Just setting off, see you all in Amsterdam.......

We'll be there this time tomorrow Now just to get today out of the way

A day on the ale then all night watching the ashes, hope they have beds in the bar

I saw a figure recently of just over 1000, thought more myself but it was an official figure apparently.

Still no news on extra ticket allocation? I know a few who haven't got tickets and the clubs silence doesn't help matters. They'll still travel as you'll almost always get in, but having a large number of people without tickets isn't good from a policing point of view.

Flying Wednesday 6am from Liverpool, leathered by dinner

I know someone who has just come back and says count on prices for beer between 4.5 and 8 euros even in the less lively parts of town.

Why do we have the constant scare mongering on almost every page of this thread? If you want it you'll find it but FFS stop trying to put the fear of God in to people. Anyone who visited the Sofia website before our game out there would have seen hundreds of swastika tattooed nutters, but not an ounce of trouble, they were the perfect hosts. It'll be a great trip and safe also.

The more clubs enter the race the more money we get for him. Could go a long way to financing another signing come Jan.

You meet the strangest people watching football

Genius

Newcastle took less than 200 to Palermo by all accounts. Our support away in Europe has been nothing short of fantastic so far. [/img]

I remember going on the coach to Crystal Palace once and that was long enough. The free trip to Grimsby was all well and good but I felt like I'd lost the will to live on arrival, the trip back was worse. The coach to Holland is great for the less experienced traveler, but personally I’d rather have hot knitting needles inserted in to both eyes

Just be careful as you can guarantee it'll depend on minimum numbers booking or it won't run. With Holland being very accessible most fans will be making alternative arrangements for travel. I think the boat from Hull is a similar price to that and will definitely run.

Lets face it, anyone who thinks Lancashire United is a good idea is a complete and utter nugget of the highest order. Anyone for bringing back hanging?

Saw The Rifles at Preston last Monday, even the lead singer looked like Weller! good stuff though. Lets hope we're celebrating a win and getting out of dodge alive

I think the time could be right for Dunn to return but clearly his fitness is a real worry. If his desire isn't there then he's in real trouble because he lost his home town club once, he should be motivated enough not to make the same mistake again. It should be pointed out though that he's not had a decent run of good games since our promotion season many moons ago. Pay as you play and a very attractive transfer fee to boot.

Thanks you two, all booked up now.

I've mentioned this before but on the Friday and Saturday nights 'London Calling' is going on at Paradiso in Amsterdam. Tickets are avaialable from Ticketmaster 15 euros, think we'll be going Friday. Vrijdag 24 november: Little Man Tate, The Rifles, Milburn, Boy Kill Boy, The Young Knives, Klaxons en Fortune Drive. Zaterdag 25 november: The Pigeon Detectives , Fields, The Maccabees, Guillemots, Bromheads Jacket, Jamie-T, The Automatic, Mumm-ra, The Oxfam Glamour Models en Lotus Lullaby.

Just been on the website but nothing available. Plenty of accomodation in Amsterdam but its always good to be with your fellow supporters. We'll find something.

Struggling with accomodation, all the mentioned hotels are booked up We can always sleep on someones floor, its been done before.

Booked our flights lsat night when extremely intoxicated so could be going anywhere...... Liverpool to Amsterdam, come back Saturday as I hear a festival is taking place Friday night with some decent bands on.

You know what i mean working in the bloody town also SG
