Fitzhugh Fella Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Just waiting at my gate in Gatwick, flying to Copenhagen. See some of you there. SG Heading for the bars along the canal tonight in Copenhagen, if the weather's good it is usually very lively
Saint Garrett Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Heading for the bars along the canal tonight in Copenhagen, if the weather's good it is usually very lively Yeah my cousin lives here, think she's taking me for some drinks down by the river! Should be good !!
S4INT Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 I have ongoing confusion. My dad has two season tickets (I usually use the other one) and bought two tickets for this game off the back of that. So I have two tickets to collect on Thursday (for myself and another London Saint) - whose ID do I require, my own? my dad's?

melmacian_saint Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Bit of flight stalking, where is the team flying into? Also what airport did they use for Vitesse? Couldn't find a Southampton charter anywhere!

S4INT Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 When you say "use the other one", it has got your name on it, hasn't it? Nope, both have his name
hutch Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Please note that tickets will not be issued at the point of purchase and will instead need to be collected in Denmark by the qualifying Season Ticket holder on the day of the game upon production of photographic ID. It's on the OS
derry Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Nope, both have his name Ok if that's your name otherwise looks like you may have a problem.
Fcmfan Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 I'm flying into Billund from Stanstead (on the 7.30am flight) tomorrow before staying at Hotel Herning. Anyone have any idea of the quickest way to get to the ticket collection and then onto the hotel? Quickest is a taxi (about 9 quid i recken to go to town) but also City bus from messecenter Herning (3 min walk fro. Hotel - ask in reception) City bus is abou 3 pounds, but doesnt run so frequently, hovever bus terminal is 1 min from scandic hotel vant miss it if u do ask a local.
SO16_Saint Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Nope, both have his name Hope you find a good bar to watch the game

Am I right in thinking best option from Billund airport to herning is the train? Looks like it's one stop from give st to herning and takes around an hour?

Looks like it's one stop from give st to herning and takes around an hour? I Thinks its bus to Give then train or train bus from give to Herning. There is no direct bus or train from Billund airport to Herning. Taxi is VERY expensive for that distance, avoid that.
Batman Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Looks like possible trips to Rome or Lisbon then.
marc_saint Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 (edited) So these are the ten teams (and stadium capacities) that drop down from the Champions League into the Europa League. We just need to do the job tomorrow night now! Belgium Brugge 29472 (5% capacity 1473) Italy Lazio 72481 (5% capacity 3624) Albania Skënderbeu Korçë 12000 (5% capacity = 600) Switzerland Basel 37500 (5% capacity = 1875) Scotland Celtic 60411 (5% capacity = 3020) France Monaco 18523 (5% capacity = 926) Cyprus APOEL 22859 (5% capacity = 1142) Serbia Partizan 32710 (5% capacity = 1635) Austria Rapid Wien 50865 (5% capacity = 2543) Portugal Sporting Lisbon 50095 (5% capacity = 2504) Edited 26 August, 2015 by marc_saint

Looks like it's one stop from give st to herning and takes around an hour? No trains from Give due to engineering. You have to get to Brende.
marc_saint Posted 26 August, 2015 Posted 26 August, 2015 Very rough draw pots for Europa League. Will be several changes after Thursday's games as this pic shows how the seeding looks if the seeded teams all win tomorrow night. So as it is currently, we are in pot 4. But a 3 result swing of non-seeded teams who have a lower coefficient than us going through will put us into pot 3.

Whitey Grandad Posted 27 August, 2015 Posted 27 August, 2015 I'm flying into Billund from Stanstead (on the 7.30am flight) tomorrow before staying at Hotel Herning. Anyone have any idea of the quickest way to get to the ticket collection and then onto the hotel? Some hotels have bicycles for hire. Not much good if you arrive in town and haven't checked in yet.

Stu Man Do Posted 27 August, 2015 Posted 27 August, 2015 Imagine if it was drawn in the rows that it is listed there! Judging by our draws so far (highest unseeded team and a national champion CL drop out) you just know that if we do win through we'll get Dortmund, Monaco and Lazio! Nothing like doing things the hard way! Still let's concentrate on tonight and hopefully cheer a few people on this board up with a win!
DuncanRG Posted 27 August, 2015 Posted 27 August, 2015 Our group of death?..... Dortmund, Lazio, Monaco, Saints God, what a tour that would be though.

Shroppie Posted 27 August, 2015 Posted 27 August, 2015 Fairly quiet but good atmosphere on the strip now. Nice mix of fans, very low key policing. The IPA is superb but very strong. There will be no further sober posts from Shroppie tonight. :-) Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Whitey Grandad Posted 27 August, 2015 Posted 27 August, 2015 Empty seats in the away?? Yes, we tried to find out how many tickets couldn't be collected but no joy. It was open seating there tonight so there may have been some bunching. I was slightly to the left of the Saints fans as seen from the tele, behind the left - hand post of the goal. Unfortunately I could see the whole match clearly. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
positivepete Posted 27 August, 2015 Posted 27 August, 2015 Enjoyed the trips, if not the last two matches. Shame it all ended before the group stages in a reprise of Bucharest. RIP. Hope we do not have to wait another 12 years.
marc_saint Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Sat watching TV and the TV turned itself over to the Live draw on BT Europe as I had it set to record. Another kick in the teeth!

alpine_saint Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Napoli, Brugge, Legia. Last seasons SFc would have got through that LOL at Tottenham.
andysstuff Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Always fancied Brugge as an awayday. Ticket or not its a lot lovely city and easy to get to. Typical! Sent from my D6603 using Tapatalk
Foxstone Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Missed out on some great European nights there... very disappointing.
VectisSaint Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Didn't like the group destinations we would have ended up in anyway! Straws, clutching...... We would not have ended up in the group. If we had won last night we would have been in Pot 3 (we would have been 34th highest-ranked team). Midtjylland were in Pot 4 (46th ranked club). The draw would have been completely different. If you really want to think what might have been it would be better to use Augsburg fixtures as a guide as they ended up 34th ranked as a result of our demise, so that would have been Athletic Bilbao, AZ Alkmaar and Partizan Belgrade - that would have been interesting and 2nd place would have been well within our grasp. C'est la vie.
JRM Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Spurs and Liverpool will be pleased to only have one long trip each, i feel more gutted now seeing the draw would have loved to have seen us play some of those sides, had thought we were destined to play Atletic Bilbao. Irony is Spurs and Liverpool fans get so much European football they aren't that bothered about these.
Chez Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Napoli away...****. Once in a lifetime trip, that would have been. If the seeding and pot etc. would have been different if Saints rather than Midtjyllland had gone through I don't want to know about it thanks. We missed out on Napoli away and that's that. I might never get a chance like that again. Oh well, at least we have yet another fixture away at Sunderland just round the corner to make up for it. ****.
positivepete Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 What Naples and Bruges....what's not to like there. Trying to console myself, Bruges would have been good but Naples is a hole, but I am sure I would have stayed somewhere nice outside of there.
Batman Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Naples is insane. Dangerous place and utterly filthy the surrounding areas however, beautiful
trousers Posted 28 August, 2015 Posted 28 August, 2015 Good news.... Liverpool play the Russian team FC Rubin Kazanon on the Thursday before we play them at Anfield on Sunday 25th October.... Not so good news.... the Thursday game is at home too...
