Eindhoven Wednesday and Thursday night for me, then a last hurrah in Amsterdam on the Friday night. I'm Billy no mates again so if I hear a lestah accent expect me to start talking to you, I'm not shy to buy a round either.

 

If we don't cack up the first leg, this has the potential to be one of the all time great nights for me -  getting into the semis of a euro competition beating PSV, wow.

 

 

2 of us doing the same. 

 

Planning on doing dordrecht v Fc Emmen on the way from eindhoven to Amsterdam on Friday

It's great watching teams from different countries you have no emotional connection with. You can actually enjoy the football with no stress.

 

We did 3 games in Denmark and 1 in France like that.

Agree. I've done Lazio, Galatasary, Maccabi Tel Aviv and Beitar Jerusalem as a rock up punter and had such a good time. Oh and Italy Ukraine in the 2006 world cup. Such a different experience and brilliant.

has anyone else tried to buy a ticket from a ticket site , bought one for 126 euros , purchase went through,  then they cancelled it and put it straight back on for 295 [ about 380 euros with there commission] 

and i ended up paying  a bit of commission

That sounds a bit naughty but I guess I'd expect nothing less from online ticket touts.

If you ever get the chance to go to see a league game at Borussia Dortmund go. It’s the best football experience I have had watching club football other then city if course 

[CosbehFox]

Italy tops Dortmund for me. There’s a level of disorganisation which makes it better. Been to see the Genoa derby and it’s utter madness

Agreed. The yellow wall is immense. Saw Dortmund away at Bremen as well which was fantastic for a cheap shitty European Ryanair weekend

Went to see Bochum play Freiburg with a lot of Union FS in 2016. Brilliant....

 

Atmosphere - tick

Old style Terraces - tick

Beer on the terraces - BIG Tick 

Bochum win - Tick 

Curried Bratwürst - Yummy Tick 

Man city 1-3 Leicester the next day at a 'lock in' provided by Bochum fans with food Laid on - Tick tick.

 

Overall I love going to games in Europe as a neutral, been Wisla Krakow aswell.

Biletwise is def. Not legit and genuine. Turkish website it seems and tickets offered don’t make any sense. The amount of tickets offered next to each other is def. Not even possible let alone the ‘categories’. 
 

if buying second hand would only advise viagogo (11 tickets left. Use vpn from UK)  and marktplaats(dutch but comes with some risk best to meet the seller if they up for it).

Hi guys, 

I'm still looking for a cheap way to get out to Eindhoven for this one. Is anyone driving out there and has a spare seat in the car? Obviously I'm happy to contribute towards the costs.

Anyone willing to take pity on a lone traveller?

[William Luk]

Heya folks, I get one more ticket in the home end. Please contact if you interest it xxxx

Horror stories from airports regarding waiting times for check in etc

 

Can't imagine travelling is going to be much fun with it being Easter

Feel sorry for anyone flying from Manchester for this.  Easyjet cancelling flights big time and scenes at Border Control chaotic due to lack of staff.  Let us hope it gets sorted for next week?

[Guest Lako42]

I'm on easy jet from Brum, getting a tad worried

I’m currently sat on an easyJet flight going to Glasgow (well when it finally gets the okay)
 

It took 45 minutes to get through security which was made a mockery when staff started calling out flights about to close gates and then pushing those people to the front of the queue. 
 

I’ve now been on the plane for 40 minutes after boarding waiting for the airport to give sign off on departing. Apparently short staffed in every department of the airport

Which airport is this? I feel like it should be Cardiff...but you never know.

Britain closed for business, holidays, Football trips and any other travel AGAIN.

Infrastructure, we're just rubbish at it.

Cutting corners cost wise at every opportunity to make the company or shareholders money and then underestimating or managing spikes in demand.

Carry On Britain
