I managed to get some away tickets in the end after the initial fiasco. Would have gone in the home end otherwise. TBH - Im going to be chuffed and pissed off whatever the result. Been waiting 20+ years for the swans to play the gooners - and finally this weekend it arrives Really looking forward to the pre and post match activities around islington! Checked into the Pembury hotel for the Saturday night. Cant wait. First premiership game at the emirates. Only seen two emirates cup games previously. Watched one game at highbury - back in the glory days when we thumped Villa 5-0 - Henry free kick in the top right corner, with me chanting full voice - how do you feel Tommy Tommy (Sorenson)!!! LOL
By blind coincidence, a spot of nepotism and a hefty lump of luck, I have VIP hospitality in the Home end and free transport. It's all a bit, "someone I used to work for, who know a guy who isn't going, blah, blah...". I can tell you I'm elated at the thought of a day at the Emirates that shouldn't cost me much more than my usual day at the Liberty. As with what some of what you other guys are saying, I've been asked not to wear Swans colours and keep the goal celebrations to a respectable clap. Goal celebrations...
Shaper ... nice one ... check the terms and conditions of the hospitality service ... at Man City away colors were not allowed, also there may be some minimal dress code.
Shaper - dont forget the shoes and socks and give us common folk in the clock end a wave and throw us a sausage roll at half time. Not sure about keeping the goal celebrations to a minimum - chance would be a fine thing!
