Hi c/gunners. I am interested to know what your plans for the game are?

Kickoff for me, local time is 2am. This is probably worse than the previous KO time of around 5 or 6am. I'm in a place that has a vigourous offical Supporter club, that I am a member of. Unfortunately, membership doesn't give any access priveleges to the pub where they are watching and it's first in, first served…I think 4 hours before the start would be necessary to ensure entrance…it is going to be rammed.

Happily, I have found another bar that I have booked a table at. Unfortunately, the two friends who got me into Arsenal can't come. They were living within shouting distance of Highbury, when I first showed up in London in 2001. In a sign of unconditional love, my wife is coming, despite no massive love of football!

For the 2006 final, I was in a pub in Oxford, by myself and with no other Arsenal supporters. So this time, I want to be somewhere where there will be more atmosphere, especially if we win.

I somehow have a good feeling about this game. 🤞
