    Just a note for anyone who'd like to boost their loyalty point totals for next years cup finals...:D

    We will get up to 7000 tickets for this game, yes that's right, 7000.

    It's only £20 for a ticket, and you'll get 5 LPs for the game.

    Only complications are:

    The game may be moved to the Sunday if we progress past Slaia then PSV or Helsingborgs in the Uefa Cup.

    Flights are a bit on the pricy side to Manchester, will cost €130+ depending on the day.

    That is the weekend of the FA Cup semis, both games are on at Wembley so Old Trafford will be empty that weekend (Utd are due to travel to Boro in the league)

    I'm going if anyone's interested.

    Supposed to be a great boozer Pat, away fans only and only a stones throw from the ground?

    I'd be defo interested in heading to that Ronan. Only thing is because of the eufa cup I'd be reluctant to book flights until i knew for sure the date of the game. I think i'm going to apply anyway

    Yeah it's a good spot alright. As you say away fans only, welcoming staff, good food and drink and lots of room. Right behind the away end.

    Yeah, basically train from Manchester to Blackburn. I might try make a weekend of it, go Saturday and come back Sunday night. If we make the Uefa QF I might even look at travelling out of Manchester to wherever we get, then staying the weekend for the Blackburn game.
