From my assessment

 

The ground is approx 5km out of town

 

As to how far the hotels are away, I think that's a secret but mines slap bang in the centre where one can stagger home without the need of a taxi, if you think I'm posting the name of it on here you have another thing coming, our boys are all UNION officials

 

Ha

 

Say that in Serbian then

I hazard a crazy bet that if folk stick together afterwards, leave in a big mob, then it'll kick off, then plod will round you up, then take you to the city on buses.

The question of how Bolton fans get back to the centre concerns me.If it's going to be like the walk back to the station after the cup tie at Burnley,or Millwall i'd like to be prepared.

 

Or more likely try to get on a club bus back to the airport.I doubt that organising a taxi to pick folk up outside the ground after the match is possible.

 

My assumption is that those of us with wooden horses will ride pass the homos un-noticed

2.How will the Bolton fans get from the ground to the hotels after the match.Will it be a walk,bus ,tram ?

That was a question that I wanted to ask you too. Not just how do you plan to leave, but how do you plan to get to the stadium too?

 

In any case, don't even think about walking to the ground like in Skopje, or getting a cab to the stadium. All of you who are not coming with the official trips should organize something so you all come together with buses escorted by the police.

 

Bayern fans came with 3 buses to the ground. The buses were escorted with police. They arrived 30 minutes before the gates were opened for the other fans. The whole street and a small part next to the stadium was blocked by the high numbered special police while the Bayern fans were taken from their buses to their seats in the stadium.

After the match they were kept inside the stadium for more then an hour, so all the fans leave the stadium and the area around the stadium.

 

I know that a lot of you will come independently, but you definitely should think about how will you get to and leave the stadium. Maybe you can organize and hire a bus that will take you to the ground before the match together with the others who will come with the official trip and then after the match the same bus takes you to the hotel (escorted by the police)

It just sounds like an early morning Warburtons Bread delivery in Higher/Lower Broughton!

Belgrade is not Skopje!!!

This is not practical as we are all staying in different hotels in different parts of the town. We are told to stay in our hotels and not to go out and so congregating to get a coach would make us a target, would it not?

I am going but frankly if it is not safe as you state, as I have said before, I do wonder why you are allowed to host a UEFA match.

Right, I've bene reading some of the posts and this is how I see it:

I'm sick to f?cking death of this "do not provoke them" attitude. I shall go to Belgrade, as is my right. I shall walk along the streets of Belgrade, as is my right. I shall go to the match, as is my right.

If these bigoted ignoramous' see this as provocation, frankly there's f?ck all any of us can do about it. But not go because I feel intimidated, they can get to f?ck!

If this place is as Barbaric as it appears, as has been stated before, it should not be played there but at a civilised neutral ground.

Sorry Jumbo, but these folk, if all I read is true, are absolute cockends who do not deserve to breathe the same air as normal humans.

Flight booked, rant over!

 

Would you walk in to Millwalls main boozer in the 80's and in your broad northern accent shout a round in? Don't forget it's Life On Mars time while we are in Belgrade.

Well, I suppose at least you'll be sartorially elegant then.

Either way, I wasn't suggesting I'd make myself at home & large it, merely pointing out that to meet en mass is not advised, so surely getting a coach is not either. Looks like we can't win over there. Let's hope the team, at least, are treated with respect and win where it matters.

Didn't people make a big fuss about how rough it would be in Istanbul ?

 

In a word, no. Although if enough people keep asking that question, it may become perceived as the truth.

 

Plenty people sh?t out, however, I'd worked over there and knew the dangers i.e. don't go insulting their country and it's reet.
