Alternatively any spares would be greatly accepted
I'm travelling from Dublin too. (not your route)

If you are 100%, I have a couple/few spares.
Absolutely 100%, I think Sammy might confirm that. Out of interest M-50 what route are you taking? I took a notion last night and checked out that route! I was kinda thinking of making a mini holiday out of it. The only possible flaw in my plan is that my other half might not be impressed with me taking in 2 matches on our holidays, I might be forced to watch a show on the Sat night . I'll have to work on this over the weekend.

What's it got to do with her? Throw a burka on her and stick her in the back yard.

If my missus ever reads this forum she will staple my bollocks to that wall...

Cool. You got a ticket

I've yet to also finalise my travel arrangements (also contemplating a trip to Spain with the missus). My plans will made tomorrow, Sunday at the latest and I will be booking my flights then.

Sent you PM with flights details. I'll send you my mob # too.

Will post flights on here when I'm booked up - it's not rocket science though to work out!

Best bet is to get a cheap flight to Porto, hang around there, pre match drinks, look at the attractions and then get the train to Braga, train takes 37 mintues and tickets can be bought for 26 Euros Return or 13 Euros single, in Portugal tickets can be bought at the station or on the train.

The drinking is good, but aside from that....

I kno Roma did but I'm not sure about Milan!

Should be a cracking time for gooners going, hopefully a quality away day for the second round/quarter final for me to go to!

Roma went to reds for a very long time actually. As a red member the only ticket i couldn't get a ticket for away in Europe the last couple of years was AZ Alkmaar, i did get Barcelona through some help however.

I imagine the allocation for Braga won't be much so i worry for myself, however with 10 credits you shouldn't have a care in the world.

I did the sightseeing part in Porto earlier this year so i'm heading straight to Braga and spending the day there, not sure what the town has to offer however, nonetheless i'm looking forward to seeing us in this unique stadium.

I've never been to Braga but its known as the Rome of Portugal. From what I've read there are some beautiful sights of fountains, churches and ofcourse there is Parque Natural do Bom Jesus. Looking forward to the trip already
