Barcelona & Celtic

Recommended Posts

Flying from Stansted at 8:30am on the Tuesday, flying back late Sunday evening (basically making a week of it). Flights in total were £94 each (including return) so can't complain at that.

Ideally you want to fly to Stockholm Arlanda not Skavsta, as the latter leaves you just over an hour away by train, and you'll have to get the bus first to get to the station.

From Arlanda you can jump straight on a train half hour away from the city centre.

I really wanted to do this. It all looked like it tied up nicely.

The wife even gave the ok. Although she did want to fly out with us but not do the football.

However the more I think about it. It's 4 days before a potential community shield.

How strong a side are either us or barca for that matter going to put out.

And the wife has pointed out if we are gonna have 3 of the real deal in Europe do I risk not being able to do those?

Really envy anyone able to go and wish money and time was no object. But I guess I'm going to have to save myself for once the draw for the group phase is done and plan some trips then.

It's all fell lucky for me. Retire on 23rd June, referendum day. Sold the house, moving into a flat, so will have a few quid left over.

Never played golf, but my wife wishes I had as she reckons a golf widow is better than a football widow, as I will be going everywhere watching the city literally til I die!

Even if you were reluctant I'd have a bit more sympathy. But £50 a ticket for a friendly taking place four days after a match in Los Angeles (5,500 miles) and four days before a potential Community Shield at Wembley is a bit steep isn't it? Of course it's the Barcelona factor, and the "International Champions Cup," but drill it down and it's still a friendly. 

 

Amazed at the "shut up and take my money" attitude.

 

It's Leicester against Barcelona, in Stockholm, for god's sake. Last year we had Mansfield and Rotherham away. £50 is steep but you pay whatever to be there, we don't get many opportunities like this...

 

Got mine at the back of the first tier behind the goal

We have a few opportunities like this next season.

If it was either a competitive match, or on a weekend, or at the Camp Nou, I'd be there like a shot. This one doesn't appeal to me personally.

You going to miss the charity shield then?

Flying to Stockholm on the Tuesday, then Thursday morning getting the train to Oslo (about 5 hours), then flying back from Oslo Friday evening. Really looking forward to it. Ticket wise we'll blag one on the day while we're there.

Got bored at work and found myself buying tickets for me and my son to go to the Barca game!  Flying from Bham via Copenhagen - hope to see some of you there.  

It's still ridiculous and absurd and crazy - we are the champions!
