Great city but small stadium. 19,000. Will be very hard to get a ticket for most fans.Prague please! Awesome city, decent time of year to visit, winnable tie (all of them are but know what I mean).
Tons of culture. Stunning cathedral and art galleries. Da Vinci's Last Supper mural etc. Main station is glorious. But also has plenty of poverty and a few no-go areas. As with all sets of football fans, the Milan teams have a small minority of real horrors but most are friendly. The San Siro is quite something. And big enough for most fans to be confident of getting a ticket. It’s also being bulldozed in the next year or two so would be great to see Brighton there while it still stands.Been to lots of Italy but never Milan, anyone been there with tips as to what to see?
Not sure it's really a fair comparison between holiday/work travel and 4000 football fans on tour. I've been lucky enough to travel to plenty 'on and off' the beaten path places across the world and it's been great reading all the positive views and experiences from people who've been to Baku. I'm now fully sold on it, travelling on this Euro tour with our lot so far has been a joy – and any new experience is a great one. So..yeah my original post I regret... was meant more as an off-the-cuff geographical observation that a scare. Lesson learnt, apologies for the misinterpretation. (We will get Qarabağ now won't we haha).It’s usually from people who are most unlikely to go, having never been anywhere outside of the Costa de Sol on holiday before.

Toulouse is a great City. Nice cassoulet for Friday lunch to mop up the booze and make a weekend of it…AC Milan is the obvious glamour tie
Toulouse might be a good balance of beatable and good trip?

I still think it was harsh that he did a bit of bird for his idle threat towards BellottiAlthough you’re cutting it dangerously fine with Hamburg or Freiburg. You could get an onward flight from BXL to any number of places I suppose . This is all a bit Simon Calder, sorry.
I can’t remember us playing Marseille last yearThere is nothing in the Europa League rules that says we can’t play Marseille.
It happened in a tie last year.
Once went there for a stag do with @Yes Chef who may have been vegetarian at the time (thankfully no longer). One of the nights we went to a restaurant called L'Abattoir, which as the name suggests was very heavy on the meat and offal. With nothing on the menu for vegetarians, @Yes Chef had to explain to the waiter and ask for a salad. Of course, this turned up with a mahoosive slab of bacon on the top.I was there in the summer. Great city, great wine, great food. I'd say I had the best salad ever there. Duck gizzards, duck ham and foie gras. There may have been lettuce.
23rd Feb. When the 8 play off winners join usI'm very confused! So the runners up draw has already taken place? when is our draw?
