Sadly I'm 11 points short of of T1 so will be hoping there's a few tickets left for Wednesday. Assuming I can find a way to connect to t'internet of course :D
Wonder if it will be next to Rome's one printer, excited to find out

In Wednesday evening via some Harum scarum connection times via Milan. Back put the same route with the larks on Friday morning. Wish I had more time to be honest. Would have liked a full sightseeing day but have booked onto Sean's walking tour for Thursday day time ao hopefully cram some good bits in before the pepper spray and baton dance starts.

Hate to put you off, but the HOHO buses in Rome, from what I understand, go nowhere near anywhere exciting. I always do them myself but it seems Rome deosn't like transport. Same with the tram, goes nowhere near what we want. I'm staying near the Termini and will walk from there. I've listed -
Day 1
Colosseum
Campo de Fiori
Open Baladin
(bar)
Day 2
Trevi Fountain
Spanish Steps
Pantheon
Piazza Navona
Castel Sat’Angelo

Day 3 Metro to
The Vatican
Helps that I'm there all week and also have an 'extra day' now there's no ticket pickup.

I know you asked about a hotel for Thursday - are you sorted now?

Also, are you travelling alone?

(I'm not making advances here, but if a lone female NSCer was travelling I feel some duty to ensure things go well for you!)
yes, thank you. I am travelling alone, but I do travel a lot for work so I am used to it and go to a lot of away days on my own.

Because I am arriving late I have booked a hotel on the 6th at the airport so I can travel in the day to Termini station in the light. I have a hotel booked for the 7th 5 min walk from the station and the drop off point after the game. It‘s about a 25 min walk to the get the shuttle buses to the stadium.

I appreciate you caring, and I will probably bend the ear of some fellow Brighton fans who are willing to listen to me witter on.

Should be there Wednesday evening just before 7, I've allowed 3 hours to get from landing at Malpenza to get to Milan Centrale.

Long day travelling, drive to Stansted, flight to Milan, coach transfer, 3 1/2 hour train.

Lots of us knocking about around Termini by the sounds of it so we should be like shìt in a field round there!

Lots of walking for me too. Not planning on using any transport other than coach to the game.
