Post No 14. How many more times - could HAVE, not could OF

You are not smart enough to quote the post though.

Bollocks, I have corporate hospitality for this one as one of the suppliers for our company has a box at Elland Road. Was planning on the train so I could get thoroughly pissed at their expense but now the last train is in doubt they may have ****ed me over into driving. Still can't complain too much as I'm seeing the game for free (all be it suited and booted with the prawn brigade) but it's certainly made the Mrs happier about the whole affair.

This is normally my plan as I always have plenty of Avios burning a hole in my pocket. However, the flight times back are crap. 0930 too early on a Sunday morning after a night on the razz and 1930 too late!

Also, never flown to LBA but it appears its a way out of town and no trains. Actually considering flying back from Manchester.......

Might be lack of Avios availability now as I got a return flight at 13:55 - perfect for a late breakfast. It's less than 9 miles airport to hotel so closer than a lot of city airports. I'll let you know how it goes.........!

Are you serious? £10,000 really isn't much these days.

I'll be in Dublin then and should find a decent bar

Is there still a 12.30 slot to fill on that Sat?

I got it confirmed by e-mail today, from the EFL, that there will be no more moves for TV on this weekend, so we've gone ahead and booked train tickets.

Derby is sixth round FA Cup day so it won`t be decided yet.

Although Newcastle v Villa has been moved and that's on FA Cup round 5 weekend.

That game is subject to cup involvement.

My point exactly !

There is no reason why albion v derby is immune from being moved just because it is a cup weekend.

Feck it I'm still going, 85,000 crowd and display of the Champions of Europe trophy, what's not to like?

No, but the EFL and Sky have committed to confirming TV games 5 weeks before the scheduled date, so I guess they felt obliged to confirm the NEW v AVL game but don't need to confirm anything yet for 11th March.

If both Brighton and Leeds were mid table this match would still have ended up on Sky.

Whilst that's true, we've been brilliant in those 20 months whilst until the last few months, Leeds have been dire.

Hardly dire this season. Could be above us by beginning of February.
