Friend is annoyed I am not going to a game with him

If he can't understand that what is going on in your life is far more important than a sports game, he's not a friend.

Personally, I would tell him that I don't like his snide remarks and if he doesn't stop, he'll be looking for someone else to go to games with.

I'll remind you of this thread you started almost a year ago:

My friend is rude and ignorant — MoneySavingExpert Forum

Did you take the advice given in that thread?

Here's what I said:

I think you need to understand the definition of friend.
The person you describe is not a friend.
He is a user.
Either explain to him how you expect him to behave or cut him out of your life.
Well...that's what I'd do.

I did think I'd seen this before now you mention it.

The guy is taking the p*** 

You can't go to this match - end of story

For the future - tell him to pay up, shut up or get lost!

And it's not the only thread the OP has posted about this so-called friend.

Sometimes you just have to accept that someone you have always thought of as a friend is actually a user.

Seems like this friend is like a boyfriend. 

Boyfriend Vs girlfriend - pick one. 

But even if you choose boyfriend you have not done your duty to your child as a father. As a father you need to protect, provide and care for your child.

It's an old thread. 
The game has probably already happened by now.
