Champions League 2018/2019 (Shaktar Donetsk, Lyon, Hoffenheim)

[Tbilisi]

£52.50 for the three home games is very decent. Also good to see alcohol is now allowed in the stadium. Just need the club to reintroduce the ticket pick up for aways now to make sure tickets go to the people who are actually there and I’ll be more than happy.

I know what you are saying but the ticket pick up thing just wastes so much time of your trip.

Is that right though? I know we had an early kick off in Russia once, but Germany is only an hour ahead?

UEFA wanted to have two games in the same evening, therefore early and late kick offs like the Europa League

Champions league has changed kick off times this year to 6pm and 8pm so they can show more games live on tv, the same as what they do now in Europa league.

I’d have it for any game with a small allocation.

I’ve said this before on here but, if done right, it’s no problem whatsoever. Day trippers can be given theirs on the plane, the rest can pick up at a central hotel or outside the stadium. I’ve done it for over a decade following England and it never takes more than a few minutes. It often lets you find a few bars en route that otherwise you may not have come across. The fact that City made a complete balls up at Celtic shouldn’t deter them from trying to get it right from now on.

Paris was not a barrel of laughs either

Heidelberg is whats on everybodys lips

Heidelberg is about 30-40min by train away from the ground. Beautiful City, about 30000 students and a fantastic old town with many bars. As the 3rd October is a bank holiday in Germany it should be fun after the match. We’ll stay at the Ibis next to the main station.

What happens when it's a home game?? Chaos!

Home game tickets. I am in the CL scheme. If people purchase all 3 games at the same time in the same seat you get a discount. If you are in the scheme is this automatic?

As far as I can see, there is no discount for being in CL scheme compared with the bundle. My seats in CL scheme cost the same as if buying the 3 match bundle not in the scheme. Only difference being that it looks like you have to pay up front for the bundle, whereas in the scheme it's taken out on a match by match basis.

I am going to take my 'no interest in football' wife to the Hoffenheim game and make it a 3 or 4 day city break - any recommendations on nearby towns / places to stay that would make for a good city break - obviously not too far from the stadium
