I may be driving to the game. If anyone is short of a lift there, I may be a last resort to someone.

Easy to drive if one had a car in the UK. Looking forward to this game during my routine filial piety journey back to Blighty. COYS , Bring your shorts and T shirt plus a sun hat as temperature is set for 24°C on Monday 😎 24 Deg.C is still cold IMHO. jacket required (apologies Phil Collins) |

Over here in Hungary, it's a chilly 21 degrees outside and everyone is dressed for winter. 21 at home would be a warm spring day. In the summer it doesn't really feel hot here until in gets into the 30s, but back in Blighty, 30 degrees would be a 'scorcher'. Our AC here is usually set around 25 or 26 degrees, and it feels really cool, even cold, on a 35 degree day! Having written all that, I realised that HK is probably very humid! |

You always do well at Sutton  Won't make any difference - to either of us. We'll be back though... I do hope so, I have always enjoyed my visits to your ground. |

Not so sure... bumped into some Salford fans the other weekend who weren't exactly fulsome in their praise. |

But what spoilt their enjoyment? the weather was fine they got a generous section of the covered GENCO stand there weren't any crowd "issues" that I was aware of the catering arrangements for the away section are more than adequate according to their manager their team played better in the first half than at almost any other time this season they got three points and went top of the league
Sounds enjoyable to me.

They did say that the lack of an atmosphere (which, given the circumstances for us was perhaps understandable) spoilt their enjoyment a bit. Having said that, in common with most fans of northern clubs connected with the Scholes, Butt, Beckham collective, they were from Sussex, so who knows what they have to compare it to, or how many home games they attend? |
