    Nice report mate.

    I was there too(upstairs) and my guess was no more than 60 Froch supporters and about 20 of those were friends and family. A very disappointing turn out but I suspect that in years to come, just like the first ever Sex Pistols concert, thousands more Nottingham folk will cllaim to 'have been there'!!!

    I also went to the New York press conference and the following day managed to blag my eay into the Klitschko/haye press conference as well!! Will try to post some pics on here in a minute

    Thanks mate. Yes even without the finish I'd do it in a heartbeat. To be honest I didn't see the fact that it was in some Indian reserve in the middle of nowhere as a hassle but as an experience and something new to try out.

    I've been to MSG a couple of times now and love it, but the fact that we had to get a train at the crack of dawn on Sat am from Penn station kind of added to the anticipation.

    I didn't even think about the Haye presser in New York, well done.

    You are on another forum? Get out of here and don't come back.

    I was wondering why Froch kept flicking his leg.

    It was a great fight, you were lucky to be there.

    Our boy Earnie has done wonders for you this year.

    Don't be surprised to see Davies get rid though.

    Earnie has been legendary, he'll stay, I'm sure of it, I mean Premiership next year, Champions league in a couple, futures bright. Bet he's happy he didn't stay at D**by!

    Thanks mate, glad you found it interesting. Cost well over a grand all in but we stayed three nights in New York (Thur, Fri, Sun) in addition to the Sat at Foxwoods and spent a fair bit on the **** and eating out etc.
    The best seats (which we went for) were 'only' US$200 though and were spot on.
    Foxwoods is a 2 and a half hour train ride from New York plus a 20 min cab ride.
