Unable to attend as I'm working. Not sure how I'll keep up to date with the match. Going to be a tough one, hope our players are up for a bit of a battle!

Cheers Pete.

I'm going 3-1. Bowman double and Parkes header. Pools get a late consolation.

If you haven't set out yet.....think about wearing something warm! It's currently 3c with a brisk (and keen) northerly wind. We have 100% blue cloudless sky at the moment. There's been a trace of rain in the last 24 hours and although it'll get slightly warmer during the course of the morning it's going to be cold. The pitch looked in really good condition 30 minutes ago and it'll be a great day for attacking football; so let's hope it's City that are doing the attacking. I'll probably do a 12.30 update.

I'd also think about bringing your sunglasses if you're standing on The Big Bank. I've been down on Exmouth beach with the dog this morning and the sun low but very bright.

Good advice, Harris, although it's clouded over somewhat since 10:00. The wind is chilly. The thermometer says 6c, but it feels much colder, because the wind from the north has increased slightly in strength. Just about to set off for the ground and a warming drink of some kind...…..
