You should mention it to the BBC, they've got a piece on a Swansea fan flying in from Perth.

Perth is closer than Sydney by 4 hours.

I wish I was going, but the Missus/Work/bank account does not understand the importance of such a match.

I'm probably travelling the furthest in England. A badly planned trip to the inlaws for the bank holiday weekend means i get on a train at 8.07 from carlisle!

Was hoping, given his name, Platypuss would be our furthest traveller for the play-offs. I'm disappointed in him now. :wink:

I think the longest, is a Royals fan flying back for the game from New Zealand's South Island.

My friend Tash is going to Wembley from Okinawa, Japan!
She is kind enough to tell me that she will buy a programme and send it to me.
