kick it off 2,062 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) Coming up for the game on Fri - planning to arrive in the fine city around lunchtime but parents won't be arriving until later in the day. As it's bank holiday, hoping there will be a bit of a pre-match atmosphere etc despite it being a Friday. Have to be at the ground early as in on a sponsorship package so have the tour of FCR/meal etc beforehand, but was wondering what people's plans are for the lunchtime/early afternoon with Sheff U and Leeds playing before us? Are people planning to head into the city and watch the Sheff U game etc? Where is likely to have a bit of a crowd in for it? I presume Queen of the Iceni is as good a shout as any, or are there better suggestions? Edited April 17, 2019 by kick it off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feedthewolf 5,885 Posted April 17, 2019 Queen of Iceni is a Wetherspoons so doesn't show football. If you're looking for somewhere near the ground with Sky and a good atmosphere, I'd say the Coach and Horses on Thorpe Road is probably your best bet if you're arriving by train. If you're coming into the bus station, probably the Murderers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkbroadslim 225 Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) Anyone else been feeling a bit sick and finding it difficult to concentrate this week? Christ knows what I'll be like on Friday especially if both Sheff Utd and Leeds win before we play. Edited April 17, 2019 by norfolkbroadslim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kinda relying on both of them losing and yet still panicking like anything by the time our match starts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m glad my elevated stress levels are shared by fellow fans. Everyone keeps telling me ‘You’re as good as up’...I won’t be able to relax until it’s mathematically impossible for us to be caught ⚠️ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
