Play off Final .... Nightmare in the air!!!

[Coldeanseagull]

I say go, enjoy your holiday and hope the match is on fox sports or whatever they call it over there. Hopefully, when you get back, we'll be in the big boys league

Im going to look into skygo thanks.

Unfortunately we arrive just after the game will be finished so cant even hope it'll be shown in the hotel. Nightmare!

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Sorry to hear that chum.....but when will people learn not to book holidays until June at the earliest...there are no weddings, funerals,holidays,till then...

 

[JonnyComeEarly]

They are if you get a VPN.

StrongVPN.com - Providing high speed, unlimited bandwidth, multiple country VPN accounts for over 100,000 users. Since 1995

Nice one thank u

Golden rule in football: NEVER book non-football related events in May. The thought of your team being in a fin that you can go to but can't is unbearable!

 

[Easy 10]

Shirley "the richrest game in the world" will be knocking about live somewhere on ESPN Disney Fox's Glacier Mint sports network brought to you exclusively by Gatorade ?

Or something.

Funnily enough i've spent this week looking to change flts. This went down like a sack of shit with the wife of course!

Anyway its like £950 to fly us all out the next day plus lose a days hols

Why don't just yu go out on a later flight?

Only flight of the day!

He means instead of having the whole family fly the next day, let them catch their flight and you go the next day.
Is it an inconvenience to your family - yes it is. Would it be a sacrifice worth making - well der. Given that you're quite a serious fan, the prospect of missing the final is unthinkable. Obviously this might irrelevant, but you'll know a week Monday.

 

[blue2]

Not the answer, but for those families going away for whitsund week, the timing couldn't be worse.

I'm delaying a decision on a UK based holiday, because of this.

An added incentive, is we want to go to the new Wembley for the first time.

Was taking mrs Blue2 away to Paris all booked then found we might be playing so that is now canceled and hopefully Wembley here we come, Mrs Blue2 is the understanding sort

 

[johnhammond]

It'll be live on beinSPORT over here (well, 99.9% sure), and they usually replay live matches later in the day. Failing that, look for English/sports bars wherever you're going. The ones around Seattle usually record games and play them later in the day (and will do random other games if you ask), so find a bar near you and ask them nicely.

 

[Jim in the West]

NB: we are not in the final yet.....

 

[StillHateBellotti]

Where you flying in to.....That would be well worth paying a taxi driver to hold up the score as you come through arrivals.......Still may not even make it yet.....

If Sky do show replays it may be best for you to set it all up on you pc and log into skygo to make sure it all works with the VPN switched on and then get your wife to check when it is on whilst you go outside to avoid seeing or hearing anything. Once you know the time you can log back in and enjoy

Fingers crossed that your dilemna comes to pass and we make it to Wembley

My delightful wife !

I'd assumed she would have told you the date when booking it rather than springing it on you now.

 

[Commander]

I don't understand how any football fan could hear the words 'holiday' and 'May' in the same sentence and not go "woooaaahh hang on a second, I need to check some dates before you book anything".

I realise this is no help whatsoever for your problem.

You can't take it with you...
If we get to the final rebook, if you have funds for a US trip you can afford it...your wife booking a flight for a Bank Holiday Monday (why not sat or sun) with a return losing a monday nights sleep and eating well into a working week cannot be blame free!

 

[Marshy]

worry about if we get there

[Psychobilly freakout]

Options

1: Accidently lose your passport, unless your wife is like mine and has it under lock and key "somewhere safe"

2: Fain a heart attack and watch from the comfort of a hospital bed.

 

[clippedgull]

Of course, the pilot/co pilot on the flight may announce 'for anybody interested' (Insert team) has just been promoted to the Premiership!
