Looking forward to being in the away end at Elland Road but not arsed about Leicester. Not a "rivalry" I care about, just something that gets aggy when we're in the same division. They're in the same place of the Derby/Forest/Leicester trio as we are in the Blues/Villa/Cov trio so we latch onto...

Watching Monaco as a way to hopefully distract myself. Just got very interesting with the rain.

Gus and Vik are going and will hopefully bring in £20-30m between them, this is all just part of the process and we have to trust it. In my opinion we'll bring in young, hungry players as per usual but probably of a higher initial quality than previously, possibly for £2-4m rather than ~£1m...

I feel at peace with it atm. Not sure I'll ever be able to watch the highlights but it's all been so surreal for the last 2 weeks that I'm just kind of drawing an emotional blank. I'll probably watch the PL games later then have a break from football for a while while I process it. Can't think...

I'm going to sleep like a log tonight. As gutted as I am, the weight of all the stress, anxiety and tension of the past couple of weeks just evaporated on the way home.

Oh Ted

Just got on at Parkway. This train took most of the queue, only about 20 people left so shouldn’t be any issues now

Big queue at Parkway but the last train halved it and not many people turned up since. Amusingly, stood next to someone in the queue who’s not going to the footie and had no idea it was on. Think she’s a student going home, not happy at all [emoji23]

Parkway already rammed according to Twitter. Part of me wonders if this is just the initial early rush and it will die down a bit, wouldn't bank on it though.

Decision made, family comes first. Just told Mum she's coming and she's made up. Been to many games down the years but never to Wembley so it's extra special. On that note if we lose tomorrow I know without doubt that's she's bad luck.

"Hi, is that Notts County? Hold my beer"

Just watched it. The content is good but it sounds like his batteries are running out at the end of every sentence.

Loved that, Robins is someone to be so proud of as a fan. Got to say Prutton has become one of my favourite hosts/interviewers as well. Wasn't sure about him when he first started but he's honed the skill and gets his charisma and intelligence across well now.

Thrown into the insomnia mix is having to decide who gets my last ticket, mum or best mate. Horrible choice to make and everyone I've asked has just gone "You bought them so you decide :)". As if I don't have enough fucking stress, led awake for hours last night.

Haven't got this season's home shirt but went to buy it after the Boro game, wanted to be up to date now we've made it to Wembley. Then realised wearing last season's has got us to where we are so didn't.

Just got the train from London to Manchester, (un)surprising amount of Londoners on the platform in United shirts heading to the game. My favourite was the guy who ended up sitting in front of me who said it was "fackin' disgastin'" that a young girl at Stockport was wearing a City shirt rather...

The Athletic Football podcast have a new episode purely about the game

Was buying for a friend in my network because he was in a meeting. 2 in the basket, put my card details in, they disappeared. Wtf.

The King's Ginger. I think it's only 30%, got a bit of a kick and really nice with a decent apple juice. On a side note, it was made for drink driving originally when Edward VII got a car - "a liqueur which would warm and revivify His Majesty during his morning rides"
