    Great staging and organisation, but I didn't follow one single minute of it 🤣. No interest.

    @BalladMan Got one from Toronto via Twitter. In Saturday, out Monday. 

    The Woolwich Pigeon account on there also confirmed that he's flying in from Woolwich....

    You lot are so precious 😂.  I once did Jerusalem -> Tel Aviv -> Heathrow -> home -> Fratton -> home over about 28 hours for an AWAY league game.  Crawl out of the woodwork for Wembley…

    (seriously, well played and 🤞)
    I have come to the Valley, when I was a season ticket holder, from both Delhi & Lima. On both occasions we lost 🙄🫣😩🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    Slightly off topic, but I met a Canadian Spurs season ticket holder who commuted from Canadaevery game.
    That's ridiculous. I guess only possible if you are a) loaded so you can afford the constant flights and b) own your own company so you can get leave whenever you want it.

    I'm flying in from south of Alicante but only because I'm on holiday until the 2nd week of June, not living out here.

    I’m orbiting the earth at the moment on the International Space Station but should be returning back to earth in time for the match on Sunday. How does fit in with the map? 🤓

    it is something I have been thinking about over the last couple of days of putting this together.  I wonder if the club would be interested in applying a carbon offset as a bit of PR to promote the international fanbase,

    ChatGPT tells me 200000 miles economy is 30 tonnes of CO2 emissions, so the offset costs will be around £500 via a number of charities / replanting options

    Ballad Man - is it OK to put the map on the CAST website to try to catch people who may not be CL readers?

    I promoted this on my Blog and have one coming from Singapore, one from Upsalla in Sweden and a Shetland Islander, if that counts.
