One way to cause a fight however is the clash of footie on Sep 17th

Arsenal vs Blackburn on Sky at 1245 OR Forest vs Derby at 1300

as a gracious host I'll still attempt to get Forest tickets but best it's a nine goal thriller ot there'll be trouble in paradise :curse:

There's also the conundrum on the Sunday of up early to watch Englan vs Georgia RWC at 0700 or record it, noting that Wales play Samoa at0430

Would be hard to come up and resist the lure of the City ground I must admit, but I could do it if I had to (in spite of the jeers of "armchair supporter" from the back row!)

The likelihood of me being awake for the rugby is pretty slim, I'll admit that. You did say Forest tickets aren't on sale for a while so we'll mull it over.....who knows, in the meantime the Barfly may decide to change his Elland Road date with his pal from Derry and join us in Nottingham in which case Arsenal may have to take precedence as I can't see us getting HIM to the City Ground!
