We’re heading to England next season

[eball]

@GunnerBill — I have a feeling I, and many others, are going to be seeking your input and guidance for a visit across the pond in the fall…

 

Cheers!

 

[BritishBill]

Get in there! (although sorry to all you season ticket holders!)

Love the 10:00 am start.  Though screws up my Sunday golf game.  Should make them in November, when the weather starts turning here.  Dislike moving a September/October game from Buffalo when better chance at decent weather.

Not a fan, but they weren’t going to avoid it forever. 

Actually hate the idea all together. I have never been on board with the England games and never will be.

I'm guessing it will be our "home" game versus the Raiders. Can't be Jags as they have their own game; and many of our other home slate have played in London more recently than the Raiders (2019).  NFL isn't going to put Bills/Cowboys in London, surely?

Do we know that for sure? Could be @JAX or something.

Do we know this yet? Do we know it's Home game and not a road?

 

 

 

Yes, article said it's a home game for us in place of one of our 9 Buffalo home games, so an away game for our opponent.

Perfect time to visit my buddy in London.

No Mexico game or not considered “international”

Inevitable....the Bills played a road game last time.  But still sucks

Vs Titans, which makes no sense as we don't play the Titans next year 🤣

 

 

 

 

Damn, I was hoping it was the Chiefs in London so their fans could whine about a neutral site again.

I’m gobsmacked!

[Realist]

Won't be any of the teams scheduled to play there, the announced teams are all the home teams, from what it sounds like.

Last time, in 2015, against the Jags, I went through this company, for my game tickets and hotel.

 

Gullivers Sports Travel | Rugby, Cricket, Motorsport, Golf, Hockey, Supporter Packages, Tours, Travel & Sports Hospitality with tickets (gulliverstravel.co.uk)

 

Very easy to work with.  Plus they did a Saturday night reception at a pub, with a former Bills player.  Well, the wife (then girlfriend) and I walked in late, to see Jim Kelly and Thurman Thomas sitting there! Only about 20-30 people showed up, so it was great.  They took questions and hung around for a little while so people could get pictures with them.

They play at the same stadium.  On different weeks, not each other.  😏

This is bloody good news innit?

[Taro Nimbus]

Welp…. Guess I better get my passport in order!   

[The Jokeman]

So are we going to play against New England?

[Ray Stonada]

I will do my best to attend at this game!

 

Would love to do a tailgate with some of the UK based members and others who travel to London.

But it is a 9 home game season. So you only lose the bonus game.

We lose a Home game, but will still have 8 as the AFC has the extra game next season.

Right, but most other AFC teams will have 9 home games to our 8. I mean, I get it, but I’m always going to want the Bills to have any advantage they can, or avoid any disadvantage. I’m not mad, I’m just crabby. 🙃

The Bills and Titans will both play at the same stadium, but not at the same time. Note that same applies to Chiefs and Patriots - they’re playing separate Germany games. 
 

Anyway, though I’m kinda annoyed, I also think it’s fairly cool. And I’m happy for our UK fans - especially the ones on this board! I’ll try to go to this game if possible, but it’s gonna be a long shot for sure.
