UCL Last 16: Celtic v Juventus Chat

Decided to book a flight to Milan to go too the game.

Just going to leave it late as possible on matchday to get into Turin. Train only takes an hour and pubs will be shut in Turin anyway.

Managed to book 4 of us in leaving from Gatwick, 80 quid each leaving on the 3rd. coming back on the 7th.

 

It's the draw I wanted. Well pleased with this, we have a fighting chance of going through.

 

Juventus, prepare to be Wanyama'd.

 

1-0 Celtic at Paradise. Im I the only one tht thinks its an advantage to play the home game first?

 

£80? That's cheap as * it's up to well over £150 to go from Manchester.

Most people will be staying in Milan due to flight cost/Turin being notoriously hard to get to by plane without paying extortionate rates. Best option all round, but bring plenty of money cause Milan is expensive as *.

 

You mean "yous don't know what your on about, yous are arrogant, yous don't know anything - Celtic aren't a Catholic club, we're all protestants..."
that one you mean?

 

If the pubs are shut is there much point in going to Italy if you don't have a ticket?

 

My first reaction tae the draw was tae grimace but to be fare I wiz havin' a * at the time...on reflection after wiping my * and washing ma hons I think the draw's a cracker!
Juve are a real CL outfit a giant in the world of fitba but it's only two games,oor Bhoy's will give it everything let's hope it's enough...I'll tell ye one thing,win or lose I'm still gonnae party...


Better than playing in SFL Div3....C'mon the Hoops

 

Aye mate, no too bad.

Need to find out how I am getting to Gatwick from Glasgow now though.

And tickets for the game is going to be another hurdle especially if they are only giving us 2000.

 

Tickets for the away game will be a mad rush. That's why I've not booked up yet and may just try and go with the club for once. No intention of hanging about Milan all week then going to Turin to not sit in a pub and watch the game :smiley-laughing002:

 

I wouldn't have been able to afford flights if I left it until I got a ticket.

Just a chance we are taking, will do everything I can to get one.

And I am not gonna exactly feel hard done too partying in Milan all week!

 

Just got home from work. Delighted with the draw. Can definitely take them at Paradise.

 

Aye suppose it'd be a good break anyway but I would be more annoyed if I went over and couldn't get to the game that's all

 

I was a bit let down witht his draw for some reason.

I don't like Italian teams,it is going to be tough,hate being away in the 2nd leg.

 

Forget about that.

I'm not from Turin, but Turin is the most civilized between big italian cities....and it is not a case that Unity of Italy started from there.
By consequence, Juventus fans are the most correct.
We're not saints, and I don't agree with some chant or banner, but we have not a tradition of attack or anything similar.

Moreover, Celtic fans are very respected by all italian supporters.....being considered between the best in the world.

Take it easy, enjoy the challenge....and if you go to Turin, you'll simply discover a beautyful city

 

That's the one :icon_mrgreen:

 

Nah, i know the streets like the back of my hand!Seen The Italian Job about 5 times!

 

Thanks, but I went before in 2001 mate.

Juventus supporters were a disgrace. That is what I am basing my opinion on, as I am sure you will understand.

But I hope this time will be different mate.

Will you fill your stadium for this game do you think?

 

Lustig got his wish. He grew up supporting Juve.
