**** me, I’m starting to get a bit nervy. Planned to set off for my 74 mile drive to the hotel at 8:30am But want to go now. In my mind I can see that I could get to the Fer Ark pub, have a couple of pints, get to Wembley Way and just stand there waiting for the day to build.
For the 2008 play off, I drove to Hull on the Friday, stayed with family and then six of us in my car (one in the boot) drove down to Harrow, parked at a pub (The Landlord actually paid me one of his outstanding parking fines and gave us all a lift to the station).
I drove back to Hull after the game and came back on the Monday.
This feels so similar.
Except one big difference.
What the club is doing for its supporters.
Does anyone remember being in a pub and the whole squad walked past. I think it was the FA Cup?
Just brilliant.

Everyone will have noticed but the news on this has largely been about Southampton, barely a mention of Hull and now even less about Boro. The supporters inconvenienced not at all.
Been out newsed by arse winning the league, Villa win a cup in Europe and now the England squad is announced.
Maybe tomorrow will be our newsworthy day.

I'm glad for me I'm about to go to sleep and then it's on to the game, I just want it to be here but I know it's going to be an absolute blur.
Hope you all have a brilliant, safe time down in London and head back up north with our PL team.

Thoughts for all those no longer here to share our excitement and pride. My personal thoughts are with my mate Phil, all those years driving the length and breadth of the country to watch City and dreaming of being at Wembley. That knowing, passionate hug we gave each other in 2008 meant we didn’t need words. Thankfully we made three more trips together but he’s not here for this one. More than anyone, I’ll be thinking of Phil tomorrow as the teams run out.
But Sunday from about 0245 will be glorious sunshine Syd...

Tiger Nation, 91 clubs about 10 million in Turkey and the EFL all behind us tomorrow...
Staying in Kilburn. Will head over there some time today
So tickets available but only to members ?
Just sell the tickets to people who want to buy them at this point
or is this another rule made by Wembley ?
Stops opposition fans getting tickets if its only to members.
