[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

I went to the Reading festival in 1978, it didnt stop me from seeing us win at Spurs 4-1 on the Wednesday, watching England v New Zealand at the Oval on the Thursday, and popping out from the festival to see us lose 1-0 at Bristol City on the Saturday afternoon. You young uns want to get yourselves organised !

rapid is not that good. they are losing their only striker who is, and was,  able to score, nikica jelavic. the rangers are more than interested in buying him and if he's playing for rapid international once again, he won't be allowed to play international for the rangers. defence is real shite, midfield and strikers young and without any international experience. its going to be a walkover this year.

[The Situation]

There's no way we're losing to these retards again, revenge will be sweet (hopefully).

You have just joined and looking at your grammar I am suspicious that you may be a Rapid fan trying to lull us into a false sense of security.

Well theres no chance of that, have you seen how pessimistic half the people on this site are ?

[apercus]

does this really make sense? why should I try to lull you into a false sense of security? You don't know both rapid and villa, do you?  I do and I'm looking forward to see both games in Vienna and Birmingham and - I really enjoyed standing in the Holte End last year. To make it clear I'm not supporting rapid.

and no one here in vienna believes that there's a chance to beat villa again. on the pitch - most of them are just looking forward to make a noise in B'ham!

Welcome to H&V Apercus. Looking forward to you guiding us in Vienna. "False sense of security" comment by  A L in the air   is in jest

[PaulWinch again]

Balls! oh well let's make amends.

[eamonn]

So does this mean they came third or fourth in the Austrian league last season again? Surely we'll have learnt our lesson this time.

Can anyone remember whether the tickets for the away leg made it to 'booking history' or 'general sale' last year?

I'd check the relevant old thread but it appears to have been deleted.

Young?!  If only.

I drove back from Reading a day early for MON's second home game (was it Newcastle?) in 2006.  Bit pointless buying a weekend ticket and missing the Sunday but sometimes you have to make vital sacrifices.  The previous year I spent most of the weekend in the nearest pub, watching the 4th test at Trent Bridge!

Just booked my Easyjet flight from Gatwick to Vienna. Between my setting out for the Valencia game yesterday afternoon and getting home last night it had gone up £50, so don't leave it too late if you're using this route.

We're going from Gatwick too, flying on the 18th back on the 20th.

I'm flying out Wed 17.20 and back Fri 11.20. You?

Last year went to general sale,but the club will want a sample of your DNA.

We sold about 300, if you want a ticket you will get one regardless.
