Benjiman_LFC Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 I've got tickets for the men's 100m final at the world athletics championships on the 5th. Looks like I'll be missing my first home game in a couple of years then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 We have this discussion every year and we are not always away on balloon fiesta weekend. The club always request that we are but the league don`t always agree and we have been at home in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmite Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 Perhaps next season we can have the balloon fiesta and the 10 k and the harbour festival all on the same day we play Sunderland at home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember when we have been at home the same day, but not since the fiesta reached its current international status (and they banned parking within a 10 mile radius!).

I can't remember the opponents, but what I do remember is that it was a lovely day with almost no wind, and all the balloons were going up, but then going nowhere!

havanatopia Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 I am planning on a year end return to the UK with a new filipina fan. Sincerely hope the fixtures are mouth watering or winnable or both or it might be a lost cause convert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do remember being home to Blackpool in 1995, when they scored after 12 seconds, and going to the Balloon Fiesta afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted May 1, 2017 Report Share Posted May 1, 2017 I think it was 1998 against Oxford United, finished 2-2 on a scorching day. i think it was our first back in the second tier, the year we shipped a shed load of goals in the first month or so.
