Is there any confirmation anywhere yet as to who has travelled as weren't there supposed to be a load more tests on their players and staff this morning.

Does The Goat still play for them? Paolo Wanchope? Somebody Brightwell?

Think they all played the last time I saw us play them at Maine Road. Some of their more ‘enthusiastic’ young urchins were a pain in the arse afterwards.

Some excitement when a ticket was delivered just now.
Only very slightly dampened on seeing that it was for Mansfield.

Oh well, an unscheduled trip to the CG it is then.

What time realistically should we be rocking up to the CG tonight? I know the club says be in the ground by 7:15 but if I arrive at 7:30 for example, am I likely to miss kick off? Last time I went to the CG we used to time it to get in for the players coming out of the tunnel! Clearly a lot has changed since then.

I'd get there for 6 just to be on the safe side.

I see City are flying back from Brize at 11.45 tonight so they will be hoping to avoid ET or pens or it could get to be a bit of a rush!

Booked Los Gatos for 5.45, that's a decent tapas in Old Town isn't it? Is that the one Flammable Ben used to work at?

Well congratulations to all on making this one of the longest and most bizarre match day threads ever, and we are still 6 hrs away from kick off..

Anyone going down to the CG today for tickets - they are not allowing anyone to park in the car park, stewards are turning everyone away, so you have to go and find somewhere else to park up in the side streets.

Programmes are £5 also rather than the usual £3.50 (I think its a cup final edition !)

I have particularly enjoyed the plane spotting. Can this be a regular feature; albeit the journey of the away team coach as picked up by ANPR.
