I'll be sofa surfing and out on the lash with an old school mate in north London......basically same plan as the playoff last year....but hoping to avoid the defeat and the sunburn this time around....

..also, no jinx, but me and my mate left school in 1987. Just saying.

Sky blues....shooting to win...

Train down from Manchester in the morning, going to batter any United fans who even dare to look over at us. Try and find somewhere to have a booze when we land.

Train back after hopefully.

Drive down from East Yorkshire on Saturday night and stay with my parents in Nuneaton. Meet old friend on Sunday morning and get coach from Nuneaton at 10am (which seems a little late to me, but hey ho).

What time does everyone aim to get in the ground?

I was surprised by how cheap the beer was, think it was £6/7 a pint at the playoff final, I was expecting it to be like a tenner. There was a decent atmosphere in there too.

Driving down to Wealdstone FC in Gandalf (Grey VW Transporter) with 5 others in tow, setting off around 9am from Nuneaton. (Honk if you see us or are horny) Few beers and BBQ there. Tubing in to Wembo, maybe drop in the fan park for a scoop or two.

Eat a Kendal Mint cake ready for the assault on the summit of Tier 3.

Then convince Mrs Edge, she has to drive home.

Get the overground train from Watford Junction to Wembley Central ( turn right when you enter the station ). Cheaper than the tube and only takes 30 mins .

Getting the train from Cosham (just outside Pompey) at 10.34am, get into Waterloo around 12.30am. Head up to Wembley to meet my step dad and a couple of others for a couple of drinks pre-game, head into the stadium about 3pm, celebrate the first of our 3 goals at 3.39pm.

Watching the wife run the London Marathon so won't be attending the game. Her start time is 10:45 so I've asked if she can do a sub 2 hour marathon so we can watch it in the pub. No pressure

Train from Maidstone, Kent 8am (packed with Man U, Liverpool and West Ham fans probably).
Brekkie at a spoons, couple of beers in The Feathers with CCLSC, Baker Street, Green Man, fan walk to stadium, soak up stadium atmosphere, enjoying the day and the game regardless of result.

It’s surprisingly good in there - on a couple of occasions we’ve got there not long after gates open and it’s been great on the concourse with a view of the fanzones etc. If the Green Man is rammed then we might do the same again this year.

No it won't be. You wouldn't even realise it's on unless you are going into Westminster
