldn’t let them.
How did you manage to swap yours?[/quote]
I told um that me and my lad was in different blocks despite getting them at the same time on line. I suggest you take them in and say you can’t go now due to some family reasons get your money back and get them on general sales. It’s a fekin joke and will be more of a farce if we get to the final. :woohoo:

What a journey!Tomorrow I’m getting a bus to Wigan and getting picked up on a rickshaw outside Last orders. That is taking me to Little Bispham were I will catch a tram to the north pier in Blackpool.
I’ll walk to the end of the pier and get inside a wooden barrel and will be rolled into the Irish Sea. If I’ve timed it right, the tide will be flowing North Westerly and thus will run ashore in Dublin on Wednesday. A quick 3 miles walk to the Dublin hot air balloon club, where I will have a bit of something to eat and then up up and away into the night sky meandering the Irish coast line before briskly soaring out across the Atlantic.
Again the timing and altitude after be bob on as this is the trickiest part of the journey. At exactly 6am on Friday morning I will attach my balloon to the wing of a low flying 747 heading to Kennedy Airport USA. At a speed approaching 500mph the journey will considerably speed up and I will detach my balloon 3 miles from Kennedy Airport and aim for Christor Beach. After landing in between a circle of large sand dunes I will abandon the now tatty air balloon and scour the beach in search of a famous giant turtle. I have given myself 2 hours for this, but hopefully it will take less than that. On finding the Giant turtle I will attach my specially made saddle which I will affix myself securely to and prompt the quizzically faced turtle, to head seaward towards the direction of Cuba.
With a bit of luck the turtle will have the strength to hold my heavy frame and keep its head above water for the long sea journey ahead.
I’m expecting to see the welcome sight of the Cuban coastline by the Wednesday before the match day.Once on Cuban Terra ferma I will take a taxi to the British Embassy where my mate who works there will have the necessary deportation papers and flight tickets waiting for me all stamped and authorised.
I will then have an overnight stay at the Korky Korky hotel and prepare myself for the final few stages of the journey.
I’ll be up at 5am to unicycle myself to the airport and will be airborne and heading for London Gatwick at 8:45am.Once landing at Gatwick I have arranged for a stretched limo to pick me up and take me to Plymouth Hoe. There I have booked a spa, mud pack and Italian massage at the Gigi spa and baths.
its now Friday before the game and I will be feeling refreshed and ready to go. I hope to be away about 6:30pm and will cover the next part of the journey using a pogo stick.
Should be within touching distance of London at 1pmm Saturday and with hands and feet full of blisters, will head towards Barnum’s circus big top located just on the South Side of London.
This is when it gets really tricky. If all the maths and calculations are bang on I will be lowered into the human cannon ball contraption and at 4:45 the fuse will be lit and boooooshaaaaak! Flying through the air at 215 miles an hour I will land on the centre circle at Wembley were my mates will have located the paddling pool they hopefully have managed to sneak through the turnstiles.I’M THERE!!! goodpostEither that or coach mate. :dry:

What a journey!If they’re now selling block 120 that means sales in the £60 seats are good. That’s one of the last blocks we can see in the £60 seats.I think we may get another 2 blocks, 121 and 122. The 60 dab tickets go all the way to block 127, but blocks 123 -127 will probably be Millwall. :woohoo:

As someone said, the best seats will be available on the last day of sales.If you want to pay £60 like me, you will probably be bang on half way line block 122/3 by the time the general sale lot are done.

What a journey!Even the saints fans are getting fed up of that dying “sport”.
My rugby watching mate says they normally sell out the north and take up sections of the east and West. :lol:They’ve never travelled well when they’re not expecting to win. If they beat us then there’ll have been 30,000 there.[/quote]
No doubt the attendance will be announced as 25,004.

What a journey!I bought 5 tickets this morning (26-3-13) in block 106Now you are right in the corner. Hope you got a high row number. :woohoo:

What a journey!I’ve got £60 tickets and wished I hadn’t bothered. I’m right at the front of block 118 which is in the corner and low down. When I tried to swap them the girl said they have to be sold according to ‘FA rules’ which seems to mean they sold the cr@p ones first!She also said that sales were quick to begin with but were actually very disappointing and they do not expect to sell beyond block 118 (blocks 119, 120, 121 and 122 will go back) :(
Don’t be too down hearted with block 118. The view from your seat is taken from the entry point to that block. The first row is level with the goal line then they move towards just past the penalty spot.
If you go onto this site you can actually find your seat if you count heads / bodies.
