Good area to congregate in the city centre - take a note of alcohol prices and how much they will be increased for the few days we are there.

Can you gain access to the stadium? Check the view from behind the goal particularly the lower tie. I was there 19 years ago and think it was a poor view and a long way from the pitch.

In Italy?????? :confused:

Actually apart from football, women, wine, food, weather and history Italy has very little to offer visitors.

Seconded. Looking to get a midnight train out of Bari after the game, so would be good to know how feasible that is.

We got people to the train station on our first bus. It was a close thing because the police were directing the traffic out of the stadium and there was a big hold up:rolleyes: They caught the midnight (ish) train.

I am not quite sure - I would guess 2 hours, but then I don't like walking ;) - the stadium is outside the city - it took about 25 mins by bus.
