A friend who moved to San Diego last year hasn't commented yet but he is a MAD Baggies fan so will be VERY pissed!!!

As for putting bums on seats, is soccer that well followed that Real will mean more to the American soccer fan than, say, West Brom or even Wednesbury Paper Boy First XI ???

I noticed this story today and read that West Brom had organised flights / accomodation / visas etc.
I imagine there will be a few annoyed PA's somewhere.

As for moving, I've moved a couple of times in the last 5 years and still have stuff up the loft from the first move!
My brother helps me move and this time, I've told him we'll have a long wheelbase van and a skip on the drive.
What doesn't fit in the van will fit in the skip!!
(That's a big dumpster for the Americans reading this).

I'm moving to Burton-upon-Trent so I'm much nearer to the Peak District etc. Great riding roads though heavily policed at weekends (bikes/cars/helicopter) when the crotch rocket brigade roar around like loons, spoiling it for everyone else.
