Good man @dubai_phil

@barry-sanchez you get into Euston at 11am and you are a 9 minute tube journey from the pub. I’ll meet you there at 11:30(that will give you enough time to realise you got on the train going in the wrong direction and change). Leave the pub at 1pm and you will have time to get your ticket and have another pint or two before going into the stadium.

He’s got no interest in meeting. It’s all very easy for him to, so I would take it as a no interest situation like last year. Or he’s not really there.

I so wanted to get a picture of you, him and @pap together(arms around each other, like brothers).

I know you and @pap are more than happy to socialise and thought some of that famous northern friendliness had rubbed off on @barry-sanchez

I’ll even take him to Wembley at 1pm if he’s bothered about finding his way around. Maybe meet up with @lifeintheslowlane

That picture would be a very beautiful thing. Whatever you do though - escort Barry to Wembley, make sure he gets his ticket and an additional pint or three, whatever - I have one piece of advice for you. Dont try to sneak a hip flask full of expensive rum into Wembley.

Strange thing is, that’s the first time i have ever been stopped anywhere. Not even customs and i once came back into the country in the 90’s looking a complete wreck and without a passport. Was so pissed I lost it between countries. Took my name and address, then waved me through. They found it later and dropped it off to my house the next day(which was very nice of them). Even called an American customs officer “a bit thick” and fully explained why. No problem, through you go, not even a pat down.

Go to Fulham though and get treated like a criminal. Don’t they understand quality, despite the affluence all around them? No sane person would question my disbelief at the suggestion i “tip it on the floor”.

Fucking backward cunts.

I’m driving down. The missus is driving me back, so being on the beer is no problem. We’re achieving multiple objectives. Young Adult Unit #1 has not been well lately, needs a big ginger hug, so ms pap is being deployed to the target area,

£80 each on the train. Cheeky bastards.

Barry has been to meetups before, but famously fucked off somewhere completely different for the last Wembley appearance.

Theories abound as to why this might be the case. Was it a power play, an attempt to get the Sotonians mountain to move to one of the biggest critics of followers of Muhammed? Or was it simply that it was a big occasion, Bazza’s fair weather fan mates are all hardcore EDL types, all wanted to go, and he knew the jig would be up the minute we clapped eyes on them?

I’m convinced @undefined is probably only about 10 years old and will be attending with his silver coiffed dad

I have 7 tickets available if anyone wants to go.
