but what are the chances of getting two tickets for the Derby/Spurs matches for me and the Mrs? If and when will they be available ?

... and had I mentioned yet that I was after a ticket in October for the Smoggies away ?!!

That'll by my coat over there - the one with the hood that's got corks hanging off it to keep the blow flies away.

whilst were talking of the unobtainable - any chance of 8 tickets for the Everton game on the 21st Oct? Organising a work trip from dahn sarf.
OL - just the one then, they can sit cowering in the pub.

Waddya mean 'unobtainable' Scratchy?! D'yer mean to say I'm flying 5000 km. around the world, just to sit in a pub full of mutant Teesiders in my b&w ? Have faith bonny lad - these nice bbs folk will sort you out for your 8 tickets, I'm sure.

Yipeeeeee, it must be the continental drift, we are now only 5,000 km from home. That will mean it will only be a 5 hour flight and a lot less money than the $2000, 18,000km we used to travel.

Thanks for that info Loony!!

Choose a finger gus (clue: only middle one available) :o))

Alright. So I'm sprung. I chose to study German instead of Geography. Don't know me tectonic plates from me crop rotation techniques. What can I say? I was speaking figuratively and rounding down the numbers so people on here wouldn't feel obliged to dash down the ticket office right away and get queuing for me. I'm sorry. There, I've apologised.

Now can I have a ticket for the Riverside please ?
