    Already have my flight booked from Dubai to London on the friday morning.

    Please note, this is not me being over confident, more just planning ahead. Missus works for Emirates so can cancel the flight without having to pay for it.

    threads like this are why I worry.....all getting a bit ahead of ourselves I think.

    let's wait until 10pm Friday night for these.

    If it all goes horribly wrong on Friday, at least we now have a scapegoat in @SidewaysInOz to burn at the stake!

    It's a long way to go, though, to burn him at the stake. Can't we find someone nearer to home?

    If he's coming over we can have a welcome committee waiting for him at the Airport

    Only so many flights coming in from Perth surely?

    Am sure Heathrow staff wont mind a few people camping out if we take it in shifts to wait

    As said bit early to take anything for granted but understandably people  look to plan in advance especially when flights/prices involved.
    My cousin and her partner have already said they will fly over from NY should we get to the final.

    I've heard there is a certain chap in Belgium who would fit the bill nicely!

    We're not even half way there. It's not over until the last ball is kicked. At the moment we just happen to be a goal ahead, which is good, but one lapse of concentration and that counts for nothing.

    Indeed.....I did say "should the mighty Reds make it to the big dance at Wembley on the 26th May" as I was interested on who was planning to make the trip should we get the result we need. Advanced planning is needed for those of us overseas.

    Makes sense if I'm only coming over for a 5 days. 17 hours direct the way to go I think if I can get the cash together.

    Mrs Grumpy thought I was bonkers to  look a cheap flight home in May for a Wembley final when we were just holding out in 6th at the time.

    Now looking less bonkers.
