And sevilla hadn't lost a European knockout game for over 3 years.

If your willing to fly from Newcastle it's currently £174.00 return, going on the 10th to 14th

We hadn't won a major title for 132 years.....we win!

Excellent draw. We'll beat them.

Will the club be doing flights?

[lee7]

Just found one deal 500 for flights and then 140 quid for two nights in a hotel near the stadium 

That's for 2 adults mind

[stretch1965]

Think I am going to make a night of it in town instead, where is good to watch the match these days in the Center these days?

I say deal...flights and hotel are being booked separately. But both are the cheapest I've come across so far by a long way.

That was all in the Europa League, though - if memory serves me correctly.

[CosbehFox]

My advice to anyone on flights is to extend your stay. I've just saved about £150 by coming back on Friday. The extra night stay will be nowhere near that price.

route planner says 3 hours 45 minutes but they are never the most accurate of things. Its pretty much a straight road so you should be ok.

 

You flying back from Murcia? 10am flight back is horrendous

Should've known we'd get these. We always do!

 

I'm happy with it though. It's very hard, but it isn't impossible.

 

Might have to change my name

Got to do what u got to do i guess. Still get to drive a nice fiat 500 lady car hahahaha

[Crazy Kop Corner]

Are we holding a 20 year bus reunion?

 

Still one of the funniest things I've seen / heard at a game as us dishevelled bus lot were in one block and the fresh as a daisy beered up bunch to our left, who had flown sang the 'wheels on the bus go round and round all day long'.

 

We didn't know if to laugh or attack the p8ss taking bar stewards.

 

Great days with Marshall's goal still being in my top 6 celebrated goals of all time.

Was hoping for the other Madrid team, but maybe we can get revenge for our last european run. Will be tough and scruffy, but we have defied logic before... Exciting times!
