Stayed at a place called Hotel Gea Di Vulcano just off the Via Nazionale booked through Booking.Com. Its within walking distance of the Termini but well away from any dives and on the right side of town. Its fairly central with all sights in walking distance and couldn't be faulted for cleanliness etc. Quite reasonable prices as well. Excellant Pizzaria on the corner of the hotel building. Book in advance for the Coliseum, available through the Rome Tourist Board to avoid the queues (sorry don't have the link). Don't miss the Pantheon, and call in at the El Greco Cafe at the bottom of the Spanish Steps in the street with all the expensive shops for a belting Cappuccino if you like that sort of thing. If you want to do the Vatican museum get there really early - we queued for well over an hour arriving about half an hour before it opened and it was November. I also managed to fit in a Roma game - they got stuffed 3-0 by Udinese. Their Ultras were not best pleased and set fire to their seats

I went last neet and it were bad - it made me laugh when all the little kids pretended not to be scared when it started thundering The worst weather ever seen at the Reebok was for a pre season friendly against Preston some years ago now. Never seen rain like it, twas a Monsoon I tell thee. Called off at (I think) at half time.

He drifts in and out of games too much for my liking

Some pics of the Ant Hill Mob's finest taking obscene liberties in Bayern's backyard. I know it's after the event and all that, sorry I couldn't get them on earlier. Undies as promised http://www.putfile.com/barnestoneworth/images/165362

1 minute 20 seconds in, that's Victor Meldrew's signal to say we're out of here and at the 4th time of asking we managed to avoid the robocops - shame you couldn't join us Satan.

Got to be Ricardo for me. For once the crowd played their part. T'Reebok was rocking at the final whistle.

It may have been mentioned before, but one of my abiding memories of the old place in the mid 70s was the crackly P A system belting out 'My World is a Football' and 'Here We Go Again.' Happy Days

Hmm I did exactly the same in that I only put he lead details on. I was told that it wouldn't be a problem at all
