At home, as I watch through my fingers of one hand, while the other holds a drink / snacks, and trying not to get annoyed by the other half ( Norwich supporter ).

Then running around like a lunatic when we win ( or if we don't, saying "at least we stayed up")

My couch, California. The wife & kids will be over at the mother in laws. We decided it was best they didnt see their father cry, which is likely, win or lose.

I was planning to find a pub somewhere down here, or mooch along ticketless to Wembley just to be there. But I reckoned without how late it is this year, and the fact it's the same day as my son's birthday.

So I'll be watching on TV somewhere near Doncaster and keeping half an eye on H&V, which is in fact far better than being there. Yay!

I'll not bother with a pub. Don't want to run the risk of any noses spoiling the atmos.

But aren't they all literate, in S U A, as opposed to illegitimate being your everyday run of the mill nose  8)

I'll be watching it with my fathe in Northamptonr who followed Villa thru every round all the way to the final in 1957. I'm hoping he will be seeing them win it for a second time.
