wanderer Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Actually started having a little look, and says something when I can get to Vienna for about half the price as it would be to get to and back for Cardiff 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am talking traveling independently. Vienna I could get for under £50 return.... Cardiff its working out about £70 return to Bristol, and the train costs are even more ridiculous (granted cheap seats not on sale yet) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get through and play Austria I can't imagine more than 1000 travelling. I'm very tempted to take the punt and book travel to both. It doesn't appear too expensive currently 🤔 1000? have you ever been to a Scotland game before!? 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bzzzz Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Fingers crossed it'll be Austria, Wales is a shite away trip etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I was slightly off the mark with 1000 but i really don't see a massive travelling support and I'd bet there will be nowhere near over 5000. Between potential Covid travel issues, the risk of booking now and only a few days to arrange foreign travel when prices will rocket.....i can't see the normal numbers of our travelling support. Wales would be different but Austria? No chance. Not to mention folk will be keeping 2 weeks holidays for Qatar 😉 Edited December 9, 2021 by dezmondo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 We would take closer to 5k than 1k. Its Vienna,not the moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Austria is in full lock down just now (I am suppose to be spending a night in Vienna at the end of this month when traveling out to visit my in-laws, and we are probably going to have to change our plans to Bratislava) and that includes football, so fingers crossed things improve out there, unless you fancy going out there to watch the game from Bratislava.
