Champions League Group Stage

[aguero93:20]

Celtic announced ticket deal for the three games at 99 quid

I'll end up paying more than that for a decent seat at the Nou Camp :)

I've never been able to tell my missus how much I've paid for face value tickets at Barca. Middle tier near half way line was extortionate before the pound plummeted in value. But the view is amazing and I told myself it was 'once in a life time'. Now I justify it by briefly thinking back to all the barren years.

I hope they do. So someone with 2k points can't skip the queue and prevent me from getting a ticket.

more hassle than its worth IMO

You doing gladbach mick?

He is, although he's done fuck all about it apart from one text

 

[xgorton]

I don't get this. We don't 'always' get the group of death. The other year we were in a group with CSKA Moscow and Plzen for god's sake. If we can't get 9/10 points out of the games against Borussia and Celtic we deserve shooting!

It's pretty simple, if we win the league, we'll get an easier group, if we don't we only have ourselves to blame and should take on any opposition we're paired with. The only reason it keeps getting called the group of death is cause we're in it!

If we win the league we would probably get the runners up of the Spanish league in our group,Barca or Real.

Not really. Sevilla sold out last season on around or just above 12,000 I believe. I couldn't get a ticket, yet for both PSG and Madrid it went down to open sale on the former (granted there were other reasons) and the latter was around 8,000. Much better and fairer for everyone, if it's organised correctly.

did you have to queue for 2 hours in madrid? shit process caused a lot of a stress

 

[ultimateharold]

A minor inconvenience as it seems to have stopped them selling out with those with no intention of going buying up tickets for the points and passing them on to people.

I didn't in Paris, no. Because we actually planned what we were doing and didn't just pile down when loads had already gone in. Neither did my Dad in Madrid.

Haha waiting to see what spike comes up with or looks like going stansted to cologne 32 quid

 

[Tam]

are there trains back to Dusseldorf after the game?
stayed in Monchen last time but swithering for this one

Dusseldorf is a far better city and less than an hour away. Plus your match ticket will get you there and back, as well as any get you on any tram, bus or train in the region on match day. Had a great craic last time and booked same hotel in alt stadt

The upside is that even if we come second, we can't get Barcelona again in the last 16.

Can't see Leicester or Arsenal winning their groups although Spurs would seem to have a decent chance. But if they don't then we've got 5 chances of a winnable last 16 tie.

Hopefully the three of them finish second at best. Assuming we also finish second.

Is it wise to stay in Dusseldorf then? Didn't do this last time so booked flights to Dusseldorf last night from Manchester so looking for somewhere to stay now. Can we get back to Dusseldorf after the game?

Dusseldorf it is! Nice one mate!

 

[yeah whatever !!]

Fuck me, how small-time you all sound. Anyone remember we almost got to the final of this last year? You don't think the other teams will be shitting facing Pep and the boys? Get a grip.

Absolutely this.^^^^^

Even had a police escort from stadium to the train station, where a train was waiting for us to take us back.

 

[dawlish dave]

Booked acc for all 3 home games. Q when will tickets go on sale for the first home tie on Sept 13th.

 

[afro2007]

Tough but not impossible to top the log, Pep indeed needs the support of everyone to inspire him more to deliver something special.
