You haven’t seen the attendees. I’ve been going for about 10 years. They have a jazz band with the same line up and the youngest must have been at least 65 even then - they play the same tunes every year only slower each time…
Just realised this is an early kick off. Drinks after?
A glimmer of hope…
The only (non FA Cup) games we’ve won this season have been when I have not watched.
I will now be in a taxi to the airport at exactly the moment we kick off, then doing the whole bag drop and security. The reason this could be good news is this is our 1st time on Low Cost FlyDubai so we have no frequent flier stuff - we are just cattle.
Equally, it is a different Terminal on the completely other side of Dubai’s main airport and we have never been there before so no idea if they even have WiFi out in the sticks.
Boarding at 14:30 your time as well so may not even be able to follow text updates
This may be a lucky day…
Had a dream last night that Bedarek opened the scoring for us then Chelsea scored two quick goals. Woke up before the final whistle so I can’t give you the score though.
Well do us a favour Phil and make sure you don’t find it on in one of the departure lounge bars!
We need all the help we can get.
They have wifi and a bar @dubai_phil
Have you never done the Visa run to Kish from Terminal 2?
You have missed out if not.

We are under way and my old man has been telling me its pissing down where as the BBC say
A gorgeous sunny day on the south coast.
