How many can we realistically expect to take? I'm looking forward to it already.

I reckon I'll be taking the boy to Blackburn for his first away game. Looking forward to it already.

Gutted, the missus' dad is from Clitheroe so managed to persuade her to come to this one this season...bloody computer puts it on the same day as my brother's wedding. Trying to work out how I could do a best man's speech on videolink from Ewood Park...

You think that's bad... My brother got married in Winchester on the same day as the last match at Belle Vue.

I couldn't justify £3k on a helicopter which still could've been too late for kick-off.

I couldn't go to the Southend play-off semi-final because of my cousins wedding. We snuck out and watched in an empty bar though, with just 5 of us and the bartender watching

From what I remember the catering options at Ewood Park were very good. Well organised as well I think.

Deffo could be another to add to my list. And a good marker to see how prepared we are.
