We connected with a guy on sky blue talk and we’re meeting at New Horseshoes

We arrived at the hotel and had an envelope but it included only a parking pass and no tickets!! I assume we can get them re-printed at the stadium. Also, we lost 1 member of our trip before we even got on the plane so there are only three of us and we have an extra ticket if any one want a...

Remember, we are all massively obese Americans.. so we all have natural insulation.. thinking of wearing shorts :finger:

We fly out on Wednesday. Still hoping we can persuade a couple City fans to meet up for a beer before or after the match. Just trying to repair that damage Trump is doing around the world.. its the very least we can do..

Thanks for heads up!

Houston is a pretty big city.. but ya never know.

Thanks for all the help and advice for those who participated in the thread. I'll check back in closer to match day on Friday, Nov 23 to see if anyone is wants to meet up for a beer.

3 of us should be ok with the single seat.. However, Rafa "Big Papi" Ortiz may be getting cozy with his neighbour. :emoji_open_mouth:

East Stand Block 20 Row B

That's too bad.. but you're headed the right direction weatherwise!

Thanks.. we've got a bit an age range with the youngest 29yo.. but you may be right!! However, we're not quite "pipe and slippers" yet..

I've got a feeling that our first stop in Coventry may be the most fun of the trip. If you see four "knobheads" that look out of place .. that's probably me, Rafa, Roman or Farley. Please say hello and let us at least buy you a beer! I appreciate the help and advice ( even Rumpo!!)

Thanks for the advice. Kasbah post match sounds good. Youth Football in the US is a "pay-to-play" club system costing between $1500 - $2500 a year for each 7yo -17yo. The guys I'm traveling with work very hard and volunteer to coach a bunch of kids who don't have the money to pay to participate...

Our budget wouldn't stretch to a CL match that night.. so beggars can't be choosers..

Just west of 610 Loop in the Memorial Villages area.

Not me I'm afraid. I had an friend and co-worker from Leamington ( now lives in Alpine, TX) who introduced me to the joys of Cov City and managed to catch a match with his dad at the old ground many years back.

I'm guessing the weather will be shite..but a change is as good as a rest as the saying goes.. still 84 F here in Houston today!

That looks pretty close to the Stadium. Great. Thanks

yep.. pretty sure that's where they filmed the Coventry version of Broke Back Mountain.. but you'll know better than I.

not really.. although we do take the kids teams to matches pretty often and Dynamo will give out discounted tickets to the local youth teams to fill the stadium.
