Figured I'd put one up here. From across the pond. Been supportin the Whites for the past six years or so, over a quarter of my life.

Anyone know if the game tonight'll be on TVAnts or what channel it'll be on?

Welcome. This is a friendly board with quite a few from outside the UK. (Mainly the US and Australia)

Upstate New York. Closest Canadian cities would be Toronoto or Montreal, both about 4 to 5 hours.

Where bouts you from?

Well, as my name and location might suggest, I'm from Montreal Quebec, while American Trotter is from Boston. So are we talking Syracuse, Ithaca, or what? And how did you come to be a follower of our unfashionable team?

The game will be on FSW delayed at 5.

Upstate New York> I went to Ithaca and Rochester, separateky last year. Not very populated, but beautiful. Long drive on 90.

More Easterly. Saratoga area. I picked up the Whites when I first got FSW at college. I live in a town called Charlton, but those obnoxious yellow jersey's and Jimmy Floyd never did anything for me. And the Wanderers were mid-table. I wasn't front running, and there's a town called Bolton Landing a little ways away. Not to mention Sam and his boys are quite impressive. To do what they've done on the funds they have is amazing.

Charlton? Must be a bus stop between the I87 and the I90. :wink: Bolton Landing is on Lake George (I've been there) - Must be less than five hours driving here. Do you follow the horses?

It's not even a bus stop. It's a po-dunk town. More cows than people kind of deal. I went to school at St. Lawrence, took me four hours-ish to get to Maseena, so I kind of rounded up. Don't really follow the horses, but I guess I probably should, being that they're twenty minutes away.
