Having just payed for my coach travel to the Amex for the 2025/26 season, it got me wondering it’s 11 weeks today until the new season starts, what’s everyone else going to be doing?

For me as little work as possible and a couple of trips abroad.

Hope everyone has a great summer.

Enjoying no football. Will probably waste too much time on here looking at potential transfers. But we watched a little bit of tennis and darts last night. And there's plenty of drama series to immerse in. Going on holiday.
Do all this, and I'll be ready to go again come August.

Drumming my fingers impatiently and glancing at my watch every five minutes or so waiting for the new season to begin.

Plenty of sport going on (some of us aren't only interested in football)

The Indoor Kommandant has a l-o-n-g list of tasks for me to complete, most of which I was supposed to do during the season which has just finished (and some were carried over from the season before, IIRC).

Wife & Daughter are away for most of it, so I will be mostly alone and I will be.
A lot of work.
A bit of decorating.
A bit of gardening.
A bit of de cluttering.
A bit of peace and quite time.
A bit of over indulgence.
A bit of seeing friends.
A bit of going to a couple of gigs.
A bit nothing.
A bit of a holiday meeting the wife and daughter for 3 weeks.
A bit of reading NSC and the transfer sagas.
A bit of a diet.

Like all Albion fans I wish the season was starting tomorrow, hate Summer although we have a cruise with Polly and Giles next week and Michael Buerk is joining us too. The better half also wants me to re-grout the bathroom and decorate the fifth bedroom and en-suite, front room ceiling could do with artexing again too but probably get a professional in to do that.

Playing cricket
Watching cricket
Drinking in beer gardens
Holiday
Bit of work

A bit of football to watch too - some pointless internationals, Club World Cup, U21 Euros - then be pre-season games before we know it.

Giving my credit cards a breather. Way too much money spent this last 10 months (most decadent being the hummer to Southampton, thank God I only have 2 more kids yet to reach 18!)

Very much what @ROSM said. Bank account gets a constant battering during the season. So I'm also looking forward to a financial breather and a cheap(er) summer.
My lad is 18 and I still seem to pay for +80% of all Albion related spend. Oh well, it's great father/son time – we both love it – and I doubt he could afford to go at all if I didn't cover most of it.

I'm going to try and block all things football out my mind for 11 weeks tbh. As much as I've enjoyed it, I am ready for a break.
So many other things to do and look forward to..

• Watching Tour de France (and cycling for me in general)
• Watching tennis
• Watching cricket test matches
• Photography.. my other passion
• Glastonbury / festival season (plus Stereophonics, Finsbury Park gig with my daughter in July)
• Decorate my home study and buy a load of new computer equipment for work
• Seeing friends/family + enjoying good weather hopefully
• Chilling + dog walks with the Mrs
• Maybe a few day trips west
• Couple of trips to London

All good/can't wait.

There's always football.
UCL this week.
Man Utd must be playing somewhere next week, and the week after.
Club World Cup, or maybe not. Is it even on TV?
Since I broke the sad news of no European Tour next season wife is planning some trips for us.
Sitting in the garden, in fact this one a lot.
