Wembley Plans

[Don Veets 73]

We're setting off tomorrow afternoon happy to say this will be the 5th time with my two lads ....irrespective of the result nothing beats a weekend away with family and with my friends that have been going to games since the 70's .. Have a great weekend people..

Love this, enjoy mate.

My 'little' lad turns 15 in August and living in North Shields (wife's fault honest) never shies away from who he supports.

He can't really remember his several Wembley visits other than Wycombe. My Dad has been there for every one with us and is going again this time.

Around minute 120 against Coventry I turned to my Dad and he was downbeat 'Son I thought I'd get to take you both to Wembley again'.

Now he has had serious health conditions for a healthy 65 year old but is much better so his concerns are justified but when Ballard ripped the net out I almost celebrated alone - Granda and Grandson crying and hugging.

I/we will be marching down Wembley Way again proud as punch that those heroes have given my boy that chance to have the memories with his Granda (I might enjoy it as well).

Sing it loud, sing it proud.

Enjoy your weekend everyone.

Right lads it’s the big travel day for us. Up and early to walk the dogs down to their “grandparents” one of which is coming down to London tomorrow !

Sleep was a case of “it’s alright relax and keep your eyes closed you have plenty of time to get to kip”

 

[TonyG]

Loads in town and Greggs this morning ! It’s happening !

Excellent, this will soon be like the 'do you recognise these people' bit on Crimewatch

Do you think we should all have stickers on with our alias written on them like you see on American TV shows school reunions?

From my mate driving to work from Darlington.

"Just driven into work, passed so many cars with Sunderland scarfs going the other way"

Safe travels to everyone heading down today, will see you all tomorrow

 

[Yorkie]

Driving there and back tomorrow. Will likely just head to the Green Man for convenience and as they’re raising money for the Bradley Lowery Foundation. Don’t know what other Wembley pubs are assigned gent to Sunderland- haven’t seen anything.
