    I am going to this...:good

    We are looking for Hotels and tickets this weekend. **** knows where wexare gonna stay...:think There should be plenty of hotels in central London that we can get a tube to Upton Park...:think

    Is that FA Cup Final weekend too...:nut

    It will be a great weekend of sport... Cup Final, Mitchell v Katsidis and Khan v Mallinagi...:yep

    It is the night that I own Dan for 60 days as we are having an avatar bet... I have Mitchell to win he has Katsidis...:deal

    Its gonna be manic up town, I'm taking the old man as a treat, hope its a war

    Does anyone know if this is gonna be a ridiculous start time for the US audience? doubt it as there should be little interest from there, plus the proximity of housing doesn't bode well for a 2am start.

    Looks like I've just answered my own question:patsch

    It's on Eastern time so it it starts at 8pm over there it should be at 2am inthe morning over here...:yep I went to the Hatton v Castillo fight in Las Vegas and we were walking back to the strip at 745 at night after the fight... If they have it at 10pm ET it will be on at 6pm PT which will suit the US TV networks...:yep

    I think with the fight been in a Stadium and all the rules that go with the Policing, transport etc it will be on at a reasonable time I reckon...:yep

    Where will be best to get a hotel...:think

    Docklands, plenty cheap there, Premier Inn/Travelodge, because they are in the middle of nowhere or shitholes they tend to be cheaper than central London, which isn't hard cos its a ****ing rip off

    So the main event will cater for the Yabks?!?! I hope not, otherwise I got no chance if getting back in time for Khan-Paulie.

    Is it hard to get transport back to the docklands and that area from Upton Park...:think The Police will want Upton Park clear by Midnight at the latest I would think...:yep
