Too bloody right ... that was a very poor rendition!

The players need a manager they are willing to succeed for, and I see that in Robins.

Physical as well as mental health?

Did you still think they were gonna score last minute? The occupational hazard of being a Sky Blue! Watched the highlights last night, and I never realized in real time how good that initial save was by Burge during the scramble - or how calm Bigi was. More I watch it, the better Bigi looked...

Jesus, not more talk of people shitting themselves??! By the way, I think the ref's watch stopped for about two minutes in added time!

That'll be the 45 minute highlight show rather than the whole match, no? If you have a Fire-stick there must be a stream on an app somewhere on there?

We were all holding our breath waiting for the noise from the Oxford fans to tells us it was over the line. Carlsberg indeed (Wasps losing too!)

Up in the Gods in 528, it was pretty loud. One thing I would say is that the Sky Blue Song always seemed to start behind and to the left of the goal, so it took until about the third line to reach us and get everyone singing, so I think there were only a couple of really powerful renditions...

Ickenham worked well for me. A couple of minutes from the A40 at Hillingdon, loads of parking for £1.50 all day (on Sunday), and 20 minutes on the Metropolitan Line to Wembley Park. Far enough out to avoid potential traffic madness.

I think the GPS thingies monitor biometric data on the players too - heart rate, oxygen saturation, etc. Helps in their training, apparently. Rugger-buggers have little pockets in the back of their jerseys to hold them, and they get taken out for analysis as soon as they get off the pitch (if...

It was amazing how many people were still not back from half time by the time George scored the second. There was a bunch of know-it-all types in the row in front of us (528, row 8) who missed it cos they were obviously more bothered about stuffing their faces! Couldn't get a ticket in '87, so...

Oh yeah, just remembered seeing that bottom pic, the ridiculousness of the fireman having to wait for the ref's permission to enter the field of play to deal with the smoke bomb! WTF?! Will share mine when I have uploaded from camera (if they are any good)

Bigi was in the right place at the right time to take his goal brilliantly after the (albeit lucky) rebound, which calmed the nerves a bit! He had a couple of key interceptions, and stopped it on or close to the line a number of times (including that last minute melee, where we were all just...

How long before he starts slagging Grendel or Tony, though?

Yeah they have a multi-storey, and a surface car park, as well as a big area the other side of Old Budbrooke Road (right at the lights if coming from the A4177 Brum Rd). You can always buy a car park ticket for the appropriate length of time from the ticket office at the station. I assume it's...

They might have *requested* that the flag size be changed, but it is down to the people who run Wembley to make the decision. Also on that post, Laura Hunter should have been emailing the Editor, NOT Mr Gilbert. He doesn't run the paper, no matter what he might like to think. Poor call from her...

They'll probably be on the 0951 from Warwick Parkway

Yeah, that bloody awful bank of red seats opposite the cameras, which stay empty until about 20 minutes into the game while they choke on their prawn sandwiches.

Especially if in the wife's convertible! Need to figure a way to attach my scarf to it, as it looks like being a nice day. Got a tingle down my spine when I heard CWR's new news jingle yesterday afternoon "6 days to go. The Sky Blues are going to Wembley" Can't wait to hear the Sky Blue Song...

Either that or they deliberately held them back for latecomers, as the front few rows of Tier 5 were priced at the next price point weren't they?
