Not too bad a journey for me from Malvern. Should take about 1¼ hours. Trouble is, I'm off fishing all day Thursday. Missus will probably moan if I say I'm off for the day on Saturday as well! Bloody wives!

Moved to Malvern a year ago today Mark. Regretting a bit though.

 

[wantageskyblue]

I’m going as it is only 20 minutes down the road for me. Hoping to get to St.Andrews for the 1st game too.

 

[ccfc1234]

I will be there should be a decent day out in the sunshine.

Spent the first two years on the West Wight - Totland Bay, then moved over to Newport. In total we were on the island for 8 years. Didn't miss it at first but we've been back for a visit since and realised we'd jumped the gun a bit. Ah well. These things are part of life.

Bonus, I didn't know about this match at all. I'll take my lad on the train only 30 mins from me. Assuming it'll be pay on the gate

 

[Ricketts]

I am washing my hair.

(Actually I am going to be at Silverstone for the classic.)

 

[sw88]

Was thinking of it. If the weather is shit I might, as the alternative is working in the garden!

How times have changed when gardening would come before football :emoji_grimacing:

 

[Terry_dactyl]

What time’s kick off?

Regretting it! What!! It’s the most beautiful place on earth!

I may be slightly biased in this matter

Aren't the met office predicting thunder storms and rain this weekend?

 

[Tomh111]

I'm going, only 20 mins for me.

Also taking my 6 year old nephew to his 1st ever football game.

What an absolute spectacle of football for him to reminisce about in a few years.

Weirdly I think the my first ever match may have been Swindon Town Vs a Man United XI during a pre season, couldn't say what year but would have been v. early 90s

Didn't stick enough at that point for me to attach my self to either team but I do still keep half an out for both their results.

Some how it took my dad taking me to Cov Vs Derby in 1998, 1-0 win then followed up by a nil nil draw a month later with Wimbledon to get me hooked

I regret the move from the island. Not so much Malvern. It is a beautiful place but for me and 'er indoors, it is far to hilly.

Haha, I would think the “Malvern Hills” would’ve been a clue there! Anyway, good exercise for you!!

Urggghhhh I don't wish to know about your ring

 

[Fergusons_Beard]

I know it’s only a friendly but this game will be a real measure of what our season will start off like.

Swindon rightly one of the favourites to win league two and on paper have a very strong side.

Really looking forward to testing ourselves against them
