It was much cheaper when we did the Europa League trips to Germany and Denmark. In those days you could get lots of cheap fllights (£12 to Denmark!) and hotels. Before our currency collapsed the pound was worth 2.5 Euros so prices have more than doubled for UK residents travelling abroad. I have cut my trips abroad hugely.Especially with us now being in Europe - how do people even afford it - it's basically the equivalent of going on 6/7 holidays a year!
The pound was 1.4/1.5 euros in the good times of 2007, and Denmark was not so bad when the £ dropped against the Euro in 2008 as the it held its value better against the Krone. By the time we played in Europe in 2008/09 the £ had nose dived closer to 1.1.It was much cheaper when we did the Europa League trips to Germany and Denmark.

I can remember Denmark being a lot cheaper than anyone had said before we went. I was expecting the beer to be very expensive but at that time, outside the tourist areas of Copenhagen, it was reasonably priced. Fllight and airport taxes also seem to have gone up since then (at least relative to the cost of flights).The pound was 1.4/1.5 euros in the good times of 2007, and Denmark was not so bad when the £ dropped against the Euro in 2008 as the it held its value better against the Krone.

That’s Kippax. Unaware what happened to him but he was about as hardcore as they came.Think the Swindon lads name is Paul, he's been going everywhere for years.
If kippax is the same guy I'm thinking, I've not seen him for a while but know he went everywhere. He lived in Norwich but was born in the kippax street.
