The offical Athens final build up thread

[tsb]

Fingers crossed for tonight. I do think it'll be Liv v Man U in the final though - touch of destiny about it. After two defeats this season, we owe them one!

Unfortunately I think you're right. Doesn't stop me cheering on dad's army tonight though.

The mancs will learn a valuable lesson Tonight - "There's No substitute for experience"


But Then Milan will learn a lesson on the 23rd - "Lightning does strike twice"

... that counts for ten!

Yes as long as you have a ticket. Will be expensive but not as expensive as Lonsdales were for Istanbul

Hopefully they will annouce details soon so I can know how muich we're going to be ripped off

[bazza76]

what are the chances of picking up a match ticket at the final. Im guessing they will be harder to get if Man U get there.

The best thing for everything and everyone is Milan to make the final. If the Mancs get there then they will be on the scrounge for tickets just as much as we are. If Milan get thru then 3/4 ground will be ours again

That would be the best on all fronts.

I have asked my German friend about neutral tickets. I will get an answer on Friday.

He said that he can get tickets for sure if Milan get to the final but then I would need to sit among the Milan supporters. I don't know if I could do that after what happened in Istanbul.

If you have second thoughts about that, I will gladly do it for you

anyone checked the cheapest way to Athens from London? Hearing some awful prices. Also those in the know i.e. DesertScouser, what's the best way to go via ther places...

[Los Rojos]

if we play meeeeelan we take a roa dtrip across europe, arranged tonight, four of ius in a car, ticket or n o ticket.

Same here Shaggy. 6 of us are going to shell out on a camper van and drive there if we play Milan. Only 3 will be going though if we play the scum.

I was able to find reasonably priced flights last night from Oslo.
It was about 250 pounds roundtrip. 23-26th may

Maybe you can go via Oslo or Copenhagen.

Try the SAS website, or ebookers.com

By hook or by crook, even if it means begging on Bold Street, I'm going to Athens.

By the way, slightly pointless, but UEFA said that the winner of our semi-final would be the 'away' team in Athens meaning that, whoever wins tonight, we'll be in our away kit (either the white or yellow one, probably white) which I think will be a first for us in a European final.

U can drive to Greece it will take about 3 days

Drive to South of Italy, 1400 miles will take 28 hours (avg 50mph) non stop driving

Ferry to west coast of greece - 8 hours

Drive across greece - 4 hours
