I think I might start kicking up a fuss on Twitter more often if it’s true Richard Overson paid this fans £1250 fee to move their holiday a day later with Jet2…

Thats me

And I've known Richard for a while. Hes a man who has the club and fans interests at heart.

Has done a lot more financially for the club than people know.

I didnt go cap in hand, i didnt even suggest he does something like that. He said to me he will do it so the kids dont miss it.

Im sure there will be some on here who will throw digs

As he says himself 'I'm just a normal bloke whos been lucky in life and I like to put that back where i can'

Does he have any charities close to his heart? It’s the kind of gesture that really deserves to be paid forward in some way - I’m sure fellow City fans would join.

Just thought I would check out the train prices before demand rockets.
Luckily for me I can go down on the Saturday and come back on the Monday.
Got tickets for £19.10 return with Avanti.
So my advice is book early.

Everything in the stadium has to be branded in euro or there sponsors for instance Pepsi big sponsor no coke allowed not fridges, taps etc. if Sony are a sponsor and all the screens are LG the logos have to be covered , beer etc it is a nightmare. They even dictate the music. I can’t stand European football competitions.

Gone are the days when everything was announced on a Thursday

Sunday is shit. Feels like they’re favouring Man C v Chelsea for the Saturday fixture, and just a load of excuses coming out to justify the choice.

Ah well, we’re there no matter what day we kick off.

Look pal, there are always people who will be jealous of anyone who does a good turn for someone else.
Same as they always queue up to knock people down as fast as they can I they get a chance.
I have never met this guy, just heard he is a great fan. Seems he has put plenty of money in to the club ( well a lot more than any of us) .
So good luck to the bloke, and if he has done you a good turn good luck to you.
Enjoy your holiday.

I think the most shocking thing about this, is that Jet2 charged you £1250 to move your Holiday by 1 day.

Don't spend a single penny once you're inside the stadium then.
Oh and bring your own coke
