Stockholm Tournament in July

Recommended Posts

Posted

Looking at accomodation in Stockholm right now.

There's the Langholmens Vandrarhem (Langholmsmuren 20), a former prison (!) on a little island in the city centre, with beds starting at £24 per night.

What's everybody else's progress?

Prussian, I'm checking cheap ways of doing Stockholm as we speak! Hostels would suffice for now, I haven't had a proper holiday since a nice little weekend break in Barcelona last February.

And weasel, no idea what the deal with public drinking or if cheap beer even exists in Sweden. As I understand it, it's a taxation issue rather than cost of living as Stockholm isn't much more expensive as a European capital than London or Paris generally speaking.

Yes I am doing my research. :)

I think it's less a worry about the price of the beer than the quality, expect no more than 3.5% for the local stuff - much like having sex in a canoe....

persoonally, whilst i'm excited at this, but severely pissed that we aren't doing the göteborg one, stockholm's a bit of a trek on the bus? DavieG, how's you left hand driving ;)

I've got flights for about £40. There seems to be plenty of options for places to stay for about £20-30 so I'll sort that out in time

Said on the moan in tonight that Mallorca probably won't be there now. Could be replaced by another Swedish team.

also, a bit weird that it finishes on a monday?

Yeah, I thought that. I get in at 9am on Friday and leave at 9pm on Monday so have the last 4 of the 7 days covered. I also figured that if things go tits up and Leicester pull out for any reason I've got a long weekend in somewhere new.

6 hours from Oslo is hardly a picnic and I'd not fancy it if that's what you were thinking.ohmy.gif

You can buy drinks from Systemboglets that are cheaper than the £5 quotes I have read here ....

We are playing on Tuesday 12 against Sirus FC, Friday 16 against Brescia and then Hammarby on Monday 19. Should be a top trip ...

May I ask where you got this info from please?

Delightful. If that's the case then I should get Brescia and Hammarby in. Keen.

As it stands, you can catch Djurgardens at home on Saturday in Stockholm. They play at the Olympic Stadium which is from the 1912 Olympics.

Brilliant. I might try and fit that in too.

fair enough - i'll see what the other oslo foxes are doing, maybe we can sort out a car full...

but i assume you'll want to be there?

unless the monday game is in the evening.

This is starting to get a bit tricky, the more i look at it i'm tempted to go to the brescia game on friday, a few absoluts, a bit of CHEAP shopping on saturday and a few more aboluts, and bus it home on the sunday...

Haraven, norfox et al. - any thoughts?

I'm not sure I'll see what the schedule is and how they're spread out. What are you thinking of doing , staying in Stockholm and going to all the games?

Would love to go to this and get a few days in Stockholm, but I've had to go to 4 away games on my own this season so I'm not sure what the chances of a trip to Stockholm are!
