Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 27, 2021 Well me and Rob have decided to come up for this one. Got oxygen tanks in the van as the air is a bit more rarified up there, and bringing an air rifle incase we get attacked by an angry herd of haggises. Tomorrow I am going to attempt to learn some of the lingo. Gonnae no' dae that really. We have to drive straight back as hotels are up to £1000 a night! Not Mad wae it, see how far we can get back before finding a travel lodge. If you see us in our Poole jackets, cone and say hello. We don’t bite! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poole should run their leg whenever they have a dry day and have a number of Glasgow supporters booked to travel. Suspect they will get nil away and neutrals support for their leg if they keep delaying at short notice in order to satisfy their desire to hold the "second leg" Friday isn't going to be a dry day.

Not fair on away fans who have paid hotels arranged travel and got time off work . It is forecast to have heavy rain on Friday but dry at time of meeting. So it is quite difficult. Would you be happy if Poole kept it on despite the forecast and was off later in the day and still out of pocket a bit that way? Catch 22 situation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But yes if gets it over I'd be for it. Whether each clubs money men would agree with me is a different matter Yeah like at BV, not Leicester!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 27, 2021 Yes Carlisle or perhaps a bit further south so we don’t have massive journey next day. Reckon a three hour drive south from Glasgow would be a good stopping point. I am ok as I have a camper van but Rob will need a travel lodge. See how knackered we will be. The hotels are taking the pee. Was going to fly from Gatwick, at £75 return, but can’t get a hotel so either sleep or doze at the airport before a 9 am return flight, or just drive and be our own captains. 8 hours drive plus stops so leaving around 8 am. Easy drive but just a very long way. Couple of hundred quid of fuel I should think. Just hope the weather is set ok. A long way to go for a rainoff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
