Is it not Nations League playoff winners will play second in the groups? Yeah they will be in the hat along with the runners up in the groups. I can’t remember if it’s seeded/unseeded depending who gets the home semi final? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamntg Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 3 hours ago, Barry89 said: For Portugal it's 2hr50mins on the train between Lisbon and Porto and 8 of their last 11 competitive matches have been in either of them with most being Lisbon. 2 of the remaining 3 were against Luxembourg where presumably they expected a smaller crowd. They have spread their 4 friendlies across the country in March and June so I'd think they'll be back to Lisbon and Porto for the Nations League more than likely. Well, I’ve booked flights to Malaga on the Thursday and we‘ll figure how we’re getting where we’re going once we know where that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Skipping Portugal, but booked into Dubrovnik direct from Edinburgh with Jet2 and home from Ljubljana (via Zurich) with time in between on chance game not in Zagreb). Very little up for Poland at the moment, but thinking into Gdansk, and booked a flight back from Krakow with Easyjet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BryanBlessed Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I'm sort of finding it hard to get excited about the NL this time round as we have the Euros coming up and I know some of the top teams treat the matches as friendlies. It felt different before. Maybe that will change after the Euros but I'd rather get to a 1/4 or 1/2 final (we can but dream) in the Euros than win the NL.

At best maybe Split, but a Dubrovnik - Zagreb internal flight costs around £35, so just thought "why not?"

saintsparky Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Earthquake damage to stadium in Zagreb, so reduced capacity.. Hopefully the game is in Split. Bigger stadium and looks a cracking place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan cake Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Booked all 3 today, Saturday/Sunday/Monday games so very time off work required . Hopefully we don’t get dicked around too much and the venues are Lisbon, Warsaw and Zagreb 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Jim Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 All three countries that I'd love to go back to, but have constraints, so hoping to make Portugal this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potted Heid Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Booked Lisbon. Only ever seen Gibraltar in Faro. Will be great to see a match in any of the big Porto or Lisbon stadiums. I don't mind countries that move their games around different venues, but there should be rules to avoid last minute announcements like the Spanish did last year.

wanderer Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Poland booked. Easyjet out to Berlin on the Saturday morning, then train to Poznan (a Ukrainian band I like are playing Poznan that night as part of a tour, so great little add on to the trip) and then on to the venue the next day, before down to Krakow for Easyjet flight home on the Thursday.

Unlikely Krakow, as Chorow seems their stadium of choice outside of Warsaw in recent years, with Wroclaw and Gdansk probably the main other contenders (I would like Wroclaw as its a great place....

N4Footsoldier Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Anyone else finding it strange the lack of Ryanair flights from Glasgow or Edinburgh to Poland in November? Usually there's an absolute slew of Poland flights from both airports to quite a few major Polish cities. Wonder if the sales schedule hasn't quite started yet for those dates. Currently the only flights showing are mostly the higher end airlines like KLM or BA for over £100 one way. Last time we went to Poland for the Ukraine game there were several options more in the region of £30-40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
