Up early as my daughter woke me as she was going to work.

Nervous about this one. Despite all the bad weather in other areas, ours looks like it might hold good.

Big day!!!

Morning all. Hope the weather in Coventry is somewhat better than here - tis biblical rain at the mo. About to walk the dog - I may get back! Journey time yesterday with the weather and the rush was between 3 and 4 hours according to Google so will set off early - giving ourselves 4 - 5 hours one way. Boy do I deserve a win (3-0 will do).

Safe jopurneys to all who are going and a Happy Christmas - please!

Doubled.
Let me tell you something cucumber

Clear skies and sunny, Neils. But a bit of wind. As I look out the window right now.

Morning All!

Finally the kids weekend activities have all stopped, and so I stand a chance of being able to watch this match.  That being said I'm not sure if my heart is up to it.  It feels like an absolute must win, season defining game to me, and I have no confidence that we can win it based on previous form.  However with Big Joe back we can expect a bit of a lift, and with Jacob in the chair we have some creativity.

If ever there was a time to up your game boys this is it .

Morning all. Rain has stopped in Halesowen, big shop for Christmas done early. Relaxing morning before heading over. Need to pick up a new hoodie for the boy at the club shop so going slightly earlier.

Huge, huge game today. I'd go so far as to say the biggest since the Prem Final v Exeter. It feels pivotal to everything moving forward on the 5th anniversary of the first game at the Ricoh. Win today and we can start to build a bit of momentum, we need to be solid all over the pitch and clinical when chances arise. Every single player, coach and even us supporters have to step up and play their part today. The extra spice being that it's the proper derby too.

I don't want to contemplate losing...

Mon the Wasps!!!!!

Morning all.

Bright and sunny here in S Bucks. Should be OK in Cov for the game.

Last minute seasonal stuff to get before heading off to HW station to get up to the match.

Fingers crossed on this one.

Safe travels everyone.

Good morning all.  Not optimistic about the journey or the game but am looking forward to the fireworks. 

Dear Santa Claus please may I have a bonus point win for Wasps, I have been very good.

Morning Nelly’, morning all

Bright and fresh at Coombe Abbey Treated ourselves to bit of luxury for the Christmas Cracker. Shouldn’t have chosen the night of their medieval Christmas banquet.

Raggs - are you sporting baubles in your beard this time?

Looking forward to the match. Optimistic, as ever.

Come on .... you Wasps too-loo-rye-aue!

Good morning all from Hastings. Sun trying to break through the clouds. Looking forward to the game. I would usually expect us to beat the Hairy Queens at home. Today, I'm not so confident. Step up to the plate Jacob.

Alas disaster struckand i can't find my baubles or tinsel. Only the lights. Didn't bother with the lights on their own. Going to have to get some more.

Morning all, best wishes to you and yours.

Too many things to do for the amount of time available!

Well all I can say is that Wasps need to kick some hairy backsides!

Safe travels all, I plan to go hoarse cheering for the team.

Train to the Arena is cancelled. Shuttle buses. Decided to just get a taxi from covto the hotel rather than to the Ricoh and them walk to hotel.

Anyone know when the fan zone closes?

Edit 7pm. 6.30pm last orders.
