Best Place for a Stag to include a football game

ok another one bites the dust

The weekend would have to consist of a football match in euro zone or former eastern bloc country

We where either going to go to Brussels, Anderlecht or Munich, Bayern Munich

€154 to Munich as thats the preferred choice but stag thinks thats to much cheapo

Any other suggestions ??

Were off to Old Trafford for my stag in 3 weeks to watch United Vrs Chelsea. Just had confirmation of the match tickets. Only £60stg (through a contact - no a travel agent).

Yep, that's what I was going to suggest. Barca or Munich.

I think (note : think) it's pretty much impossible to get tickets for Barcelona matches.

I think it changes depending on how the team are doing and who they're playing against tbh.
Munich on the otherhand we went to the stadium on the morning of a Hertha Berlin match and had no problem at the ticket office. But they're doing well at the moment and are moved into their new stadium, so it'd be worth confirming.
To be honest, for the experience of Munichs new stadium alone I'd be tempted to go there - depending on when the trip is being planned (winters get pretty cold).

If he wants to spend more money then why not an olympiakos match or somewhere like that, Croatian or Greek league or maybe catch them for a Champions League match.

What about Hamburg? 2nd in the German league and the world-famour Reeperbahn for the nuaghty stuff.

barca tix are not too hard to come by once you're there, most of the tourist hotels have ticket allocations. i was in salou a few weeks ago and they were offering tix for €20, including your bus !!!
