Plenty of claret and blue at Heathrow, the odd distant murmur " irons" can be heard as people shuffle by, the excitement is building :scarfer:

My journey starts this time tomorrow out of Gatwick. Buzzing!

Not sure how I’m going to get through a long work day today mind you.

Quite heavy rain now and forecast the next few days. The fan zone could be a bit of a mud bath.
Fans could treat it like one of those mad Glastonbury trench foot inflicting fun days, which won't matter if we win.

Someone mentioned blagging it on the transport network. Free on the day for match ticket holders but I have been stopped twice today by inspector checks on the metro, with valid day pass.
Simply not worth the risk. Wherever I have been with a ' trust' system the inspectors are rightly strict.

Seeing our badge as you walk through arrivals next to the words “UEFA Conference League Final” is nuts.

Flying out Wednesday morning from Heathrow... Wondered if anybody else was going on the 8.50 flight too?

I'm stupidly excited (way too old to be feeling like this) Can't wait. COYI

Not seen anything yet.
Mods: Maybe worth a separate thread when they start coming through? So we can all enjoy?

They have seemed quite relaxed i found

I bought a 3 day pass when i arrived, but lost it on my first night. Not been checked sìnce i registered it at airport. But not done many trips as not far between one place and another (and i have the backup of a credit card receipt if need be)

I've still got a direct flight out to Prague tomorrow that I can't make now (due to ankle surgery - an unbelievably ***** twist of fate). If anyone is struggling to get out there give me a shout. No return to sell though (and no match ticket before I get a million PM's) :hamm:

The eagle has left the barracks and is heading to the airfield. I say again, the eagle has left the barracks. Over.
