typically annoying for me, week off, away game and its off. doh
I know my bad luck in being able to watch town usually coincides with scooters good luck and he's come up trumps again as I know he was originally missing bolton to go and watch England instead , now he can do both
so for those who planned on either going, watching or listening, now what are you going to do ?
as far as tv goes, we have Mansfield v Colchester 12:30 on sky, that could be a cricket score
Chesterfield v boredom wood at 3pm on TNT ( so much for the 3pm thing )
stockport v MKD at 5:15 sky
England v Brazil 7pm channel 4 friendly ( can already visualise a dull boring game full of stop and starts and subs )
if I thought I could find someone to go with me the trip to stockport , watch the game from the home end, partake in a few local pubs that would be a decent football day out ( I know scooter would jump for this if he wasnt watching the dull England game ;-) )
in reality I could even end up shopping somewhere
so what are you doing folks ?

Stockport is an interesting one, and some decent pubs.
Staying more local, Whitchurch Alport are at home. There is a new pub there, the Crafty Dragon. Looks worth investigating

One more suggestion. If the Bolton game was on another weekend we would have been heading to Chorley first. It was great last year. You could do that and then watch their game in NLN. I know at least one other person who would be keen

Possibly a day for a spot of "track-bashing", which, for non railway fans, is going on new routes, or a visit to a heritage railway....decisions, decisions....

Spain v Columbia on Friday night. Either Assistant Referee on a local Cup Semi Finalon Saturday afternoon or a Combined Counties League game followed by England v Brazil at Wembley. Madly will be my 98th match at Wembley since it was rebuilt. Belgium on Tuesday will be 99th game

I take a break myself. There’s almost too much football on these days so nice to have a breather from it especially in the midst of a relegation battle!! I doubt I’ll even watch the England friendlies either.

Another dreary international break in which meaningless matches are played using largely fringe players and with multiple substitutions.
Not sure what benefit such matches give to coaches etc.
