Anyone bottling the final?

[marky200484]

I've also got my wedding a fortnight after the final, so that's playing into it.

I'm so bloody conflicted.

Similar but luckily mine isn't until the start of August

Definitley going! I want to be there when we finally break the jinx! Imagine us scoring and winning! Can't not go if thats gonna happen!!!

I'm the jinx - haven't seen us win this Millennium, and several years before that - this season Colchester away, Stevenage home & away (not play offs) and as you may have guessed Oldham at home, and all the big game defeats in the years before . So I am pretty sure I am going to stay at home for this one and allow those who go to see us scrape home.

TV for me i think, due to have surgery tomorrow.

good luck with it mate..
some good people at the NGH ..and believe me i should know

Anglian.. you are 'not' going mate.. under any circumstances

Driving back up the M1 after Burnley, I vowed never to attend another play off final. Mind you, that included the semis too, but I was at Stevenage on Friday and the Lane last night,and as things stand I'm sticking to my no Wembley visit...... kind of.....

Petrol to get to Calgary - $70, flight to London - $1000+, ticket - $100...
I'd also have to get a ticket on general sale as I don't think 1 match in 5 years gives me enough loyalty points?

I went to the Crystal Palace and Wolves finals as I was a ST holder back then (and didn't live in Canada). I think I have to pass this time but I did consult the wife after the final whistle yesterday as to whether it was worth going to the final!

 

[Ferenc Blade]

Will be missing it...watching in'ttttttt pub or summat

 

[JohnDenver]

I can't go and I'm proper fooked off about it.

Moral of the story: you'll probably be dead next time United win something, so if you're not busy then JFDI.

If you can't handle defeat, then it's about time you learned. You've had enough practice by now.

The club needs your support on this occasion more than ever, forget our history and stop feeling sorry for yourselves, anyone missing this one without good reason should be ashamed to call themselves a Blade..

 

[beechblade]

I've gone back on my bottling it and will now be going, which means I have to juggle a few things now.

 

[Balham]

I am booked in for a week's sailing in and around the Firth of Clyde from Saturday, so in theory I'll be in Scotland. I said to myself I'd be happy to not find out the score until after the match.

Needless to say, I'm now looking at hightailing it back to London early. Ridiculous.

 

[Russ]

Your avatar, is that Nottingham Council House?

I will be attending.

Yes Chiz, hope you like the big flag, was difficult to erect!

As Season Ticket Holders are allowed 2 tickets, I'm sure someone would be able to get you a ticket.

 

[alcoblade]

Bloody hell, judging by this thread we're on for a humiliating following!

I can't believe so many are planning to miss it. Let's hoipe a few change there minds.

Ashamed good one that. Yes I'm ashamed to have had a ST for over 45 years and missed a total of about 30 games in the last 10 years but because I choose not to go to Wembley I will follow your instruction and no longer consider myself a Blade.

I arranged a "round table" meeting to try to settle a big case on Saturday 26th May about a week ago (the only day everyone could make) and forgot all about what else might be happening then :-(

You'd best get booking a box for the game then Darren!

[Karaoke Blade]

For the record, I'll be there.

Ditto. Have to work, first big game I've ever missed. Proper gutted like.

 

[metalblade]

Ashamed..... is heart surgery a good excuse ?

Bloody part timers.

 

[Torrix1889]

If I'm going I need 3 tickets together so I have no option to wait until general sale on Saturday, will wait and see what's left then.

 

[Railway Blade]

Said I wouldn't go and endure the heartache again but I've changed my mind. Time to grow a pair and get myself down there come what may. Train ticket now booked.

 

[TAMUS]

I will go , we may not get the chance ever again .

 

[Chiz]

Yes Chiz, hope you like the big flag, was difficult to erect!

Im nottingham born and bred and still live here, I wish it was like that just once

Just to piss of my brother and that half of the family that are Forest fans

 

[Sandmart]

Think of it this way. The Blades have lost 3 Championship / Div Two finals.
they have NEVER LOST a League One / Div Three final............................................................Yet?

 

[Fiery Blade]

I said I would not go!
Still not convinced that it's the right thing to do!
But, if they do win "....................................................perhaps I might!!!

 

[Darren]

Also, we have never previously kept clean sheets in both play off semi legs (in fact we only have one other clean sheet in play off games ever - the 1-0 win over Preston in 2009). That must be a sign.....

 

[VespaBlade]

Agreed Pinchy. Its my ambition to see us win at Wembley. I even saw us score there once.
Come on Blades fans dig deep one last time! We ARE the 12th man.

I totally agree.
As I put on another post I need to prove that I ain't the Jonah here.
Been to many a playoff/semi/relegation loss.
So I will be on me Vespa to Wembley.

I would just hate to not go and we won. Its worth the 'here we go again' risk for me to go.

So unless your reasons are work, money, holiday or family commitments for not going,GET YOUR SULKY ARSES DOWN THAT ROAD TO SUPPORT THE TEAM THAT YOU SPEND AGES ON HERE GOING ON ABOUT!

'I'm not going cos I've seen us lose before' is Wank.
