I am. I'm on my way to Gordon Biersch right now. I figure I'll catch up to him by the time he's started his pint sprints.

We will just have to wait for Diceson's report.

I called DCU front office asking for Fridays practice details. I was told practice is closed to public.
Given this extract from this weeks post I was not happy: "When Quintanilla made his first appearance at a United practice two weeks ago, several dozen fans were there to welcome him".
Can any kind person give me the details that DCU won't give to a season ticket holder (since98)?

Practice is closed to the public. But nothing is stopping you ( I don't think, but there may be a large rinocerous in your way ) from taking a nice stroll through Lot 7, during practice time......and if you inadvertantly catch a glimpse or two of practice, nobody is going to wipe your memory.
Except for the guys in the black suits who'll come to your house tonight.

I was not sure if practice was at the auxiliary fields or at GMU. Do you know what time it starts/ends.
Thanks

It's obviously closed as they're going through the strategy required to break through the vaunted NE defense.

Well, there aren't 3000 piss-drunk Brits throwing crap on the field and starting fights when certain teams come to town, although we could probably arrange that pretty quickly.
This whole Gazza thing is Hudson's show; he doesn't want folks to notice that Gazza probably won't be match fit for another month.

Diceson spoke with a guy from the BBC who stated that Gazza is in very good shape. I know it's third-hand information, but I am optimistic.

I just got back, I missed the running around but caught them milling around at the end. Gascoigne definitely isn't fat. If his mind is up for it, then it also looks like his body is too.
Pope was kitted out, but he did say that he and Marco were playing this weekend when interviewed on DC101 this morning.
