I arrived 10 mins late. Cracking away point that.

Aha! Sadly on this occasion you'll be relying on someone else for that purpose (and, um, all the other purposes I may have served) as I'll be somewhere in Chianti-shire

Cricket! And beer! Woo!

As pondlife goes, he does seem to be the pondiest.

Wait, is it normal to wash duvets?

That doggy sure will think twice before he goes sniffing around so carelessly again.

So what happens when you miss it and the rest of us are stuck on a slow train with no quiz?

When I did the Great North Run last year (ooh look at me...) everywhere there were families cheering on encouragement. Like they lived along the route and they'd just popped out of their houses to gee up a bunch of strangers who happened to be running past. Middle aged geordie women shouting how amazing everyone was doing, kids getting hi-fives from runners, people handing out biscuits and drinks (incl. beer). It did strike me that you would never, ever, get such a thing in London. Tourists here in general can piss off though. Tube best avoided on weekends.

Ah yes I'm one of those. I'm here for my upboats.

What an absolute :censored:ing spongecake

In. To mix things up a bit, how about we buy the tiger bread pre-match and smuggle it INTO the stadium?!

Always been quite a fan of this place http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/63/6376/Mabels_Tavern/Euston

See you in the C+H at about 6. My friends from across the pond won't know what's hit em.

I'm coming and I'll be bringing some North American sports hipsters who wanna watch some soccerball. Coach & Horses pre-game?

AFC Wimbledon is gonna be a bitch to include too.

Got one sorted now. Phew! Thanks to everyone who PM'd and tried to help.

Have PMd greengrass. Let's see

Hello. Due to a monumental mix-up, the likes of which we'd only generally witness on the pitch from a Latics defence, one desperate Tic is without a ticket for Liverpool tomorrow. If you happen to have a spare, or can arrange for anyone you know's spare to help this hapless fan, please do PM me. There may also be a reward involved.

I'm coming to this from the northerly direction. Hopefully get there about 1ish. What pub pre-match?

I'll aim for the same train gents

Coming

Tops

There's trains at 00 and 30 past each hour from Paddington, each taking ~1h40mins to get to Temple Meads... summat around 10:30/11am? Not too bothered about staying over either, so for getting back..... there's the 19:30? Bit early? That or the 20:33 which lands us back at 22:16 in time for a London nightcap/incident involving platform snooze.

Yes? No? It may be a bit far but I'm hearing rumours of an overnight stay for some.
