Avoid viagogo and stubhub. They will charge you a fortune. They basically buy up the tickets and resell them at a higher price. Arseholes. ticketmaster.co.uk will be the place to go.

Ill compromise, a couple games a year fine, but to put a team there, which is where they are trying to take this, is a joke. Agreed, no way will there be a team here, I just don’t think there’s the appetite for it. When there are 4 games, I think it struggles to sell out. I’m not from London and it’s an expensive day out, you’re talking £250 for a game, and unless it’s the Jets I’m not doing it. People won’t change teams, London isn’t local for me, why am I supporting them, they could try to rotate venues, but even then, I’m not not supporting the Jets. The novelty would wear off, and the games have fans from all over the country/Europe visit for the games, you’re asking a lot to expect them to do so 8/9 times a season. Cojld see a scenario where they bring more games over, but the games are bollocks, I don’t enjoy it, plastic flags and fans more bothered about fantasy than what’s going on I front of them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can teach you how to make the Tattie Scones, they're the best part. Finding Black and White Pudding might be a challenge tho, depending on where you live. It’s would have haggis and not white pudding but looks a fair attempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree with this. Pretty much everyone who goes to these games already follows a team - probably has for 10+ years at least - so why would they give up on them to support a new team with no history, no roots, that could quickly vanish if fortunes changed (see: London Monarchs V1 and V2). I could just imagine if there were a London based team there would be more away fans than home fans ... kind of like being at some Jets games I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just expect to be outnumbered, as everyone just supports Raiders, Packers, Giants and Dolphins and naturally everyone hates the Jets All it will make you do, is get hunger to make it over to East Rutherford, and that can only be a good thing!

Unrelated, I see Pats are off to a pretty good start this season, you think you can keep it up and clinch a Europa league spot by the end?

Suppose it depends, my Mum always made it with both white/black and no Haggis (for the aforementioned 'no Haggis in U.S.' reason likely), but in my time in Edinburgh and Falkirk it usually (but not always) had white pudding included, along with the rashers, black pudding, haggis, etc. Honestly, I love white pudding most of the trio (white, black, haggis) personally.

I think by October, barring a major set-back, we should be at least 2/3 or eve. 75% capacity for sporting events outdoors....I know both Silverstone and Wimbledon will be spectator events in July ...probably at least 50% capacity at the Grand Prix and around 10 or 15K per day at Wimbledon when it’s usually 30-40K...that’s July!....... with hopefully everyone fully vaccinated by early autumn we should be in course for full stadiums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
