Thanks guys for the info
Players arrive at the ground 3 hours before kick off
If you get there early and get your photos and look around you`ll probably find theres a meet up of caf regulars at the tollgate.Theres usually a thread on here the day before.
If its the southampton game I`ve been chubbed but I`m sure g4orce,stoned rose,and yaps`ll be there at least.

what pub will the cafe regulars be in for the Nicosia game (will be my first game since the 1996 FA cup SF). Will it be a Nicosia or Machester pub...?
Thanks again 4 the replies, I have no idea of what to do and this info helps me piece together what to do. How awesome to meet up with Red Cafe people at the Tollgate. OK players arrive 3 hours so I have to get there at midday, thanks Elizabeth, do u know what end. Its so weird being here in Australia and reading you guys talk and then getting a chance to meet you people. Is this good committment, arrive 6.30am sat morn after 21 hour flight from Sydney Australia and get connecting to Manc. arrive 10.30am this is the only thing that will keep me awake. again thanks everyone
What time is it over there ,Darren?

I reckon United will win with a classic 5-0 victory, Forlan will score a hat-trick, and Darren will miss it coz he's asleep in the Tollgate.
Good call Man Utd in Oz, dont tell me that, surely no, this is going to keep me awake and the fish and chips do to, Hi Laura it is Saturday 1.20pm in the afternoon here in Wollongong Australia in NSW. The weather is around 24 degrees and its warm, we have not had much rain here this year and the bushfires are already starting, I live if u remember the big fires here only 1/2 hour away
I usually stand at the end of Matt Busby Way...............
