I love going to the soccer and rugby matches when they come here. It’s not like the travel time is much different then going to the other coast and they’re on private planes. Huh? what about west coast teams going to UK or UK team going to West Coast? That is a 10-12 hour non stop flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be like a 40 minute Space X Rocket or whatever they are calling it. LOL, probably right, this will take mucho time to happen. Hell, we may be able to transport them.

I guess it is possible since we play at jacksonville and they have a couple of games over there every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Division Marduk Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 8 hours ago, BurnleyJet said: I live in Northern England. Where men are men, and sheep are scared! P.S If anyone wants a Jets V Miami scarf from the Wembley game, I have a spare. "Where the men are men." Yet you bought a half and half scarf? The shame! Hate the whole thing, it screws home fans, and it seems like every game is half full of English Patriot fans, who make manage to make the Masshole versions look decent, humble and likeable human beings. Sky's and NFLUK's insane obsession with getting a London franchise can go to f**k. As someone said above, all the NFL fans in the UK and Ireland are already supporting teams, they're not going to switch to the London Whatevers just because they're a London team. They'll be outnumbered in their own stadium for years. NFL don't care, they just see sold out signs, and associated pound signs. And as for these games abroad, I wonder why Germany has been ignored by the NFL. After all, NFLE lasted far longer in Germany than it did in the UK. I gotta say, the time the Jets played there, being able to get back to my house in time for the late game was weird. And welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlichtie Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 9 hours ago, Lith said: I am not a big fan of taking home games away from teams, but, if they are going to play a few games in London each year, I can live with it. I would prefer if they play them in the evening local time so they still fit into a normal time slot for the fans back home. That said, next time the Jets play in London, it is a road trip I would love to make. Get saving then, expect them to be in London this coming season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Blitz Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 As a lifelong UK Jets fan I’m against the London games, it was fun seeing the Jets in London but not a patch on seeing them in the states. Almost felt like an exhibition with a confused crowd wearing every jersey under the sun barely taking an interest in what was happening on the field. Not to mention the sheer volume of fellow Englishman in Brady jerseys, it disgusted me to my very core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, we did hammer the Dolphins though and it was one of the more dominant Jets performance inn recent times. I went all the way to NY in 2002 to see us blow a 20 point lead and lose to Cleveland!.....fkn Cleveland! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
