I can't believe you've just posted that? It's not a joking matter.
I find the idea vaguely amusing (not the idea of pickpocketing itself, obviously).
I would hope nobody would begin to take it seriously. Although I appreciate that doesn't necessarily come across in writing and I'm sorry I've clearly failed in this case.
I've deleted it now.

No problem, and I've deleted the quote in my post.

So why did my friends, who live locally, warn us every time, and others on this thread have agreed with me?

I'm not going, but would hate for any Albion fan to get robbed, so what harm is there in posting a warning on Nsc? You seem to be taking it personally.
I'm not taking it personally, just providing my insight as a local. I would say it is no worse or better than any other major European capital / tourist destination. A bit like all those who went to Marseille that were warned about marauding ultras, the reality is a probably somewhere in between.

I'll be waking up in Monastaraki Square, hopefully to a bit of sunshine, a day of eating gyros, drinking plenty of Mythos or Fix, watching The Albion play in The Europa League and then popping off to a Fat Boy Slim gig.

Thank you Albion - glass absolutley overflowing.
Enjoy! :drink:

Fair enough.

Careful with that overflowing glass now

Cheeky day in Athens getting boozed up, Fatboy slim nightclub appearance ... One day back and off to Miami , where il be seeing Fatboy less than a week later in the legendary space club.

10 day stay in the sun at 'art basel' Miami's primo party week then back the next Wednesday, Marseille at home on the Thursday followed by arsenal away then palace away in quick succession.

Dreamworld.

Couple of splendid eating establishments sourced and booked, hopefully the plane times are (reasonably) accurate.

Just need to buy a small after shave balm and all set.

I shall be at home, as ever. But at least I won't be drinking Heineken from Bargain Booze - it will be Mythos from Bargain Booze. And quite glad I don't have to drink French wine when watching football again.

One week to go - thought I'd have a quick look at the weather in Athens....

Looks decent (ish) 18/19 degrees on the Thursday.

It's been quite rainy* out there recently, hoping it's cleared by Thursday.


(*although not as wet as Amsterdam!)
