Pre-Wembley chat ...

**** that

Some will crave the attention, but not me

 

Only 5 places left...

 

Fake news?

 

Not anymore unfortunately

 

Don't think I'll go in for this as I'll probably be taken off air straight away due to the language! I could just imagine being asked for my opinion and saying that the Tranmere player was a cheating diving bastard and no way was that a ****ing foul!

Dunno how all this works but I had an email about this yesterday from someone asking if I was Reiver and whether I would respond by email. I ignored it but I'm now interested for a reason I don't want to mention. So I'll now email and see what's what.

Really getting up for the Cup Final now.

 

Looking forward to the match. It's an important game to keep momentum going for the promotion race. Our team is playing at Wembley and there's a chance to win a shiny silver thing, what's not to like? It's a huge shame we can't be there, but let's bookmark this weekend as an important footnote in the start of the change for us. Now bring it home lads.

 

Feeling abit dull today, would usually travel down the day before Wembley, would of been leaving early tomorrow morning, trying to pick out all the Sunderland flags in the car windows and on the bridges on the way down

 

It is a shame ain’t it. Saved us all about a grand I suppose.

Been happy to spend it like.

 

Yeah mate I’m looking forward to the game, but finding it abit hard to get up for it at the moment, will probably change on Sunday morning, but the buzz of the build just hasn’t happened, my virtual ticket come yesterday, usually when you get the ticket, a little butterfly flutters about in the stomach,

 

We will all be game as a badger come Sunday mate, don’t worry about that!

 

We always have 3 or 4 days down there and really make it count with Trafalgar Square/Covent Garden, good meals, theatre/museum visits, meet ups, etc.

We can't do that but we'll still make the absolute most of it.

It's up to us all to support the Lads, but more importantly each other and make sure that we enjoy watching the club that we love playing at the national stadium.

Can't wait for this. Haway the Lads!!!

This weekend has reminded me of when my dad and I went to Wembley for the 90 playoff final. My sister lives in the Midlands so me, my mam and dad traveled down the day before and my sister's ex at the time had a 7 seater car so on the day of the match, he drove us all down to London. I had a couple of scarves with me so my mam got me to put them through the sunroofs, to show our colours driving down. And everytime we overtook either a bus or a car showing Sunderland colours, she made my sister's kids wave - much to their embarrassment! My mam was never that into the football side but she enjoyed the occasion I think. Not going down this weekend, brings these memories to the fore

 

Match is on Live in Aus, Bein 2

 

Had a trial run tonight...... it went well.

 

Gutted this morning like. What a weekend this would’ve been.

 

Driving passed the AOL this morning at 7:30 and here was the team coach on it’s way down to pick the team up. I’d been quite so-so about things so far this week and I just got goose bumps all over when I was driving along and now again as I type. I think I’be finally got Wembley fever! Ha’Way the Lads!

 

LeeJohnson will be interviewed in his garden on FootyFocus today, by all accounts. Us featuring on bigtelly feels like an old school cup final weekend.

I will watch the show at 12, for a change.....

 

I'm going to start my pre match build up by meeting some friends at Seaburn at seven in the morning for an early morning swim.
