Suppose its what you call justice!! Managed to find a south stand ST holder willing to lend me his ticket so i could go today instead of thursday.(not that i needed it !!!)..only to find that the only 46 quid tickets i could get were behind the goal, which i dont want !! Grrrr....but looking at how many at that price theyve got to flog on the second tier before they move onto to lower tier down side its gonna be the day before wembley before i get them!! Tried ringing ticket office to see if they were selling a different block, but cant buy more than 9 over phone !! So a wasted day all round. Glad i didnt go till there were no queues or id be even more annoyed. Serves me right for moaning in the first place.

I may be lying

although my idea that we don't need to drink on the train as we are on the 7.11am and will be in London before 10am has been met with derision from other members of our travelling group

Drinking then would be tempting but ultimately stupid.

We're OK as we have a Saturday night in the smoke to get spannered. Think we're going to head out to Kingsbury Sunday AM.

Doesn't appear to stop you doing them...

I'm on the half 8 train down so probably won't bother til we get there but will celebrate/commiserate afterwards.

The problem is with early drinking, I find, is that you drink far more than planned.

I can see it now, 'I'll just take four cans for the train', will become those being supped by Market Harborough, a couple more bought and two more 'just for the road' at St Pancras. Before you know it you're a gallon down before 11am and it's a slipperly slope!
