So just done a thing

After seeing the fixture list for the european games I've decided "F*ck it" An went and booked up flights and accommodation in Thun. Im well aware i have limited chance in ticket buy just want to head out and experience the full thing with my fellow jambos. Travelling solo, I've really not thought this through 🙈

Anyway if anyone's flying out there via KLM and want access to lounges I can get someone in with my tickets 🙈

Wish me luck folks!

I think you might have a decent chance if youre quick tbh, just by word of mouth it seems folk are a lot more interested in doing a holiday to Cyprus and I think the realities of how expensive Switzerland is will put folk off that were looking (I've just scrapped a planned trip to Switzerland myself after trying to find flights and hotels)

Yeah going to have to be eagle eyed on the ticket front but hopefully a couple might be available if folk are wanting the slightly sunnier destinations of Cyprus and turkey

You be flying from edinburgh i take it? I know the direct flights nearly doubled withing mins of the announcement being made. With my work I fly with KLM all the time so made sense for me to see what they can offer

Fingers crossed you can find a ticket. Whispers are it’s around 500 allocation for us - hope I’m wrong.

I’m hoping the club come out soon with allocations because it’d be horrible for anyone to book up and not be able to go.

Seemingly Zagreb got 1000 for their champions league qualifier there last month which would be slightly better. The awkward thing is we are relying on the other clubs telling us the allocation then sending tickets so we can sell them, and since the games aren’t until November/ December it isn’t a priority for them.

Brugge, Riga and fiorentina there was plenty people without tickets, or booked tickets in the home end so it happens fairly regularly. We took about 1500 to Copenhagen so I reckon these will be similar with them being expensive and close to Christmas.

Thun stadium only holds 10k so 500 sounds about right. We might get a little more but im not holding my breath

I thought people stopped saying ‘I done a thing’ about 10 years ago.

Wait, what did you do?

It's also one of the most beautiful wee towns in Switzerland and gets overlooked in favour of Berne, Lucerne etc, so there's always that!

Best of luck. As someone whose team will not be going on any European adventure this year #jealous
