Worldwide Irons - Bye Bye Boleyn

Fucking hell the day is finally here!

Where in the world are we all coming in from or at least watching it tonight?

Just getting ready to leave Dubai to fly in for tonights game, a 9,000 mile round trip.

Excited, a bit emotional and above all up for making the most of what will be a memorable day and night whatever happens.

IRONS!!!!

I'll be watching from Newcastle Australia.

4.45AM kick off. I'll have my colours on, over my PJ's.

Lets give those Mancs the drubbing they so richly deserve but whatever the outcome, it'll be very emotional.

COYI's.

Will be watching in Melbourne up at 4 ish to watch sky, then all four of us will watch the game.

Will be watching next season on dodgy streams as not on TV here.

Full credit to you for going! Hope you and everyone else have a fantastic evening.

(Isn't the distance closer to 3,000 - 3,500 miles each way?)

Up at 4.30 tomorrow morning, to catch a bus at 6.am to the train station, then onto O'Hagan's in the Viaduct for kickoff at 6.45.

Was going to have some beers, but have project meetings all day, so it's a no go.

I did manage to reschedule the earliest one for 9.30 though, so I don't have to race away at the final whistle.

Even though I never managed to go regularly while I was in the UK, the Boleyn is still a special place.

Would be superb to smash up Man Utd in our final game, it really would.

Good work gents, good to see we are committed wherever we are! I'm moving o Oz in the next year or two, hope to catch you all down there for the early shifts :-)

Yeah Coffee good point! Just checked the distance and I think google assumed i was driving rather than flying :-)

I did read yesterday that the tv rights for Aussie next season have been bought by an operator who will be showing delayed full match broadcasts.

Delayed by 12 hours apparently and only for the so-called 'top-6' sides. Top 6 and do not include us or Leicester!

Dodgy streams all the way from now on then...

I feel for yyou fella's in Oz, if that was to happen in Thailand I really do think I would just want to fuck off, although I appreciate it's a lot different for you guys than it is for me.

Have a good trip, Holy. I would say it's a big effort but it's not really, you're just sitting on a plane getting pissed.

Will be on TV, but there are catches unless your with Optus as they have the rights, quite rightly there are more than a few football fans here who are not happy as the deal is cuntish unless your with these cunts.

Tonight, More than anything i hope we win, will be the end of an era but life goes on, its onwards and upwards for West Ham from here on in, we are going up in the world, although i think we will find more success, games will become more "happy clappy" but thats the way football is going, TV and big business have moved in, taken over and moved all the old furniture outside.

Mainly streamed there will be one channel, but that will even cost extra on top if you already have it. fucking steaming pile of cunt and I hate optus, and no guarantee the stream will work

Fraser.

I have done a little research into this and the truth is no one knows yet....except, Optus paid $50M for the rights. They will want a return. I expect to get EPL beamed in live off a satellite dish via Optus straight into my telly, similar as today, for $50 per month. Lovely job.

Re: Worldwide Irons - Bye Bye Boleyn

I absolutely love the fact a load of supporters are coming from overseas to be there ticketless. I think it's something I would defo do. My Dad has come over but luckily I have him a ticket but he would have come anyway.

Fucking great effort from you lot. I hope you have a great night!

Re: Worldwide Irons - Bye Bye Boleyn

Personally, I could not justify sitting on a plane for 12 hours, spending whatever that costs, just to walk around Green Steet and have a few beers in The Boleyn.

Imagine if that Nigerian deal had come off. You'd have been able to afford it easy.

Rotten luck.

Re: Worldwide Irons - Bye Bye Boleyn

Some cracking efforts lads.

I'll be on the sofa in Dublin with the baby in her West Ham onesie.

Hope you all enjoy your night and hopefully get a ticket.
