Not worth the backlash on social media

Only 17 for me. Don’t do Charity Shields and only done 3 semis. Did manage the Spurs cup final in Covid. Had to have a Lancashire, Cheshire or Manchester postcode I think and, even though I live in Barrow, our postcode is LA as it used to be in Lancashire until 1974. Problem is I follow England...

Yep

Surprised there’s no trains back to Warrington for night matches. I live in Barrow and can get the 2217 train home. Have to leave right on the final whistle though.

Trains north got cancelled. Only option for us was 1848 from Piccadilly so had to leave on 85 mins. Same for night matches. I hate leaving but 2216 train is our only option home so tend to leave on 90 mins.

Probably not a popular view but I’d be happy to pay a premium to be guaranteed my seat for every game and have first dibs at away tickets.

I’ve forgiven him. Nobody gets everything right so Pep’s 95% is probably about as near to perfect as anyone can ever be.

Held in for quite a while. When we got to the station on the way there we were herded and marched by police to the ground. We did a runner down a side road half way there and found a decent bar. Pretty sure they said there was no alcohol being served in Monaco to try and get us to stay in Nice...

I’ve still got a programme somewhere

Does that include Barrow? Being a Barrovian, I’ve seen City play here twice, once under John Bond and once under Peter Reid. Both were testimonials and both times City put out a very decent side.

Next week in Serbia will be my 100th away with England and I’ve done plenty with City too. Started following England away as no chance of City playing in Europe at the time. Nowadays, it’s an excuse to meet up with mates but I much prefer City for the games. In all that time, I’ve never done a...

This is only a good idea if you don’t want away tickets.

Interesting that we got 8000 more tickets for this final compared with Stoke in 2011. Can only put it down to less Club Wembley members and nowhere near the amount of interest in the FA cup from the neutrals.

Club Wembley members can buy extra tickets until 10am tomorrow so wonder if ours will go off sale then too?
