Should we get a good result, (a first in Sofia) it's probably best that everyone lie low on the Saturday night, so that they don't attract "attention" from pised-off home fans. Eastern Europeans are not known for taking defeat very well.

Heres hoping for an away win!!!

I know a good few lads who got really cheap packages to Bari at the very last min, am thinkin of tryin this option as there isnt a chance of me booking anything else this late. Probably a long shot for this game but if any of ye hear of packages going cheap let me know!!!

I got mine last week , changed 300 euro and got 550 Lev. Ill have bank card for back up if need but at 3 lev a drinks should be ok.
The rate was 1.83 Lev to �1 in credit union
In the banks it was was 1.75.
Took credit union week to get Lev in, ring your local credit union and order it today , if your not in credit union just ring and quote a family or friend name that is a member in your local credit union , thats what we did

Good info, never thought of trying the CU , the one in newry were offering something like 2.08 to the pound, travel agents were only offering 1.99 to the pound. CU in Newry can also get them in 24hrs also.

Ha ha no , all together and all for one. Kip or no Kip , it has a beer garden so im happy with that !! sun , beer, beer garden and good laugh,

We maybe should look into asking sveta hotel to organise a mini bus for those arriving at 3am on the Friday morning. There are 11 of us, so if anyone else intereted in this let me know and ill email sveta and see can they accomodate us. Be handy just to get on bus straight to hotel??
