Good point HARLOW! Anyone who's 5foot 2, mid 50s, has a receding hair line and answers to the name cxxt has a chance of a ticket!!!!!

Sounds like Paul Daniels. RIP PD

there's a facebook post by Arsenal Supporters Club Bulgaria detailing bars/things to do/where to go etc etc.

I'm gonna be out there from sunday onwards so gimme a shout if fancy meeting up.

I'd swerve the march and official pubs if I were you. It is Eastern Europe after all.

Are we using this thread as the match thread then?

We are shite, they are shite, the game will be massive pile of shite

Nah, fuck it. I hope we smash them by seven

[trustno10]

I'm guessing this is doubling up as the match thread.

Would like us to rest Ozil, Sanchez and Koscielny for this game. Not only should we be able to win without them, but who gives a shit if we don't. First or second in the group we are going out as soon as we play one of Barca, Bayern, Madrid, Atleti, Juve, Man City etc. Spuds at the weekend is far more important than this borefest.

Ludicrous long shot this - but if anyone fancies making a late decision to go to Sofia I have got three return flights booked on Ryanair from Stansted out on Tuesday morning 06.35 return Wednesday afternoon. I will be on the flights myself; but due to unforeseen circumstances my three buddies cannot travel. You will need to pay whatever Ryanair charges for name change plus something for the flight and I am open to reasonable offers.

Be quick though - I will need to check in for these either today (Sunday 30th) or tomorrow (Monday 31st) because I cannot make any name changes after check in; and to avoid being shafted with their £45 per passenger airport check-in fee.

Drop me a PM.

EDIT: Match tickets - there will be three match tickets available, I am collecting these in Sofia but they may have names and passport numbers on them already.

EDIT: 30/10 11:16 - one sold, only two left

[Ben Diesel]

Any bar or restaurant recommendations for Sofia anyone ?

I reckon I will be spending most, if not all, of Tuesday afternoon in here.

[Henry Norris 1913]

great support, fair play to those travelling gooners

[Ray C]

Play the kids for this one. Rest the best. We have more important game Sunday v white scum !!

Need to rest players for Spurs.

Sanchez, Bellerin, Ozil, LK, al deserve a break. In fact, I would actually leave the 4 of them at home rather than even naming them on the bench.

Ospina, Jenkinson, Mustafi, Gabriel, Gibbs, Elneny, Coquelin, Chamberalin, Walcott, Ramsey, Giroud.

Then against Spurs. Cech, Bellerin, LK, Mustafi, Monreal, Coquelin, Xhaka, Iwobi, Walcott, Ozil, Sanchez.

Would be the team I would start with except two Holding in for Gabriel who for me looks a decent young player and has looked far more assured than Gabriel.Xhaka in for Coquelin who will be rested after his sabbatical 3 game ban.
