Celtic vs KR Reykjavik - UCL Qualifier, Tuesday 22nd July @ 7:45pm

I've seen Tescos with more parking spaces than the whole of Edinburgh.

Also bad days when you go for a pie and get hit with a venison burger or a pulled pork roll :smiley-laughing002:

 

We missed the first 3 goals :smiley-laughing002: we were actually still in the motor at all 3 goals listening on the radio. M8 was brutal, there were thousands coming in when we were going in at about 20 past 8 and must have been thousands more not arrived yet cause the traffic.

Alan Stubbs was just getting in when we were going in 35-40 minutes into the game and I imagine he stays in Edinburgh fucksake

 

Fantastic night.

No Pukki, no party.

 

Traffic was fine on the way back...

Went up early and got a space right next to the stadium. Looks like I dodged a bullet.

 

Yeah, going back was fine. Just got on the first bus and it was up the road like a flash.

 

Murrayfield's some stadium. * all over that shambles, Hampden.

 

What way did yous go, we went on costorphine road were jammed in it about 1 hour to go 4 mile, not even joking it was actually 1 hour.

 

Really enjoyed that. Beautiful night, great crowd and an excellent stadium. Left 5 minutes early, got a tram in 2 minutes to Haymarket, short wait for a Glasgow train but back in town for 11pm. Not too shabby at all.

 

I thought the stewards and police were very laid back tonight as well, I was sitting just beside the gb and no problems at all. Don't have a clue what that guy was thinking walking onto the pitch though.

Very impressive stadium inside and out.

 

I live just outside Edinburgh and i never got home till * 11:30, the * transport and planning was horrific for this. Keep these games in Celtic park always, *. All the busses were diverted, went to the stop on the diverted road and nout came for 40 minutes! ended up jumping in a taxi to princess street before geting a bus there home. The absolute chaos trying to get something hot to eat was hilarious aswell, think half the stadium where coming to these 3 stalls.

 

What guy? the guy from the GB area who was took away or the guy and wee boy that ran on at the 4th goal

 

Out on to Gorgie Road and straight out by Napier University, off the roundabout onto the M8. Hardly any traffic at all.

 

We came in that way and it was absolute murder so we went out the other way :smiley-laughing002: we'd have probably been quicker coming in the other way and going out that way then, near enough 4 hours in the motor to see less than an hour of football played.

 

Well the 3 of them :smiley-laughing002:

Aye, I remember the guy walked out in front of the gb, don't really know what he was up to, I seen the steward took him out- don't know if he was removed from the stadium.

 

Few lads beside me threw a Celtic scarf at one of the stewards (obviously not one of us) and were singing, "We know you're a Tim, we know you're a Tim, put on the scarf, we know you're a Tim!" Took it in good spirits.

 

I say easily 45 -50k

 

Had a brilliant night at the game. Got a train from inverkeithing into haymarket, walked to murrayfield as the queue for the tram at haymarket was horrific. Left with ten minutes to go and got a tram no probs back to haymarket.

Can't wait for the next qualifier at Hampden, as a Fifer it is logistically a lot easier for me to get to murrayfield than it is to get to parkhead.

 

I heard on the radio it was 36,000 :smiley-laughing002: was easily more than that though, we at the game thought there was 45-50,000 as well. They must have took the attandance half an hour into the game when about 10,000 were still to come in.

 

A lot of fans never got there till half time

 

Attendance was definitely nearer 50k than 40k imo.
