Round of 32 draw

[Darth Toffeeman]

He's injured at the minute ,not sure how long he's out for. besiktas not playing at there own ground due to works so they are playing at the Olympic stadium (attaturk) . Turkish football is in a hole at the minute, but their fans are lively, wifes family all besiktas so I will being wearing the black & white for that.

My wife isn't a fan, but we will also be wearing Besiktas colours when they play Liverpool

or fly to Zurich or Geneva and 1 hour on the train
Simples

Just booked Luton Zurich, out on Thurday back on Friday afternoon, £133 but prices going up all over the place, doubt you will get that flight for less than £100 by now !

is there any chance our game won't be shown live on TV?, I can see BT & ITV going for the Celtic, RS & Spurs games before ours for live tv coverage

 

[ste d' indica]

Excellent, rewarded for winning the group there. RS punished for crapping out of the Champions League, don't agree with it but at least they've not been given an easy route.

Tough on Celtic and Spurs.

What are the trains like in Switzerland? Train from Geneva is looking my option. What prices/times will trains be? Hopefully as easy and cheap as Woflsburg.

It's £13 single from Basel to Berne, which isn't TOO bad, not great, but takes just under an hour according to their website.

swiss trains run like clockwork
Usually 2 an hour to/from major cities

example
Geneva Airport to Bern is 2 hours
Bern to Wankdorf is a further 2 minutes

They are not playing every game in ataturk also play in various cities ( last week was in konya ) anyway last time they played against reds it was 8-0 and sure that wherever they play it will be fullhouse.

Everton wankdorf badly by Young Boys and get a nasty Bern.

i'm smiling here, just imagining the doom and gloom at RAWK as they're looking at flights and hotels and the prospect of a moody couple of days in Istanbul and a tricky draw against decent opponents

I'm finding it difficult to use that trains site. It keep's saying I need to select a date range and it doesn't cover the date of the game. Is it too far in advance?

Shouldn't be a problem, works for me getting train from Zurich Airport to Bern, I am assuming kick off is 7 pm their time 8pm here, hope so as train gets into Bern at 5.30
