If you keep saying that you'll convince yourself...then won't it be a lovely 'surprise' as you find yourself boarding the plane

Was only asking

Right then. Here's the deal Fraser. If you can't make it back - I will be a supporter-by-proxy - especially on account of I'm only about 80 miles up the road from the Millenium stadium. I've never followed a football team in my life - but I have been doing my homework on the players and the club's history and will cheer on the Hammers on the big day, in a nearby hostelry.

Doesn't she know the match ticket will be more than the flight?

Or do you have contacts??

I've been following them through thick and thin and thin and thin and more thin if you get my drift.

Then the minute I sod off the first final in a quarter of a century
Gutted for you mate. Don't have much luck do you?

Watched the game and was thinking 'boutcha.

That's why you should follow a successful team...like the Gooners

Successful??? its not really been one of your better seasons has it? you might not even make 4th spot. I will grant you your place in Europe and to be honest as the last english team i hope you go all the way, but the mighty reds are a much better choice really (LFC reds that is)


good luck mate

There's a guy here in oz who will get the tickets as part of the package, he has good contacts with the club and has bought the tv rights to games to show in oz.

Cheers mate.

We were invited to someones house in Altona to watch it by a hammer on a West Ham site, also been invited to Altona football club as loads of hammers there.

Or it will probably be on at the Celtic club in the cbd 1000 there last year for the play off final.

If only we had baby sitters
