[Albion] August 12th / holidays

[Gwylan]

Mrs G has just informed me that we're away for a long weekend 17th to 20th ... so, I hope we are at home first game

 

[HantsSeagull]

due to be on my way back from France on 12th - may have to reschedule it if poss

really has got ridiculous - kid doesnt break up until 25 July - we go on the 29th - how the bloody hell are you meant to get a two week holiday in before the football season starts? its a joke.

Due to arrive back in Southampton from a Cruise on August 12. With a good run home, I should make it in time for a home game.

Not sure how the rest of the family would feel if we are away to Southampton.

 

[BlockDpete]

No kids, so no need to go away in August


International breaks are 2/9 and 6/10

Mrs SS has been told in no uncertain terms that no holiday after the 12th August and that I will be attending all games home and away next season. Apparently, this means that I don't love her and further more that I care about football more than her. I thought for a woman being 50% right wasn't bad really....

Booked holiday a few months ago, taking the kids out of school a day and a half early just so we can be back on August 5th a full week ahead of the excitement. I want to really immerse myself in the whole Premier League build up.

 

[Beach Hut]

Back on the 12th early morning at Gatwick so will see what happens

 

[Live by the sea]

Away August 10th for 10 days in St Tropez. I'm not cancelling that even for the Albion !

 

[darkwolf666]

August 12th is the date for the Premier League start next season.

Should the Albion be part of the Greatest Show on Earth (TM), do you already have a holiday booked that would see you missing it?

We haven't got anything booked yet, but if/when we do, it would see us being away for the first couple of weeks of the season.

Tfft we come home from holiday on 11th - I'm predicting Arsenal at home (if we make it).

 

[BangaloreGull]

I have tickets for the World Athletics Championships that day (Bolt, Farah etc that day in possibly their last ever races). I'm hoping we are moved to Sunday!

Oh bugger! So do I! Was really looking forward to it but now gutted!

Thank your lucky stars we won't be in the Championship (will we). That starts on w/e 5th August so the first game will be on Friday 4th.

 

[footychick]

We're going away on the 9th

 

[chrispyk]

I'm coming to the UK for a study abroad trip to Scotland for 2 weeks in early August so I'm hoping I'll be able to get tickets to a match on the 12th or 19th.

 

[footychick]

I booked our 3 week trip to Canada from 1st Aug back in November....I never think of football fixtures before family holidays. My priorities right there.

I was in Canada last August

Like the old joke isn't it......?

'You care more about the Albion than you do about me'
'To be fair, I care more about Palace than I do about you'

 

[Dave the OAP]

Yep we will be away around 3rd to 20th august.

Also I have a few golf matches scheduled for saturdays leading up to the 4th November ...so who knows.

 

[sir albion]

This season's promoted teams:

Burnley: Sunday - 7; Monday - 4
Middlesbrough: Sunday - 9; Monday - 5
Watford: Sunday - 6; Monday - 3

So the lesser teams get the shit days....what a surprise
Reckon we'll get a good 10 Saturday games at least which isn't a bad thing

 

[HantsSeagull]

Thank your lucky stars we won't be in the Championship (will we). That starts on w/e 5th August so the first game will be on Friday 4th.

so we are a whole week earlier in championship and premiership than last season

 

[Bwian]

Might have to give it a miss-it is The Glorious 12th after all and there are Grouse to be shot!

What are the international dates for next season? Got a wedding in Spain first week of October.
