Do you want to borrow the DeLorean?

I have to ask...where the hell were you in 1999 v London then ?

Can't think of anything worse than wasting my money to go to a final as a neutral. For me all the thrill is in watching my team there, and having the nerves and anticipation.

I enjoy it as a neutral, but on the tv. My money is better spent elsewhere.

Proxy server? Check out Proxy uk, about a fiver for the month and watch the beeb online till your hearts content. I've done it for the cup this year. But for that at home feeling I Skype with dad. He points the camera at the tv! I can check him out shouting at the tv! Very amusing.

Other commitments. Still a sore subject.

Could you not be discharged, or was it a discharge problem ? You can be honest here amongst friends

It had more to do with having previously solemnly sworn that I'd be at another function that day and not really feeling like I could let people down. It was a youthful idealism that I have since lost.

Anyway, there'd be lots of other chances to see Leeds win the cup. Wouldn't there?

You cant think of anything worse than going to a show piece final of a sport you support?

Strange

proxy uk Thanks sgt i'll have a go

McLaren Field will be having words with you, he hates the cup final drunks!

Me too.

When Iused to go on those cup final weekends setting off at 7am etc.I could never for the life of me start drinking at such an unearthly hour before we set off.

Only because he got so ratted one year he can't remember being at Wembley, and in fact refuses to believe that he ever went, or that the final ever happened. In fact, I think he refuses to believe the year happened.

When we used to do the final in a day, we had a strict rule about when we could start drinking, just to keep the day sensible. No one was allowed a drop until we went past the YEP building.

I have vivid memories (unlike them...) of being on a coach to Cardiff in 2003 and passing a mini-bus full of youths at about 5:30am being, as the term goes, lairy and bouncing around waving cans of Stellas at us.

We passed them again in a traffic jam at about 7:00, by which time they were all sound asleep, one with his face squashed against the window and a nice bit of drool...

I was still having breakfast and didn't start on the pop until lunch time.

This sounds like Lawrie L who tried to act the big man on the Wembley trip last year, drinking Jagermeister at 6am on the bus....his day ended when he made a prat of himself puking on people on Wembley Way! I don't know why the drunks do it!

Thats correct, 1972 never happened - its official.

The first I saw of it was in the programme at the 2005 final - true story.

its the time differance and its free



last year i sky plused it only for some american news channel to tell the score

Do you still need use of the DeLorean?

Otherwise I'll cancel the valet.

Can it go back to a year that never happened ?

Of course.

I'll rent it for 40 years ago then, if I set the dial wrong and bring it back next week there won't be any excess payments will there ?

It's limited mileage though. I thought you needed it for going to sell your wares.

It could have quite a lot of excess miles over 40 years though, its bad enough trying to keep to a limit on a three year lease.

Ah, you only need the DeLorean to get there.

You will have to invest in a pony'n'trap when you get there
