They’ve definitely counted the Maccabi tickets as my mate purchased them but didn’t go and is in the ballot.

There’s no way of knowing this yet, we only find out when or if the code gets sent on Monday


No that’s not correct as you couldn’t register interest unless you had minimum 7. My mate purchased all 7 home games but didn’t physically go to Maccabi. I’ve been able to link his account to my application and put us all in for the ballot. I tried to do the same for another lad who’d only been to five and it rejected his. Therefore they must be counting the Maccabi game even if you didn’t use your ticket. .

God i hope the fans dont get as much aggro as the fenebache  game. It was a nightmare  for the villa lads that flew out fir that game
I went out on the Monday and spent 5 days in Istanbul and saw no hint of any bother. In fact had a cracking week and can't wait to go back.

Would Demitri be referring to the coaches hours before ko and the long lock in afterwards? I’m only going on what I heard, you may know in greater detail if you were there.

Seems that the North stand redevelopment is the reason for no big screen in the stadium for the final. Shame, but understandable.

Will likely watch it in Hickory’s in Wall Heath if there are any Villains in the Kingswinford area who can’t go and are looking for a venue to watch it.

I live 5 minutes walk away but will be in Turkey. I've never watched a match in there it always strick me as an American Football and Rugby sort of place.

I assume he was, but part of that was keeping the European fans in the European side of Turkey. The match takes part in that side this time. The Police will probably be twats because they are used to having twatty fans with some of the rivalries over there but I suspect if we won, our fans won't mind being kept in for several hours after the FT.

Ditto. There was no “aggro” at all. In fact, it destroyed a few myths. The locals were friendly, our hotel manager was a ST holder there and got us a Fenerbahce key ring before we left. Can’t wait to go back once we’ve got over the stress of actually getting the tickets!

Yeah the people were lovely, it was just a pain in the arse getting to and from the ground. If we get a Turkish club again, I'll swerve the coaches as plenty were let in that got taxis.

It’s not really a place for watching football but it’s good for big games if you want a more family vibe, plenty screens and I have family who work there so can ensure the sounds on etc. They’ll be a dozen or so of us young and old so the slighter calmer atmosphere suits us.

They surely can't do a holdback for that many people? I would guess that the traditional losers leave first would be sufficient.

Someone said they were already sold out. Not sure if correct.

Stop trying to be a man of the people Dave. We all know you've got a private jet.
