BCFC1512 Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Anyone booked anything or waiting for sky games. I've booked flight which will cover any sky move apart from if it's moved to Friday night. Here's hoping it's either not selected or 5:30 KO on the Saturday.

Betty Swallocks Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Booked hotel etc. Saturday tea time would make for a 'boisterous' atmosphere. Wouldn't be against Saturday 5:30 kick off at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Major Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 Flights booked. If Sky move it to Friday night, then its a day and night out in Newcastle. Both Newcastle and Boro are away that weekend so couldn't even go and watch them!!! Keep it crossed :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back Sunday evening If the game is moved to the Friday evening then you could, perhaps fly up and back on the Friday evening - on the plane that you'd travelled up upon, watch the match on TV in the Sports Bar then fly up again on the Saturday morning so that you don't waste your Sunday evening return flight? Sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would as I need to get to London straight after and would likely miss the last direct train, wasting a hotel booking. Don't want to sleep in Derby waiting for the next train.

Last time we played Sunderland it was on a Thursday night, it's a new ground. Going by how many I know have booked up for the weekend already I would say the numbers will be similar to Newcastle trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as we haven't played Sunderland away since 1998 it's academic! Boro, I remember going with over 1,000 to the cup replay in 2007 on a Tuesday. Seeing as it's a ground we've played at a few times now, not so popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
