Are any other Fishy members going to any Team GB games in The Olympics.

I've got tickets to the first group games at Old Trafford this Thursday. After watching their performance on TV the other night though, I can't say I'm very hopeful of any real success.

Anyway, it's great value for money at £20 a ticket and for that you get 2 games in the same group. Afternoon game is Uruguay v United Arab Emirates and the evening game is Team GB v Senegal.

Staying over in Manchester on the Thursday evening and coming back on the Friday. Quite looking forward to it actually but moreso for the 2 days off work I reckon rather than any real expectation of seeing a great game of football.

Lost all interest as soon as Beckham wasn't picked. Couldn't care less anymore, to tell the truth.

Where are you staying in Manchester, Les? Fair few Manchester Mariners on here who may be able to help on places to eat & drink.

Staying above a pub in the centre of Manc on Thursday night Alfie, and no before you ask, it's not down (C)anal Street.

Off to some games with my boy at OT on Sunday, not TGB though, I think Brazil are playing in one of them. Got a corporate upgrade with food, car parking and Grade 1 seats (whatever they are!). Travelzoo did me a deal at £28 all in for the pair of us - bangin' value.

Wear a red carnation so that I'll recognise you.

Try and get yourself down to the Lass O'Gowrie, Les.
Some would argue it's a bit overrated but it's my favourite pub in the city centre. Five minute walk from Canal Street but serves a great pint (lots of real ales) and their pies are award winning.

I'd like to be bothered about team GB for the footy, but I'm just not in the slightest. I'm bored of my apathy
