    Hey folks, are you another one of those people (like myself) where if people are stuck for a pressie they just got something football related? I've no problem with it, just always a noticable underlying theme thru the presents. This year was a good'un!

    -Aunt got me a signed copy of Paul McGrath's book - Savage!

    -Parents got me a liverpool FAcup 2006 t-shirt - Great!

    -GF's parents got me Fifa 07 (since PES 6 seeminly not on normal xbox) - Mighty

    Last but certainly not least...
    -Girlfriend got me tickets to Liverpool Middlesborough at Anfield in April - WOOOO HOOOOO!!! BEST PRESSIE OF ALL TIME! Complete with 2 nights in b&b as well :):D


    So, what football related stuff have people gotten this year?

    Cant remember where I came across it but might have been on the liverpool site. You can get a day out to Liverpool wher you train with a few of the old boys, Barnes was one I think, then have a meal a few other bits. Cant remember the details of it but it sounded great.

    I go tthe Steven Gerrard DVD this christmas.

    yeah, she got a "football package" from Atlas Travel Service.
    Its 2 nights accommodation at the Premier Travel Inn hotel in liverpool and the match tickets.

    All i know basically is whats in the voucher! I can give you the company's contact details anyway if you want.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,510 ✭✭✭sprinkles


    hmmmm..... something tells me that the celtic away strip [medium - real men wear large] will be exchanged tommorrow.

    also got 5 crisp Georgie Notes....ebay them off in a few years


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Cheers rebel, I thought it would be one of the package deals, I've used atlas before, they ain't bad, once you support the home team, was hoping there was a place you could buy regular tickets that far in advance.
