Good work - you sorted flights yet mate?

[nobbylad]

Not yet, forgot to phone the travel company yesterday afternoon, they said they'd be putting more flights on but as I didn't have a ticket then, I didn't bother phoning back.

I'm going to check the Liverpool Echo, apparently people who didn't get a ticket are selling their flights

I'm in a good situ 'cos I'm promised the tickets at the agreed price and if I can't get a flight sorted next week, I just wont buy 'em.

You should be alright with flights - pints in Athens then!

Nice one. You'll finally get some ale off me then

[nobbylad]

Yes....but it'll be Greek ****e!

[Dhav]

The Greeks are as bent as the Turks.

One way or another, we'll all get in.

Yes....but it'll be Greek ****e!

Uncultured the lot of yers.

[anfieldanfield]

Uncultured the lot of yers.

Ha Ha

Tongue in cheek, obv.

Any news on tickets out there Dhavlos ? Do the tout prices show any signs of dropping now there's only 10 days until kick off ?

[Red_Polo]

Yes....but it'll be Greek ****e!

And probably piss warm as well.

Be good if we could find somewhere that sells ice, make a massive improv ice box, just keep topping it up with tinnies and ice.

I'm sure it's alright. The Greeks are not known for quality ale though to be fair! The souvlaki on the other hand...

Alright mate. People I've been speaking to out there are telling me tout prices are pretty steep. My mate's cousin in Athens has been trying to pick us up a couple of tickets over there without much luck.

Greeks are very opportunistic - if they think they can take a foreigner for a ride, rest assured they will do so. Depending on how many reds go out there looking for tickets, your best bet might be to try and get a tout to bite very close to kick off, if there's any tickets left by that stage.

Me and my mates only get into Athens a few hours before kick off, so ideally we need to sort it before we get out there. Anyway, we carry on looking.

Hope to meet up with you guys out there, although in my case it would probably have to be after the game.
