We went on a package deal so they were for us so i wasnt aware buses were organised for independent travellers. We were all frog marched into the stadium and some lads with large flags were told they couldn't bring their flags in.

 

The McDonalds was stormed by the Neo Nazi's and the cops were just useless. You could almost smell the corruption.

 

As has been said look out for one another and stay in groups.



Dont think buses were organised for independent travellers. We heard about the trouble so just got on a bus with a few lads that did a package deal

Myself and my friend went to Moscow in 2002 with 747 travel but were put in a hotel in a dodgy area in the middle of the red light district - not good for two girls to be there and especially in Moscow! Swore I'd never go back there again but it'll have to be done now! Loads of Irish lads were attacked and mugged over there. We got a police escort to the ground but once inside everything was fine. Definitely an organised bus to the ground sounds good instead of using public transport.

I just thought the reason Hornet wouldn't be attacked was because of his tact and diplomacy Wink

I'm pretty open to everywhere, although i've taken on board the various views on the last Russian trip. Can't see any reason why I won't make Andorra and Slovakia and i'll just see how the dates work out once fixtures are sorted for the others and go from there.

In regards to Bratislava and the people not being welcoming, my girlfriend went there in 2008 for a cheap trip to Vienna. Loved Vienna but shared the common view here that Bratislava was a kip. Also thought the people were very miserable and unwelcoming so don't think it's football related, just a general thing. Still, every intention of going and taking in Vienna as a base but intend to stay in Bratislava the night of the game to get the best of both worlds.
