So are they showing 2 games at the same stadium on Wednesday and then again on the Saturday? I suppose everyone's seen that we play Everton first. Not been on this thread for a couple of weeks. Correct. Not sure what they will do in the event of a draw though, as extra time and pens will be almost an hour over run. 1 ticket gets you into both games, us v everton is 1st up, then on the Saturday the 3rd/4th place play off is 1st.[/quote] Already assuming that we'll lose to Everton

I never said that we are 1st on Saturday, I said 3rd/4th place is 4th.

Bollocks. My tickets are on the wrong side in blocks 109 and 113. Asked my mate in Singapore to get tickets by the dugouts. Hoping that we can take a walk across to the Stokies.
franklin indicated that the seating arrangements MIGHT be a little 'relaxed'
Let's hope so
He also mentioned something about a 'meet the players' thing, too!!
Hey up Stoke have the corner with all off the 140 and 440 blocks, so if you are in block 141 or 441 they are the official Stoke section. I can not see it being a sell out so it may be possible to move over to the other fans. I know ange1 aka Angela Smith is in contact with the club trying to see if she can arrange a meet the players nothing concrete but I think it will be a good move to get them over to meet some of the fans. I and one or two others have also made contact trying to organise a meet and greet day with the players. I will catch you guys later some alcohol with my name on it has just arrived on my balcony and its crying out to be drunk ????

It would be a nice touch if one or two popped over to meet us, I think there are a few other none oatcake stokies staying at our hotel mate so with a bit of luck there may well be enough for a minibus full ????

I'd be happy to participate in any get-togethers that give me the opportunity to meet up with fellow Stokies/Oatcakers; and put real names and faces to the Oatcake personae I've come to know over the past few years

Hi there
The Singapore $ is almost on a par with the Australian $ but that doesn't help much if you're holding Sterling
My local currency converter says One Pound Sterling = 2.13 Singapore $ if that helps??

I've just spotted the "End of Season DVD" thread.
Would someone who's going to Singapore do me a favour and bring me one, PLEASE!!??
I'll pay for it beforehand or when I catch up with you
(Joe - you're going to Singapore aren't you? I noted that you've been quoted absolutely ridiculous postage charges to get one sent. I'm sure SOMEONE will be able to help?)

Would be good if you amended the first post into a list of everyone who is confirmed and maybe even where they are sitting/staying. I'm devastated. I got caught out in the rain (anyone who has visited Malaysia/KL will appreciate what a monsoon is!) and my passport got water damaged Annoyingly the only part that suffered damage is a water spot obscuring half of my face on the bio data page ffs!!!! I'm back in the UK as of 3rd July until 12th so im hoping to get it done within the 7day turnaround so i can still come to Singarich and meet all you fellow, lovely oatcake eaters! As a side note im so p**ed off with the UK system. Can renew an old passport within 1 day but if you damage any part of it, no that will take 1 week and you need to get new pictures countersigned etc etc!? Goarn you potters!

Hoping theres some sort of square that we all end up drinking in There are no real squares in the European sense to my knowledge. Bars tend to be congregated on roads/streets like the UK...or Quays if you are flush with cash.

Normally a good starting point would be an Irish Bar. I'll get my pal in Singapore to recommend one for us, but as others have stated, not cheap. Less than 2 weeks. Can't bloody wait. Any expats want to get their mugs in a sentinel article let me know, we are arranging to meet with them ay some point.
