So, who's up in Toon on Sunday? And what time are you meeting up? I expect I'll be in the Straabeery sometime before KO. Is it a reasonable assumption that it will be open all day???

I think so but I'm in Newcastle going to the RVI so I'll stop off and ask.

I suspect you'll have trouble getting into the Strawberry much after 4 o clock..

What - even a regular like me? In which case, you might have to open the back gates and I'll climb over the wall ;-)

There's alot of drinking time before KO isn't there? I WON'T be in the Strawberry cos I never go in there but I will be with you all in spirit! I'll be sitting on the bus travelling up the A1 with various Manchester based mags.

I'll be there - what time will we be meeting and what is the back up plan if it's full?

I do hope to see you all again and this time enjoy a couple of post match beers as well.

Kegsy - certainly looking forward to seeing you again on Sunday. I reckon I'll try to get there by 15:30 and pace myself (not much chance of either but worth a try!). I may need to leave by 17:00 to meet friends in the bar under the Gallowgate (more money to Toon's coffers!) but will definitely be back in the Straabeery for afters ;-)

Half past three for a 7 O clock KO. Bloody Hell.

So, what time is the general arrival time? I have a wee feeling this will be like the Makems game for crowds in the pubs...

Well, maybe 15:30 is a bit early for a 19:00 KO. I reckon 16:15- 16:30 onwards is a reasonable target arrival time.
