Three West Country Seagulls leaving at 7.30 also. Will be in rugby club before game where we are now recognised! Have been told to say hello to Arron Davies' dad who will be in the away end. Apparently he is very big all round, very welsh and shouts 'Come on Arron' a lot (rather unsurprisingly I would say!) When Arron played for Yeovil he got a season ticket so he could watch him all the time but didn't get one for Forest this season as Arron wasn't in the team preferring to watch his beloved Cardiff City. However, he has forsaken the mighty Bluebirds for the Seagulls - let's hope he's not disappointed!

Yeah, i'll be there. Not far to travel from Newcastle - i'll be heading across on that ridiculous train that trundles across country at 5 mile an hour and no facilities! As usual I will stock up on Stella for the journey

I've thought about this, and I don't think there's much I'd rather do LESS than spend the best part of a whole day, from 5.30am onwards, on the Costa Express going up to Carlisle and back. What an utterly HIDEOUS day in prospect. I did it once to QPR, and that was enough for me.

Fair play to you.

it will be like a scene from one flew over the cuckoos nest .

Ah, Geordie Seagull I know exactly what you mean. Considered the train but it is rubbish. I have managed to convince a couple of mates to come with me and one has even offered to drive. Picked up at the door and in the pub in Carlisle in about an hour (A69 permitting)

I think tomorrow is the first time in years that the service from Euston to Carlisle (and back) is working to a proper time table when we've played there.

Recently, it's all involved going via Leeds or Newcastle, which while they have their own merits, take substantially longer than the 3 hours 15 minutes from London we are anticipating tomorrow.
