hahaha talking of the fade theyve put EVERY player up for trade! hahaha

Ours came yesterday. Not far away now, although I don't think my 49ers fan mate is looking forward to it as much as he was at the start of the season after the awful start.

I got an email to say mine are still being printed - be here eventually.

Anyone off to the fanzone

Yea, the tailgate bit was pretty cool last year. They've moved it to a bigger location this year, so should be good. Get a chance to see the trophys/rings etc.

Last year was the first time I'd seen sport in 3D in the NFL tent, so old-school now that!

[USRoverME]

WOW! first weekend this season where Buffalo didn't lose!

Something to build on, lads!

I'm going to be in New York for two weeks in November. I want to try to get out to the New Meadowlands for the Cowboys game on the 14th. Does anyone have any advice on getting tickets from scalpers? I've been looking at ticket prices online but they are (understandably perhaps) very pricey. What's the deal with tailgate parties generally (not necessarily at New Meadowlands)? Are games shown on a big screen at these tailgate parties? Apologies if these questions are stupid, I simply have no idea.

Cheers.

Tailgating at the Meadowlands definitely won't help you see the game. Unless there's an official tailgate party, it's basically nothing more than a huge amount of people getting to the game four hours early and sitting around their parked cars, barbecuing, drinking, and playing games before they go in. As cool an experience as it can be, it's only really worth the effort to tailgate if both a) you're going to the game and you have at least three other people with you.

No idea about scalpers, to be honest. I'd ask that question on an excellent NYG community I've visited a few times, Big Blue View.

My personal recommendation is to blow 300 quid of your savings for two tickets on StubHub or TicketExchange, as it will be a once in a lifetime awesome experience. If not, though, I'd watch the game in Manhattan at any sports bar. Ones I've been to: 123 Burger Shot Beer(sells $1 burgers, $2 shots and $3 beers, has in-game beer pong matches, is incredible), Third and Long or the Overlook

[Rovermatt]

Thank you very much. I'll be staying with my uncle in Hoboken so I'll head to his local Irish bar to watch the Seahawks game at least.

matt Ive used stub hub 3 times in the past ,2 for bronco tickets 1 in denver and 1 in az and i also used them for the diamondbacks. there a glorified tout but they have never let me down....if you add $20 on the price of face value you wont be far off.

Not surprised currently 59-14 in the fourth quarter... 317 rushing yards allowed so far...

Packers vs Vikings tonight on Channel 4. Hopefully they can win tonight otherwise I will be miserable.

[ABBEY]

DISGRACE!!!! ALL AROUND THE GROUND YOU COULD HEAR TEEEEBOW CHANTS. THERE WERE NUMEROUS FIGHTS AMONGST FANS APPARENTLY......HEADS WILL ROLL IS THE GENERAL OPINION ON THE BRONCOS BOARDS.

[modes98]

Hands up who benched McFadden..... Just me then! He basically outscored my whole team to this point!

49ers v Broncos, could be an interesting game!

[ABBEY]

3-17

I did as well, didn't expect him to get anywhere near that many carries.

Great to watch the 49ers collapse yet again...

Horrible season.

[USRoverME]

hey, chin up Eddie and Abs... at least you aren't Bills fans!

oh, crap. I am.

[sleepyjack]

At least you didn't lose to the Browns.

[Rovermatt]

Stupid turnovers aside, the Giants put together a fantastic effort in Dallas last night. They recovered heartily from a dreadful opening quarter and simply tore into the Cowboys. The last couple of minutes were a bit edgier than they needed to be (Bradshaw's fumbling continues to be a blotch on his otherwise excellent play). Oh and they also did us all a favour and dropped that slippery tit Romo for the season.

[USRoverME]

At least you didn't lose to the Browns.

We'll have our chance in a few weeks, I believe.

Who has directions to the green man from wembley park tube station.

Who has directions to the green man from wembley park tube station.

The Green Man is good, went there before Swindon's play off final in May. You take a left turn and go up a big hill. That's all I can remember.

[American]

I remember it being a ways from the Tube, but a good place. Went there before the England/US friendly a few years back. Facing the stadium from the tube station, I remember it being on the right hand side, up a street and slightly past the stadium.

We should get a board meetup going, as I know several of us will be there. PM me if you're going and we can exchange mobile numbers. Also, anyone going to the thing in Trafalger on Saturday?

[rog of the rovers]

They should give the ball to Tebow on Sunday! Just to make it interesting!

I must say, to the neutral it looks like its going to be a decent high scoring game, but for the wrong reasons, if you know what I mean.

[ABBEY]

sat...im off to ttraqfalgur square and the fanzone with my nephew.....evening im meeting a few off the bronco website i use,7pm brewmaster opp leicester sq tube staion..

We always get the train in from the midlands and hit the Hotel Ibis. Expensive but right outside the ground with a big screen for the footy.
