All quiet on the Aztex front!

Apologies for the lack of blogging lately, it's the old " Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it." !! Anyway, we are off to the UK on Monday so I will try and be that 'Somebody' and let you know how the trip is going, the players reactions to Stoke, line-ups for games and photos. I can tell you now that the players are very excited to be getting the opportunity to travel to England and play the likes of Stoke City. We play 3 very different teams in very different circumstances - great experience for the guys. The weather today was a good taste of what may be in store - we've told them to pack warm clothes and rain jackets.

Our daughter, Nikki, is at university in Sheffield so she is gathering her troops in support of the Aztex, making banners etc, to welcome them. She has attended 5 or 6 games over here in Austin so she's a true fan! We are looking forward to taking the Aztex team to their first Stoke City game - Can't wait to see their reaction to the spectacle and sound of what has become known as 'the Bear Pit' due to the amazing noise the fans make throughout the game.

So, I promise to blog during the whole of the trip - we will be back in Austin on 22nd October.
