[BorosMyHome]

Hospitality @clubwembley are selling packages listed as the Championship play off for the Monday. All seems a bit strange..

Who started this windup, it's always been the Monday and it still is.

well I've got the Premier Inn booked Fri-Sun and the Travelodge booked on Sun, all cancellable so hopefully all bases covered

you get 4 beds (1 double, 2 singles) in those Premier Inn family rooms, I don't see how they would check if you had 4 adults (staff at them are minimal now,)

I'd be inclined to agree but @ILOVEJUNINHO! doesn't have a reputation for making things up to my knowledge.

I thought it was a wind up as well which is why I emailed the EFL this morning. The reply confirmed the final will take place on Saturday may 27th. I cannot understand why they don't update the website to confirm the date. No need for the secrecy at all.

Have you asked them why it's not been officially announced?

Enjoy the league 1 final. I hope it’s the Saturday I am on shift the Monday. Got hotel booked for the Friday night now.

 

[ILOVEJUNINHO!]

I simply asked if they could confirm the date as people needed to know in order to make provisional hotel bookings etc. You can see the reply I got.

I go to Rome with the Mrs early morning on the Sunday and will be travelling to a Manchester Airport hotel on the Saturday afternoon... either way i'm screwed!

If it's the Saturday I may at least get to watch on TV before heading to Manchester.

Could always do a triangular journey via London and go to Manchester Saturday night.

The game is on the Saturday.

I've seen the comms from the EFL to MFC.

Yeah I know but thought you could always respond to them as a follow up. No worries.

Just wondering when they will actually let fans know officially.

Maybe they're waiting to see what happens with the Blades points deduction.....

That shouldn't make a difference to play off final dates should it? Doesn't matter who is in it, the date will be the date.

Yeah I wasn't being entirely serious.

Ah right

I've booked a fortnight either side of the bank holiday, premier Inn and travel lodge,I'm taking no chances. Anything could happen.

 

[atypical_boro]

Ah right

Admittedly what I said wasn't funny or clever or anything either.
