Up in Edinburgh for the fringe from 7th - 11th so timing is great. In Tenerife for the first week in Sept, so fingers crossed for an away game that week.

Had a phone call a couple of weeks ago from a good friend who told me he was 'getting married in August'...

When I asked, the 5th he replied.

Result!

I booked a holiday last January to go away during the international break leaving on Sunday after a possible game and returning a week Friday. We will not miss a game whenever or wherever.

Cyprus from 9th August for 11 nights already booked so probably 2 games missed.

Nope. I'm getting married in August, and not only have I planned it for a Thursday, thus making a clash with a game extremely unlikely in the first place, but it's also international break week, thus ensuring with 100% certainty that neither I, nor any Albion-supporting guests, will miss out.

Absolutely deliberate on my part

Booked a holiday in Northern Spain travelling on the 12th (ferry from Plymouth) for 2 weeks. Probably miss 2 home games.

With typical timing, it will look like I'm moving out of the country semi-permanently in late July or early August, just in time for the start of Albion's great adventure. So yes.

That's why I wouldn't miss the Bristol City game for the world.

Oh FFS. I thought I was being all clever by booking my holiday in late July for this exact reason. We get back to Gatwick on August 12th at 4pm!!!!!! ARRRGGGHHH. *Prays for an away 1st game*

Yes, provided it's their first time in the Premier League.

The game will most likely be moved anyway!

But what if Sussex are in the T20 quarter finals?
