Travelling to Milan (Atalanta)

Milan is great if you love art.
Like most places in Italy if you want to drink cafes are the norm.
I was in that boozer across from our entrance to the game.
Small and mobbed about 30 in and mixture of City and Atalanta.

Maybe the Italian police are really good at weeding out ultra left wingers?







Joking apart, How did you manage to not see the game?

My mates ankle was fucked, the cops fucked us about sending us here there and everywhere, we got involved in that crush, got out and found a steward about 25 minutes into the game. He refused to let us in the lift, we got about 3 times round the roundies and fucked it off as my mate was struggling. Argued to be let in the bottom tier, got nowhere at all so went back to the pub. I have a walking stick, nearly everyone was in and the police refused to let us through a gate and said you have to walk all the way round again. ****s.

I hate being treated like I am a hooligan, im a fucking spacker ffs.

Then it went more downhill, a long story, involving ambulances and showers, spiked drinks, Atalanta ultra's and a one armed hotel owner.

Pretty normal CL away

Navigli really comes alive at night ..some really good bars that serve food up until 1.30 am
3 or 4 sports bars .. the King Bar was excellent. Watched the Lazio game there and the Inter one on Tuesday

Fair enough mate, we no doubt went Navigli at the wrong time to make a fair judgement.

Had a couple of Erdinger beers whilst there so there was a decent beer to be had at the very least.

We were planning on going around navigli last night but a city game and then a gig on the Thursday wiped my missus out so we had a chilled one last night and went for a Chinese near the Duomo.

Might book on your flight next game sounds a riot.

If you go back to Milan and Bergamo again, I would recommend getting the cheap train ticket via Treviglio. It was a nice town with a number of ancient towers.

I know several Blues are underwhelmed with Milan but I thought it had more to offer than say, Turin. It did help to fill the time visits AC Milan’s football museum

I agree it has more to offer than Turin does. The duomo area was gorgeous to have a walk around at the night and we didn't have a bad meal whilst there.

It also wasn't anywhere near as pretentious or stuck up its own arse as we'd been told pre trip by a few friends that had been. Found nearly every Italian we chatted with to be very friendly and helpful when needed.

It didn't grab me like say Amsterdam or Berlin has but there are worse places about to visit.
 
Be interested to know if any blues were on the Easyjet flight that was supposed to leave at 2.35pm on Weds. We were delayed 3 hours due too one person being ejected off the flight. No idea why. Some blues gave up and some including me still made the journey. We made the match by half time.
 
Some moaning fuckers on this thread Milan’s a great City, a city away trip is what you make it, some are bit too obsessed about finding snide Irish bars in various European places
