No not the Dutch but how a former England and Twente Enschede coach says it.

Anyone know if Villa fans without tickets are meeting up in Amsterdam to watch the game in a bar?

I expect there will be but I have no idea where, probably best to find out where the fans are congregating pre-match.  An Irish bar is likely.  It does say that you won't be able to watch it in any of the bars in Alkmaar.

Get the distinct impression they don't want anyone wandering around Alkmaar as with their lot there's the potential for trouble. So much for travel broadening the mind, its seems like Alkmaar plod aren't taking any chances.

We're flying Sarajevo to Frankfurt and Frankfurt to Manchester on the Saturday at roughly 10am. We get back about 2 in the afternoon.

Might be worth seeing if that flight runs on the Friday. Issue you night have is there are only 2 trains a day and one is 7am ish, so a taxi would be needed. This is with Lufthansa.



Bosnian woman I know has said bus is better from Sarajevo to Mostar. 2h30 and a dozen or so buses through the day. I have a printed timetable from her if you need more info.

Just wanted to remove any hint of casual xenophobia, with hint of brollyman ;)

Anyone using Easyjet from Luton tomorrow and return on Friday are welcome to a free lift in my vehicle. Leaving Brum about midday.

Appreciated, but the train is a bit quicker and will get us up into Mostar nice and early- plus it seems to meander via rivers and mountains, so it should look pretty special in December.

A friend at the gym has just been there and she says it's an amazing place. Not sure about jumping off the bridge in December mind.

Good wishes to all travelling and attending in the Netherlands.I can imagine it's exciting, if not a bit scary, and hopefully there is no untoward behaviour by the AZ fans and policing and security are present.My concern for any away game, be it UK or overseas, is the security and policing presence, and travelling football fans are respected.So everyone stay safe and enjoy!
Up The Villa!
