andyhrfc 2,242 Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Most games can be done on the cheap. Need to be on the ball with flights and accommodation the moment the draw is made. Leave it 20 minutes and the likes of Ryanair will treble their prices. Think outside the box like not flying from Glasgow. If you get it right you are looking at a couple of nights accommodation and flights for £150- £200. CoopsLaud and BEE 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiorentina day trip was £300, well worth it! Cedrick 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Enclosure Row N 2,823 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Just got the email through inviting me to join the travel club for £20. £20 for what? Fuck all it looks like. Did they refund those that joined last year for one shitey night in Luxembourg? What do you get for £20 - the right to join a queue for a ballot for a ticket? We've all done that already as season ticket holders. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you'd have to pay 20 quid at some point. It happened with Psv in 2011 Cedrick 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The costs must cover the set up costs to fly the staff out, book the hotel and distribute the match tickets it all needs paid for .. sure a couple of thousand people paying £20 a pop would have meant Progrès they came out on profit but if we got to group stages that’s that’s maybe 6 away fixtures - that would end up costing the club a lot of money to process the tickets out there in all honesty Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at the end of the day I don't begrudge paying it again and then paying the costs of going away. Ye the game was fucking awful but half the buzz is getting away with your mates to a new city to watch the team you love. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
