I can't comment, but I think you have to factor in the short notice too, they may simply not have the aircraft available, and the demand from City fans may not justify it, when many will book their own flights right away.

Short notice? They've had since mid-may to prepare for this. They knew we were going to play a qualifier around this time. It's piss poor from an 'official travel partner'.

...Not having a go at you btw. Just riles me how shortsighted people involved in our club are!
 
Exactly

All the hassle on recent euro aways with people not receiving their letters/emails in time.
Most will be travelling on Monday, so a really tight schedule here.
Come on, hurry up and announce the criteria!,
That's because the majority of people running our club aren't proper City fans. They're university graduates who can probably count the number of games they've been to on one hand.
 
Here we go:

Tickets £11.50. Passport collection in Bucharest and the new usual rules apply.

City is going to train on Rapid s stadium. A pretty old one, kind of abandoned, with a nasty pitch. Is going to be demolished next year. Anyway, we shouldn't have problems in scoring 2-3 goals against steaua.

What are the Steua fans thinking about this draw? Are they confident? Are they happy with the draw?

I'm always interested to know how other countries perceive City. I'd like to think they see us as a David vs Goliath club who've come from very little to tear down the established clubs... but in most western european countries I think we're viewed as a 'spoilt' club.

Yes, we are still playing there, but the pitch was very good until 2-3years ago, when the money problem started. Now it s kind of abandoned, a new stadium will rise instead of it in a couple of years.

Everyone in Romania knew that they wouldn't be able to qualify, no matter the opponent. So they are happy that they will be eliminated by the biggest team in the pot. steaua is just a shadow of it's own past. We should be able to score at least 2 goals in Bucharest.
