Just a thought We also had a flight organised to take us to Norwich for a League Cup game a couple of years earlier. That's just the kind of forward thinking, business savvy , modern club we are though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much of plane nerd so I have no idea what type of plane it was, but it was well worth it, took about 40 minutes I seem to remember, it was also the drunkest I have ever been at a football match . Apart from the plane I was on , there was also a jumbo jet organised for the thousands of other fans, but it never got there as some gert Ted was in air traffic control that day and the bastard never gave it permission to land.

Just a thought I do remember that our plane was £120 each. It was advertised as free food and drink, which in reality was a sandwich and one of those tiny cans of Heineken . Who o earth buys those size cans btw? (Apart from Rovers of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
