Did anyone else notice the club website didn't even flag the selling arrangements up as part of its latest news? You had to actively keep checking yourself for info. I was waiting for it to come down from people without proof of travel for the Budapest game, next thing I go back and it's gone all the way to general and sold out! I got a ticket off a mate anyway but I've lost my fucking credit run now. Nob eds.

Having been in Bucharest with Rangers already this season, i can only say to everyone going to watch your back and stay safe.

 

The organisation is a disgrace, the facilities are 3rd world, the police and stewards are out to make it as difficult as they can for you, and whack as many as they can with batons, women included.

 

We were kept queuing for nearly 3 hours. 3000 going in through one turnstile, how no one was seriously injured ill never know. Allow loads of time for getting into the ground - many never got in until half time

 

the lighting inside the ground (stairwells toilets etc) is non existent, the concrete stairs have large chunks out of them (navigating them with no lighting was seriously dangerous) Oh! and no toilet paper either.

 

I kid you not, the catering facilities consisted of a pasting table with one guy selling crisps (one box of) and pouring drinks from a 2 litre plastic bottle of coke. this was all gone from about 15 minutes before kick off, so make sure you eat before you get there.

 

the stadium is uncovered (and it pissed down all night) and the stewards are wankers. they stuck a celtic flag on the fence in front of where we were, quite obviously to get a rise. An old man asked them to remove it, and he was decked for his troubles, this kicked off some minor scuffles.

 

on saying all that, they were also fined for their organisation and over zealous stewarding, so maybe they may behave. i wont be holding my breath on that though

 

Watch out for the pick pockets. Also expect to be offered sex by women who are pimping out their 13 year old daughters

 

Beer is cheap though, so not all bad i guess :whistle:

I pre-ordered my currency, and have only just realised that the cunts have given me Hungarian money by mistake. Fucking Steve Ogrisovic bastards.

 

Got me money back now, I'm gonna have to change it in the airport at a shit rate. But I've heard they take our money over there, can anyone confirm this??

TBH Mate, I'm not sure about the 24 hours thing, i was on the official flight and we left about midnight iirc.

 

Some decent bars around though, with decent prices, but a lot of the city centre bars were pricier, although not as pricey as UK 2/2.5 euros a beer iirc. Some bars under a euro though.

 

No idea about Clubs, plenty strip clubs, or bars that have Dancers on podium. Unfortuantely many of those had men dancing/stripping as well as women, so we left pretty sharpish.

 

Some shady areas if you stray, and many parts of the city look like a bomb site, but some nice areas as well, if architecture is your thing. Lot of grey dull communist buildings. Caecescu (sp) palce has to be seen to be believed its HUGE, but ugly as hell

Where are they based? Just so I know to stay away :whistle:

 

there is the rather imaginatively named Babes, which is on magheru blvd, or balescu blvd, or something similar sounding

 

not that i have been there, but i have heard that the orient club is a bit more interesting than Babes! apparently! allegedly! :whistle:

 

Leonardo's was well recommended, but cant vouch for it personally

 

TBH they are plentiful enough that you should never be too far from some adult entertainment.
