I know its a few months away but anyone thinking of going, ive just found Trains on sale for just £23 return!! Worth a look and book now for anyone thats interested...
Booking when I get paid. We'll be a bunch of ppl on the 09:20 from Euston I think.
Check potential Europa dates nearby first if I were you - we may not be still in at that stage but suspect Citeh will be (should they get knocked out of the CL).
Good ground though, good day out too.
No ive already checked, this game wont be affected!!
Yessiree, flying over and having a weekend in Manchester !

Ledge!
No chance that Sky will snaffle this as a live match and change the time...?
No I dont reckon so....
Sod it even if they do im only paying 40 quid for a train and hotel and can still have a weekend up north!
Always love City away...be it Maine Road or the new place...will be going down the Townley as normal...it was featured on MOTD with Ricky Hatton last week....had a great time in there prior to the Kamara 3-2 win...what a day that was.
We are the whites
What dates the City game? I'd fancy the trip down and also Utd in March as I've a few Utd mates up here so would be a great weekend however just hard to get tix I'd imagine

Where in the world do you ski in England? You have to be going to another country right.

Wow, ok. How big is the place? England doesn't have any out door ski resorts do they?

Not sure you're right about that Don. Scotland has some, but I don't think we have any.
As for the one in Manc Land:

I'd forgotten all about that one. I think it shut some years ago though after a fire. Now that's irony.

Shut years ago mate, its actually in Uxbridge. QPR were rumoured to be sniffing around there a few years back for a potential site for a new ground.

Exactly! I promised some guys from my local a pint each if they came with us. ;)
There is a dry ski slope just down the road from me at Sandown Park.
And also at Crystal Palace (the place rather than the football club) - although it is many moons since I have been there so that one may have closed down by now.

Ah yes, bribes should do the trick. Fully Cannot wait for this one! :clap_hands:
Myself and 3 others on the 11.20,just hope sky don't move the bloody game now.
I'm not going but you all know its on ESPN at 5:30 don't you?
I wanted to go when it was at 3 o'clock. Change for TV was on the cards though.
Would not fancy a coach back after the game.
All it needs now is engineering works on the railway or heavy snow and there will be additional misery.
YUp, confirmed as 5.30 kick off on the offal, makes it a bit of a sterner test of drinking prowess is all.
