I'm supposed to be in Borneo. I've told everyone I'm coming for a donor visit 5th-9th.

I'm not going to Borneo now, I just can't...

the only way i can justify not going is to rationalise that if we win, we get another day out at the Cup Final, and that if we lose, it will be miserable anyway.....


...but I've never been to Wembley, old or new, and I've already promised my daughter I'll take her... so have to do it

With my wife and kids in Cape Verde. Going for 12 days. I have looked into flights back. Would only cost me two days of my holiday, £900 and my marriage.

Can't really justify the cost of flying back for a semi-final.

If we make it through to the final on the other hand...

I can make the semi but due to fly out on holiday the day before the final. I may have to start to read the small print on the flights to see if they can be changed!

Go absent without leave, they’ll understand.

I work Saturday, my missus, who I work with, let’s me skive off at oneish to go to home games. If it’s a late kick off I should be okay to clear off to Wembley at 1 o’clock, I can’t close my business that day, Saturday being our busiest day, and my son is getting married in April, which is one Saturday off, and it’s my 60th on the last weekend of the month, so we’re shut then also.
It really couldn’t have come at a worse time, for me.
