    My youngest daughter’s fiancé is a hammers fan.
    I’ll see if I can go to that one.

    If we play a full, side, we have a chance. The Hammers will be focused on the league and Europe, so will almost certainly play an under strength side. The question is, how understrength….

    On the financial side don't we get 50% of gate receipts from cup games because that will be a good amount. A replay would be a good scenario but realistically we will probably lose which allows us to focus on the league without distractions.

    Even with an under strength side I can’t see us getting anything out of the game unfortunately

    Been there for a concert, took longer travelling through London to actually get to London. And doubled that time, getting home with everyone leaving same time.

    Not going now.
    Gutted.
    Last live game I went to in person was the Fulham game at Ashton Gate - last game before COVID lockdown under LJ - we robbed a draw.

    I desperately want to see a live game again

    I’m not sure if you’re aware, but LJ isn’t our manager anymore. :emoticon-0105-wink:

    I meant I want to see a live game again. It’s been too long.

    Well people can call me what they like. I’ve spent loads of money and time at Ashton Gate over the years.
    I’ve had a few ‘false starts’ recently too - I planned to go to a few games but didn’t because the trains were striking and I didn’t want to drive. I was liked up to go to the Boro game but a family issue cropped up - similar for the WHU game. We wanted to go with our youngest and her chap but they aren’t going to be around that weekend so we won’t go now. We were thinking of staying with them in Chelmsford - it would have been nice.
    Ah well - I’ll have to watch it on TV.
