February 16, 200818 yr We depart at 13.15 from Liverpool on Wednesday, can't f?ckin wait we get to Madrid at 9am Wednesday, from all accounts it looks like Puerto del Sol is the place to be, also close by Gran Via for more bars and chewing places, I think a lot of us are doing the Real Madrid stadium tour Wednesday afternoon
February 16, 200818 yr I went to the Bernabeu (with England) a ouple of years ago, unfortunately I was carried out on a stretcher at half time, i was that pist I collapsed and Police and paramedics carried me out, I didn't even know the score until the day after
February 16, 200818 yr We are off Wednesday afternoon from Heathrow - arrive about 5.30pm ANYONE ELSE GOING WITH BA THEN? Where is the best place to head for in Madrid - Sol Square? I'm sure we'll all go to Sol, but my guide book says: "Madrid's nightlife surrounds the Plaza de Santa Ana, with literally hundreds of bars" Which sounds like my/our kind of place
February 18, 200818 yr Sol was place of choice for Aberdeen fans. Check out http://www.afc-chat.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=11087 Lots of horror stories there, keep passports and wallets away from from thieving gypo's fingers

February 18, 200818 yr casa de campo for 'ahem' night time entertainment itk just joined the website guys so go easy on me....ill be travelling with wanderersways tours from manchester on wednesday morning..my first trip wuth you guys hope it will be a memorabil one for the right reasons and look forward to meeting a few of you..
February 19, 200818 yr 1) Santa Ana is the best bet... lots of bars in & around the square. Locals use them so not rip off prices. 2) Plaza Mayor... Okay, traffic free square, but very touristy, with prices to match & more geared towards eating than drinking. Definitely worth a visit though. 3) Sol... very busy with traffic & people, not very good for lots of drinking, but very good for the pick-pockets. Aberdeen only congregated there because they didn't know any better. All 3 squares are within walking distance of each other so you can easily check them all out. Worth spending an hour at Mayor, 15 min's. at Sol & the rest of the time at Ana. Enjoy!

Not bad advice there Ziggy we never tried Santa Ana - but the Plaza Mayor on the day of the game was fantastico. Anyone who spent the afternoon in those dogshite rip off Oirish bars missed a treat............Mayor was the place to be on match day, it was quality PS - All the stuff on here about sol square being a possible meeting place was a bit misleading, there's not one fooking bar on there (just a few crappy ones in the sidestreets off it)

Anyone see the guys on the accordion and the crazy dancer!? Mayor was the "square" which has now become defined as a must for Bolton's Euro excursions Sol - didn't get it, few decent bars on the side streets, but basically just a busy traffic island

We marked its cards on our walking tour on Wednesday afternoon and spent a good few hours there on Thursday. Plenty of good Bolton lads in there.
