Only 2 working days left and I have to say that productivity has been somewhat reduced this week as most of the time has been spent thinking about saturday and spending time on this board...... Anyway what am I hoping for..... That everyone who is travelling from near and far has a safe journey.... That there is no trouble either before, during or after the game..... That those sods in UNITE decide to cancel their tube strike action.... That all our tickets arrive in time.... That we all have enough time to catch up with our brethren on here in Hennessy's..... That Harold picks a side with the instructions to go out and play Derby off the park...... That the thought of 39k R's fans in full voice gives me goosebumps..... That the R's prevail and gain promotion...... That if we do lose we are magnanimous in defeat and wish Derby well for the coming season..... That we all get home safely at whatever hour of the day or night that might be..... Anything else to add?
I hope i can remember the day at all. When it comes to drinking I'm the biggest lightweight you'll ever meet. I fear my mind will be shot before I leave Hennessy's.
Well said. I would only add That if we win we are also magnanimous in victory and respectfull to the losers.
My hope for everyone that is there is that the team, whoever it may be, win or lose at the very least give a fantastic account of themselves. This game is far too important and too many people have made so much effort to be there for the team to produce a "no show" display as they have a number of times this season. I'm sure they'll play there hearts out and go on to record a tremendous win! (fingers crossed!!)
Great op Tramore. Looking forward to the day and meeting as many people as possible. Don't forget to remind me to give you the programme from the semi. Safe journey to all R's.
3 hopes to add from me. 1) That 10 minutes into the game, we're 3-0 up 2) that we win 3-0 (I'd like to be able to enjoy the game, not panic through it!) 3) That my mates son, who's sitting 4 rows back close to the goal, doesn't get hit by a stray screamer from Charlie Austin (his favorite player) If his dad, my mate gets hit, that of course is ok by me!!
we win, our flights are on time, we win, I keep my bladder under control, we win, we don't get too wet in the rain ( according to the forecast ) we win, find a good cafe for breakfast. we win.
