matthewuk Jun 2, 2010 12:41 pm

I presume the flight number is VS1966

(cue loads of Scots spilling their Tenants on seeing such an early introduction of that number in this thread)

Hehehe... but seriously, I hope they're going on BA57 rather than VS. Has it been confirmed how they're getting there?

EDIT: I see the Nigerians have chartered an aircraft from STN http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...10/8718156.stm Will England do the same?

EDIT 2: Dammit, seems they are going VS :( http://www.travelmole.com/stories/1142577.php
