    Did those timings still work on sombrero day or did the additional wind resistance delay you? I wound my mum up this week saying that people were wearing sombreros again tomorrow - the look she gave me was equivalent of 1000 words, none good

    Oh really?  😲

     

    Well tell "Mother Dearest"...

    No street permits around Chad.
    I live (and walk from) home, down near the cricket ground/Racecourse car park.  I wouldn't consider anything other than leaving the car there and walking.  Bang on 30 mins without "dashing".  Most folk going that way seem to pass me, so maybe 25 mins for them!
    You could easily lose 10/15 mins driving/stuck in traffic/looking for spaces elsewhere, and still have a walk!

    I normally leave around 2:10/2:15 for a 3pm game, and arrive at the club shop corner of the ground around 2:40.  I'll be leaving nearer to 11:30 for this, as I want to soak up a bit of atmosphere.  I'll be there for noon.

    ... Just hope there's no chance of extra time & pens in your daughter's game!  😁

    One other thing...

    Assuming we all leave together (Which I concede may well not be the case tomorrow)...

    The walk back towards the cricket ground takes a similar time as the official supporters buses parked up by Subway (I usually get to Pentagon at the same time... and NEVER leave before the final whistle!).
    No other traffic (Other than away fan coaches?) can leave the stadium area before those buses, so any other matchday traffic will be behind them. That should infer a clean getaway from the cricket ground/racecourse area before the traffic builds up around there.

  3. The club are not asking... they are telling... don't do it.
    The law says... don't do it.
    "The best way to gain promotion is by the Play-Offs" is oft-written... do they invade the pitch at Wembley?
    Hysterically approaching a player who has yet to make himself safe by dashing down the tunnel, just to "Plant a big fat kiss" could (understandably) be misconstrued as a potential attack/assault.  Remember, there will be confusion, concern, and uncertainty from some quarters.

    All it takes... literally... is one jubilant fan being tripped/nudged/held back by a viz'd up official whose sole job/instruction is to attempt to fend off a pitch invasion for the mood to change.  Just one defensive/evasive swing of the arm can be caught on the numerous cameras, and have you stood in the dock before you can say "I wish I'd listened to Uncle Mucker"!

  4. For all those considering placing a bet on the oppo, just to make yourself feel better should tomorrow turn out to be a complete shitzfest, there are alternative methods to get that smug grin back on your face faster than you can suck those balls into the back of the net...

    Apologies if already posted. 

     

    Didn't recognise him from the first pic.
    All became clear with the second though.

    Just so effin' handsome!  What a guy!  🤍

     

     

     

    PS:
    Re the second pic (in the car)... I like how he has his reading glasses hooked next to his shades!

    Why risk points deduction, even if a remote possibility.

    In fairness, it appears you're asking the wrong person, in @Ilkestonian.
    This should be aimed at those who have openly aired their intentions (on here) to invade the pitch at full time.

    I've made my views clear.  But that's not to say I believe a pitch invasion will in itself lead to a points deduction, as I don't imagine it will for one moment.

    My anti-invasion opinions are based on the fact that:
    A/  The invaders will be going against the club's wishes, plans, and publicly announced statements, along with the laws of the land.
    B/  The potential of those left in the stands missing the advertised "Lap of honour", due to it being cancelled should the pitch not be cleared in an appropriate timescale (There's only so much one man with a megaphone can achieve!).
    C/  The potential for just ONE of the assumed thousands on the pitch doing something SO STUPID, that that in itself "COULD" lead to action being taken against the club, be that a fine, points deduction, or any other sanction the EFL has in their power.

    Your question is a fair one.  It was just a poor aim.  👍🐏

    Like Sunday shopping hours .... Imagine due to 'laws'

    Precisely... 30 mins browsing/filling the trolley before they can legally turn the tills on.  Makes sense/Good idea... for a shop!

     

    I sniff some "cash only" transactions afoot!  🤣
