Blimey not seen you for a while pal. I genuinely thought you had died.

Bachanalia for me for pre match cocktails.

I imagine Man United V Liverpool is considered a higher risk fixture by GMP than the Super League Grand Final.

I've openly drank cans outside Lou Macari's chippy and the away coach park on more than one occasion prior to that game.

Murph

Attire : I know you like your towny brands but I was thinking of Hugo Boss (not Boss Orange) black trainers (if dry weather the white D&G Italias get a spin), this season's Paul Smith (not PSJ) straight jeans, Aquascutum fitted white shirt and and Prada "Manc look" black winter coat with fur collars? Socks and underpants - undecided.

Will I get in the boozers in Manc or do I need Adidas LA's and a ty polo for fifty nicker?

Hugo Boss shoes are okay, but Hugo Boss trainers? Not quite right that is it?

Aquascutum is a hoolie brand.

Not a true fan.

Just to clarify, somebody wearing an item of clothing, that obviously can be removed in only a few moments, indicating their support for a particular sporting team is untrendy/unfashionable/uncool/perhaps even immature in your opinion.

But a tattoo, presumably permanent, is absolutely fine?

Replica shirts are for children.

Tattoos are for adults.

Therefore, in answer to your question, yes.

Murph:

Tattoos - never quite got it. Why does anyone feel the need to write on themselves once they have passed the age of 6? Are they simple?

Clothes Advice : To be honest fella I've put more expensive gear in the Red Cross white bag outside my door than you declare to wear on these posts. LOL Adidas FFS you must be on the breadline, live in an 80's time warp or deluded. Or all three.

Anyone onto transport to the game..

Transport : Was thinking of the wife's E93 M3 but may have to slum it in my 997 C2S. What do you reckon?

Now I think about it, I'm pretty sure I've already met Dropkick.

Dead cool. Versace shirt. Armani Shorts. Trainers by Dior and tacky LFC 5 cup calf tatto by Saz.

To be honest he sounds like the person you dread to meet on holiday and then say to the wife "See, I told you we should have spent more on our bargain last minute trip".

I'd rather cut my c*ck off than wear a Liverpool shirt in public, nevermind the full kit.

I have lots of tattoos. I like them.

No disrespect taken, ive been the last 7 years and seen hundreds and hundreds of people drinking outside the chippys and off-licences there. They do have a barricade of bins manned by Police as you approach the stadium area.

Toll Gate is a great pub, they have a good area outside where you can enjoy pints/chat with other fans.

I do hope they are an "ever so retro" Adidas tan shoe? Plus I always had Murph as much shorter. Don't know why.

I'll be having a few drinks in the Salisbury, just at the bottom of the steps down from Oxford Rd station. I'll be wearing boot cut faded denim Jeans, snake skin Cowboy boots, Jet black long sleeve shirt and Denim waistcoat. hair tied back in a pony tail, and chewing gum while drinking Jack Daniels.

I shall stick Iron Maiden fear of the dark on the Jukebox and no one shall utter a bleedin word till its finished......I thank you....


Dropkick that's fashion my son you have not got a clue. I weep for you absolutely weep......

Conversation was the unlikelihood of Warrington being in the Grand Final anytime soon. And the fact that we'd probably sit there in disbelief for most of it.
