Remember seeing England vs Germany with "That" disallowed Lampard goal at the festival in (I think?) 2010. It was quite something to see so many people get up on their feet in celebration and then instantly watch the disbelief and anger that swept through the field. And to be honest I wouldnt be against them showing games but only if it didnt interfere with the music and i think if its not a wednesday or thursday kick off thats impossible. As has been said, people have mobiles these days and its easy enough to watch it if people really want.

By comparison my celeb spotting is shockingly poor. But then i'm noutoriously blind and could have walked past Taylor Swift without knowing. Louis Theroux, Jammie Carragher, Matt Smith and my highlight, High fiving Brian Cox (the musician/scientist not the actor)

Crap my names Dave. I guess i better get to learning some songs. Anyone know how to play Careless Whisper?

Having accidently not booked a bus until too late this year and getting in late because of it (Didnt really work out poorly as still got a decent spot) I have booked my National Express from London nice and early this year. Although quite how I´m going to get to Stratford for 3:30am is yet to be seen. As a lot of my friends are now apparently posh toffs and use WV theres only one or two of us who need to set up tents so its actually become much easier to set up. At least compared to when we were young/cheap and needed space for 6 tents.

The question ive been asking about it being overly busy is as a group i swear we say that everytime we go. Is it actually busier or is it just us forgetting how busy it is every year?

18/30 for us. Not a bad success rate but yeah gutted for those who didn't get in.

just got through and got a set of 6. Still trying for friends though,

Brings new meaning to The Blue Screen Of Death

My friends on O2 and it's been awful. EE has been fine for me.

My usual tactic the last few times is to catch the 4:30am bus from Victoria and arrive early. Its worked nicely the last few times, set up nice and early with a decent spot and chill for a few hours before going to explore. Weirdly I checked National Express for early morning coaches the other day and there's nothing between like 1am and 6am at all at the moment. Wonder if they add them later depending on demand? never noticed them not being there before.

A friend managed to get my tickets right at the last moment. Didn't even see beyond the waiting page myself. He managed to get through 3 times. Makes no sense.

Well I said I'd happily set up a 2nd spreadsheet last week when i got back to the UK. Got to the UK and instantly got hit by a nasty bout of the big C. Ughhhh. Managed to avoid it for 2 years so suppose it was going to happen eventually. Anyway id someone set up a 2nd one or do we still need a new sheet?

I'm more than happy to admin a 2nd group sheet. Won't be back in the UK until mid week so can't set it up until after then. So don't start spamming me with codes just yet I've run one for my group for years so will give it a go when I'm home and post on here when I'm back and have everything set up. If I remember previous resales have been groups of 2 for coach and groups of 4 for standard tickets? Or am I misremembering?
