It makes you laugh that we have to go on the designated bus to get to a game and at at our own expense, we get banned for a vape. Imagine overseas fans not to be able to march to the game here.

Good move by the Greeks to be honest, otherwise you're all on the same metro line

I see there is now a compulsory bus from the centre of Athens to the stadium now that must be paid for in addition to ticket from the club .

Bradford City. Got an assist after 5 mins of first match being played on the right wing where they'd never played in their life so that was a good start.
Blackburn Rovers at home tomorrow.

You can get a flight Tues-Fri from BHX with Aegean, £212.
Careful with wearing your colours out there, it can get quite tasty - to the extent that no away fans are allowed, at least in the Athens games.
I worked there for a bit and went to Olympiakos v Panathanikos a couple of years back (friend got me a ticket, used his tax payer id etc to get it), travelling from Athens to Piraeus, not a sign that there was a football match on until you reached the metro station for the game, at which point people unzipped jackets to reveal shirts, scarfs came out of pockets etc.
Stay safe everyone

Cheers Manuel - only one night, but hopefully I’ll have the Friday to look around a bit. I like that this comp throws up places that I’d probably never visit otherwise. And fair play to Brighton who took a decent amount to Marseille. Somewhere else I’d probably never visit unless we played out there.

There is an Athens based WHOer, he isn't active but did reply to a WHOie I sent him one time, so might be worth a shot. He said there is a boozer there where Irons sometimes meet up for games.

Simon - Good shout, a couple of days in Athens with a load of West Ham fans, hardly gonna be shit is it. I would rate your chances of getting a ticket pretty high, it's only a EL group game and isn't their stadium quite big? Never been to Athens also, meant to be a bit rough around the edges but with good nightlife, probably what you'd expect.

Game is 3 weeks today and still no ticket details released, they've known about it ages now, very West Ham. Heading out there either way but be handy knowing if I'm watching it in ground or a ropey irish bar in the city

I'd booked my hotel and then my youngest has got signed by an Academy so I have to be doing 90 mile round trip with him every Wednesday and Thursday evening so won't be going now. Bit gutted. Cancelled the hotel room.
I'll be watching on my phone sat in a car park in the dark now. Luxury lifestyle.

Booked flights and hotel. May not get a ticket, but it’s somewhere I’ve never been, so fuck it.

Athens is great but 3-4 days will be sufficient to see everything and have spare time.

It also has a basement sauna and hot tub you can use exclusively, and one of the rooms has it's own jacuzzi looking out to the Acropolis ruins

As the ground is out of the centre but near a station so anywhere in Athens will be ideal. I stayed in Psirri at Acropolis View apartments that has the smallest lift I have ever been in. Monastiraki Sq station is about 10 minutes walk and there are load of bars and restaurants around so you won't go thirsty or hungry.
