    NFL 2025

    At the game vs the Browns, my wife completely surprised me. I'd already bought a good amount of clothes, usually college football related so thought I had no chance of any Lions merch at the game. Thought I would try and twist her arm to get a jersey but thought that was a long shot. Once I...

    NFL 2025

    Emotional return for DMo too, great for him to play in front of his sister for the first time. I'm back in Wales now after a great 12 days in the U.S. Was stunned by how warm it was for this time of the year, my wife was looking forward to fall but we ended up severely overdressed for 26...

    NFL 2025

    It went well all the way through!! A great day. The city was buzzing from 8am when we went for breakfast. Then people setting up tailgates. Ford field is colossal, like a city itself. The shop was amazing, there's not a lot they haven't branded with the Lions and then sell!! Could talk for...

    The Lower Leagues Thread

    As a Swans season ticket holding Wycombe fan I love threads where I can indulge the light and dark blue quartered swan in me. This season has been a bit gloomy off of the back of real success last season until the manager changed. Mike Dodds replaced Matt Bloomfield and the club turned to a...

    NFL 2025

    Looking forward to the Browns at Ford Field got tickets behind the endzone. I was thinking of touching base with you to see if there was anywhere that will be playing the Swans game on the 27th (7:30 am in the States I think) until I realised we will be driving from Cleveland to Detroit on that...

    NFL 2025

    I'm heading out in just under 2.5 weeks. Got MNF against the Ravens and I've found a Lions bar in Boston, then the Brown's at Ford Field. Fancied finding a College game between Cleveland and Detroit but that may be too much for Mrs F. I don't really have a bucket list, but if I did...

    Family Tree

    I looked into a bit of this on a free Ancestry trial. My dad died in 1989 and we lost touch with his mother so I've always been interested in his side of the family. My mum's side is all quite well known within the family. He was born in 1942 in Chepping Norton and there is no entry for...

    When we arrived in NYC last year and were headed to the Lions bar we popped to a shop to get a sandwich. $10!!

    Morning Cooperman, Just wanted to say thanks for all the comments and general encouragement within the NFL threads especially my trip in September. If you've got any tips or suggestions when it comes to travelling in the U.S (or particularly Detroit) I'd love to hear them. Thanks Ian (CSF)

    NFL 2025

    Well we've got two nights in Niagara on the Canada side so it may be an option. I think that's going to be the opportunity to exercise the nature part of our personalities! Would love to see a Northern cardinal. When we got back from New York we talked about another trip and my wife was...

    NFL 2025

    You've got the right guy! Boston, Ithaca, Niagara, Cleveland, Detroit, Holland Michigan, and Chicago. Two nights in the big cities and one night in the stopovers (and Cleveland). The last task is to now persuade my wife that a baseball game in Cleveland is a good idea!!

    NFL 2025

    £264 each!! And that's upper bowl behind the endzone. But the way I'm viewing it, is it's a once in a lifetime trip so I've justifying it that way!! Plenty of Lions fans on Reddit really bemoaning the uprise in ticket prices as the club have got more successful. Some referenced $16 tickets...

    NFL 2025

    So I know for many this will be an early post, but we've already had the start of the league year and trading period start on the 12th March and then the combine and draft. But most importantly for me last night the schedule came out and tickets were released. Anyone who read last season's...

    Cardiff’s Relegation

    As someone who has proudly received his latest Wycombe shirt in SA6 the weekend has given me hope. BUT our last four fixtures are 4th 5th 7th and 8th. Wrexham's are 5th 10th 12th and 21st, so they are definitely in the driving seat. It looks like we'll have to do it through the playoffs again...

    The Birds In The Garden And Everywhere Else Thread

    I'm by Morriston Park. Plenty of birds in my garden. Goldfinches, Robins, blue, great and Coal tits, jackdaws, wood and feral pigeons, a wren, and a goldcrest as well as about 6-9 parakeets. From the house we can hear teh woodpecker in the park as well as tawny owls. Oh and don't forget teh...
