Watching Fridays game on Sky at home with friends/family

[withdeanwombat]

Hiding behind the sofa in my upstairs "shed" with a bottle of vin rouge and the jitters. I might peek at the tv screen if I'm feeling brave. Luckily,the loo is the next room. Brown trouser time.

How many hours are you ahead of us now, is it 2 or 3?

Two I think.

Remember the first series of The Naked Chef? The one where a young and fat-faced Jamie has his 'mates' over for a 'real lads night' and makes them all a massive curry. Then they drink bottles of beer and dance around to toploader when their long suffering WAGs return? Friday night round mine is going to be EXACTLY like that.

Except with less sliding down the bannister, no moped, cans instead of bottles, real friends attending in place of actors and much better food.

What? THEY WEREN'T HIS REAL MATES?

Going around youngest sons with some London Pride and Kebab take away delivered by Burgys in Haywards Heath.

Hoping to have double celebration as daughter in law has just had the latest Brighton fan of the future so will have to 'wet Jacks head' and hopefully a Seagulls win.

Actually, been thinking about this on the bus to work. He made such a massive deal about how he was having his mates over ("The boys are here, you don't want anything fancy, you want stuff they can rip into with a couple of beers" etc) that I can't believe they were fakes. Plus you get to see a (young) Jools turn uup every now and again. And Jamie, as we now know, is nothing if not a man of integrity. So I reckon they were REAL. Maybe I'm naive.

I still refuse to play any Toploader on Friday night though.


EDIT - Wasn't one of them called Andy and was a Gas Fitter or something? He couldn't have been fake.

That's what I was thinking. You surely wouldn't go into such detail as to start giving the 'mates' back stories.

Toploader once played the Brighton Centre and sold so few tickets they had to put cut the room in half with a big black cloth so they place didn't look so desperately empty.

That looks horrible!

 

[MJsGhost]

No Sky at home for me, so I'll be at a mate's gaff with a good few others...

 

[Birdie Boy]

Straight to pub on way home from work, then home in front of the big plasma, full surround sound and HD, with a takeaway and the wife and kids all in full Brighton clobber shouting our heads off and the neighbours banging on the wall!

 

[Cappers]

...and me. Might pop into my kitchen at half time and stand in a makeshift queue for 15 mins and may miss a goal. Makes it a bit more real

 

[Hiney]

Working till 6 then home to slip into my lucky pants.

Will then be lounging on the sofa.

At approximately 9.30 I hope to be WINDMILLING up my road

 

[footychick]

Me with my brother if he can change his shift at work, otherwise me with my Man U supporting hubby.

Don,t forget to water down your pint & only make your pie luke warm & restrict access to your toilet & you will feel your at the Amex. I'm going around mates house & having a few beers, be glad when Monday comes.

 

[OSRGull]

That doesn't surprise me either

What because I'd like a quiet night in it doesn't surprise you, grow up and stop making your pathetic digs, christ.

My best mate is getting married tomorrow. Hes a Millwall fan (I know... but we are still mates). When the invitation came through the post, I immediately texted him to say that that day was the championship playoff day . He said not to worry as we wont be involved but that they will be in the FA Cup the next day.
Anyway, the reception will be held in a cricket club where I am a good friend of the steward so he will have the game on the telly in the public bar
My mate has just informed me that his nephew will be there and he is a loud mouthed Palarse fan

Alone

3.45 of the A M hunched over my computer.

Not that I'll give a flying f*** if we get some kind of result though
