Champions League - PSG

[purpletrousers]

Youth game is at BMH so not sure what the access to those games are like for general public.

The Bayern youth game @BMH tix were available on our website £5, sold out before the day of the game. No idea where the Bruges kids game is, thought it would be same as 1st team away.

I didn't realise Olney was talking about Bruges and thought it was the next Euro game at home to Bologna. There is a small stadium on the back pitch at BMH but can't see it holding more then several hundred seats tops.

I believe the kids play in the same fixtures home and away as the main team.

I’m half-tempted to go to the youth game in the afternoon, given the impossibility of getting a ticket to the match proper. Presumably that’ll be fairly easy to get a ticket for.

Just for info, NXT (Bruges youth team) play 25 Km’s from Bruges,

Cheers.

Yep gutted. Had naively got some hope up!

Sorry to hear that. Any plan to go and sit with Brugge fans?

I do have an offer (TBC) of a likely home tkt next to the away section, not a great fan of that and also wanted it on my history. No way would I go all that way to sit in a bar, but as someone else from Luton doing it I would have a travel budy. Needs some careful childcare negotiations too.

So now all sorted 50 euro tkt next to the villa fans. (thank you to the Belgian Brother who is aware of the demand but says Bruges fans not so keen to give up their Fan ID).

I had a £30 return coach from London prebooked, but death by coach (15hrs there and back for 6.5hrs there was a bit painful). So those nectar points that have been sitting there for years are converted to a Eurostar out that morning (cost me an extra 50p !), to accompany a fellow Midlands Ex-pat now in Beds on both legs.

Annoying not to be with the Villa fans, but not sure i'll be able to travel for Leipzig so at least one CL 'away'...

Can't afford to get to Bologna home as well, but there you go Mr Heck.

I believe villa are South Stand 421 & 422. I’ll be sitting on my hands in 423.

When's the Bologna thread starting ?
And Fulham thread.
Fulham first then ?

[Drummond]

I don't know, when?

[coreyfeldman]

Maybe both together?

Bolognacthread will start straight after the Fulham match.

[cdbearsfan]

Maybe both together?

I like this idea.
