any tips for accomodation?
Yeah Gatwick and that is disappointing news!!Gatwick? I've just been informed no complimentary booze on shorthaul BA anymore
No sure about away matches, but looking at last season's group table the magic number is 11.
11 points and we move on!
Away allocation at psv 1500??! It's true?
Sorry i should have said loyalty points, id love an away game at barca, but only have 74 points
He means loyalty points. How many are needed to stand a chance of getting away tickets
This is what it’s all about.
As a fan that endured the whole of the 90s I remember how excited I was when we qualified for European football again. Playing the likes of Besiktas felt magical, whilst the pipe dream of CL football played out like an unreachable rainbow in the distance.
The game against the Sheik Mansour team where Crouch scored the winner was by far and away the most nervous I’ve ever been when watching a game. It felt like a war for the keys to the promised land. Love him or loathe him, Redknapp (with a little help from King, Bale, VDV, Modric, and the rest) did us proud with those famous wins against the two Milans.
Last season we all felt that moment when we held Madrid in Spain, and smashed them at Wembley. The comeback against Juve was an exhibition in pure determination and pride. Smashing the eventual winners and going toe for toe with the Italian champions seemed like the awkwardly manufactured ‘glory’ I’d play out on FIFA in my 20s. Even when Juve won, their reaction was one of a team that knew they had faced a massive test, with passionate roars where you might have expected a workmanlike series of gestures for a professional job well done.
Now we’re going up against Barcelona, the greatest team of the modern era, and probably the greatest player of all time...and we’re their biggest rival in the group...justifiably.
The 90s seem a long way away. Soak it in lads and lasses. After so many years of false dawns and the sleeping giant, Goliath is wide awake and heading back into battle on the biggest stage in club football. Madrid, Juve, Barca...no need to dream anymore. They’ve all come true.

Barca booked
What's the allocation for Barca usually?
No past matches to compare..
Was seeing what they usually give away teams in Europe.
Sorry mate, misread it, I thought you said loyalty points.. it’s been a long day..
A lot of people are going to be applying for tickets, whether they intend going or not, aren't they!
Psst - I need two

Someone mentioned earlier that the UEFA rules specify a 5% minimum, so nearer 5000 if true.
No problem mate
