I just read that the average temperature high for march is 11 degrees. The low is 4 degrees! I'd assumed it was gonna be lot bloody warmer than that.

You don't have to go through Ukraine and their front line with Russia. Google offers a route through Turkey and Georgia that only adds two hours to the trip. It even avoids any shithousery at the Azerbaijan-Armenia border.

That route looks awesome, would love to do that trip. That northern part of Turkey looked stunning when I flew over it a couple of weeks back, all mountains and loads of snow

Occasionally poster Tallulah closes in on his 100th country to watch football in and is holding out for Qarabag. He has promised to sort it out for me to go if that's who we get, so yes please.

It really does. Obviously I posted it as a joke but now I'm looking at it with a kind of longing. I've already got the whole week booked off work...

But I imagine the negotiations with car hire companies about insurance would be tricky. And no amount of Pro Plus would get me back in time for the Forest match on Sunday.

There's a Grand Tour episode where Clarkson, May and Hammond do the Georgia - Azerbaijan leg of that route, from the Black Sea to Baku on the Caspian, and it looked rather marvellous.

When I look around online it's about 1000 quid for a return. Am I being stupid or is there a cheaper place/way to buy plane tickets?

Set VPN to Turkey and book via Turkish Airlines. £500 ish

I just went onto skyscanner.net now, London to Baku via Istanbul, out on the 6th, back on the 8th, Turkish airlines, £330 return.

Aren't Skyscammer a bit, well, creative with thier pricing ? ie, the price you see is about half what you actually pay because they scrape the lowest prices which are almost never available.

Spent far too long looking at travel to Baku, who has the best flight details without hours of hanging around?
Hope we get West Ham in the Quarter Finals 🙏

Will it be POTG though?

Can't see it selling out :shrug:
Watched bits and pieces of their game on the Europa League goals show on TNT3.

Won’t be any room in their end. Every seat / place taken and chants controlled by a mental looking Capo in a blue and white gimp mask. (Note to self, email PBOBE with new product range idea).

We’ll sell out ours too I reckon. Lots will be put off by cost and logistics. Lots will want to say “I was there”.

Rather an enjoyable thread for a match we have 1 in 8 chance of landing.
