    Good wee jaunt out for the Celts before our European qualifier, Berlin looks a cracking city would like to go there one day.

    BTW Sevco were supposed to be opening their new stand but wisely Union Berlin have invited us instead for the friendly, good choice freunde :50:

    Fantastic city. Unfortunately the game comes a few days before our first CL qualifier. Will be a case of waiting to see who we draw before deciding if I can make/afford this game.

    celtic fans will be made extremely welcome by union, union is very much a peoples club and have always traditionally been the "anti-establishment" club here. their rivals were the government-backed club in east german times, so old union fans are certainly used to dodgy decisions from refs and the powers that be, with lapdogs in the media to cover it all up - sound familiar???

    the fans actually helped to build their own stadium a few years back, and create an amazing atmosphere at every home game. nice little 20,000 capacity thats always sold out in the 2nd bundesliga, decent side as well these days - would finish top 6 in SPL easy. bonus being you can buy beer for around 2.50 a pint inside and outside the stadium as well :)

    as for berlin, its a * amazing city, love it here and never coming back! no such thing as licensing laws or closing time, still pretty cheap if you come here for a couple of days, weather should be very nice as well in july.

    anyone need any advice on accommodation etc just fire me a pm.

    to say i was a little excited earlier today when i saw the game advertised on the tv on the underground train is putting it mildly :)
