Steaua Bucharest away

[The9]

I've also just remembered that having been overcharged for our tickets (£20 for the away end and about £2 to get in for home fans), we got a refund as dictated by UEFA at some point in the following year as well.

What a trip this was the night out in Bucharest was mental no sleep at all, the sights of the shanty homes that were along side the road to the ground people living in shelters made out of corrogated iron & plastic with the weather they have was a eye opener.

 

I remember the police being very heavey handed getting us into the ground hours before kick & then the rain I have never been so wet at football there ground was falling to bits.

 

The Bucharest fans were amazing very very mental great turn out by the Saints fantastic atmosphere fantastic trip loved it

I remember the open air bar in the middle of town where a large bottle of Becks was about 40p !!!

All the locals were stood outside the bar watching the mad English getting p*ssed up. They were sending their kids in to try and pickpocket the ones who were drunk enough not to notice !

The walk back from the ground trying to find a cab was a nightmare. The road we were on had the pavements dug up with no barriers round. Some of the trenches were about 6 foot deep.

Happy days. A truly great trip with so many great memories.
