Mad that I feel emotional about all this already. The place that me and my Dad have shared moments and lifetime memories, the place where we have been part of a tri-generational visits, the place my Dad had dreamed of earning enough to be a season ticket holder before his day of actually getting one, is singing her last song, shining her last light and accompanying her last moment of memories on the 18th May. There are countless moments I will remember her for, far to many to mention, but this will be a special one. One that will start on Saturday night and end deep into Monday.

The very greatest of them all will close her doors for the last time as the greatest arena in the game. Remembered and revered by so many across the world for her many firsts, we will exclusively be experiencing one of her only lasts.

I'd have liked the 16:30 kick-off that Sunday - allows for the game to be televised for fans wishing to view from afar and also suits the supporters attending the game (it feels like these supporters are the last ones to be considered at times).
 
Kick off time suits me.
I have no chance of getting a ticket for the last game, I have access to a ticket on a fairly regular basis, but obviously the holder will want to go to the last dance.
While Dyche was still in charge and we were in amongst the fodder, i decided to get the hell out of dodge for the last couple of games, I didn't want to be around if we were relegated.
I'm in Cyprus for the Southampton game, kick off for me will be 2.00pm (all inclusive as well), Hotel 1st week, cruise 2nd week
For the Newcastle game the week after I'm on a cruise around the greek isles and i'll be in the middle of the ocean when we kick off (another game i was desperate to avoid back in Dyche world)
I'll watch the saints game live in the bar and Everton are bound to have a youtube catch up by the time i get back.

6am wake up to walk dog
7am leave house
7:30am kick pub door down and grab 1st pint
9am breakfast
9:45am stagger to goodison
10am too tired to welcome team bus and try and find a bog to unload the morning log
11am try and have a couple of swift pints to find 2nd wind and enthusiasm
11:15am only wind you get is down below and another trip to bog required
11:30am power nap in your seat
11:55am roar team onto pitch
12:02pm boo team as the Saints take an early lead.
Hope you don’t suffer from constipation mate…..that timescale could be in trouble if you do 😄
 

Around 4pm would have been ideal I think but I guess people will have different needs and different perspectives.

We know the details now and we'll embrace it.
