I don't know if this will effect things or not, but Swansea play away against Liverpool in the Premier on Saturday 21st January. The following Saturday they have no game at all as it is the FA Cup, having been knocked out in the last round.

Just wondered if this might change Swansea's approach to our Checkatrade game or not. After the Liverpool game they have no match for 10 days.

 

[Otis]

Apart from ours.

Do they not know who you are and your role on here

I just went past Wembley stadium. I shouted through the window 'See you in April you beauty! '

Bit presumptive you think?

Could depend on what your choice of transport was and in what direction the wind was blowing, and if the window was open of course. But yes, probably presumptive although cup half full.

I was driving the 16.31 Birmingham New Street to London Euston at the time.

Well I am quite a steady sort of chap, so unlikely to go off the rails.

 

[Liquid Gold]

I've been offered a lift and have holiday to take at work, might actually go.

 

[aloisiwouldhavescored]

Is this likely to be a 7pm kick off?

7.30pm kick off.
Presume the home game against Port Vale (already re-arranged once) for Wed 25 January will be called off and rearranged again.

Sometimes I have to read between the lines to keep track on your witt.

That's the ticket!

 

[Wheelfass]

Yes. It's nice to have this platform to let off steam and express ourselves isn't it.

 

[chiefdave]

Are any of these games televised?

 

[Otis]

Yes. It's nice to have this platform to let off steam and express ourselves isn't it.

That's first class that.

Nice to know there's no barriers to your humour and you're still onboard with it and even though you know your station in life, there seems to be no sign of you hitting the buffers anytime soon.

Not until the semi-final I don't think and even then I think Sky will reserve the right to look look at who is is playing who.

They have steered clear so far.

You're right Otis. I always like to keep things on the level,crossing over to dreary posts wouldn't tender much support would it. I'm here for the long haul and wouldn't want anyone blowing the whistle on me for dull content, after all you never know who may take offence so I'm always on my guard.

I would absolutely love to go this game. My last away game was 1988.

Seeing as we have a train driver in our midst, see if he can get hold a train and do a one off run from Coventry to Swansea (and back of course).

Nearly 4 hours on a train, 4 hours back Quicker to drive!

Dead easy. Piece of piss.

Coventry to Birmingham. Change at Birmingham. Birmingham to Bristol Temple Meads. Change at Bristol. Bristol Temple Meads to Cardiff. Change at Cardiff. Cardiff to Swansea.

Then walk.

and £6.70 to cross the severn bridge

 

[shy_tall_knight]

No bridge toll if you drive from Cov as go via Newport down the M50

 

[tom88]

Good news is that either Oxford or Bradford will be out if we get to the semi final

He seems like a tight sod so I bet that's when he turned 18 & adult prices! ; )

 

[steve82]

Ticket prices are what we should of done like previous years.
Cannot see a big turn out still tho, 3 hours on a Tuesday evening..

Should have thrown in a free pie deal for away fans, to compensate for the nightmare journey
