The "I'm not going to the final" thread

[Pigeonho]

My mate is having a 'final' party, hopefully get the BBQ running if the weather lets us. 12 oclock start, then onto the local afterwards.

Morning Pidge-I know what you are saying pal,but still not the same however I know my responsibilities..The wife has actually said "Al,just go if you want we will sort it" but I am thinking she is testing me...Still,big brownie points for me...

That's as definite of a test you'll ever face, and fair play to you!
We did it at another guys house for the 2011 final, and what a fucking day it was too. Threatened to get nasty at one point, as the pub where we were doing our night time celebrating is right next door to a United pub, who were celebrating their title win. Some calm heads sorted that though and nothing came of it.

Ok. Please tell me I am not on my own. Now I am 95% certain I won't be at wembley due to my wife going on a hen do In Leeds and I promised I would have the kids. The 5% possibility is dependent on the mother in law.

To say I am gutted is an understatement. I have been giving it "you go and have a loveley time" etc etc yest deep down I am really pissed off.

Looking at the kick off time and potential nightmares for getting home I am sort of happy I can at least watch it on tv but these are the days we have craved for so long and I am having to miss it. Sick as a chip..

Anyone else in my boat?

man up. and tell her indoors YOUR going to the final end of

Brownie points plus...........When the kids get older you can always remind them of the huge sacrifice you made for them. Its what being a parent is all about.:)
