I'm always jealous of the teams in the European Qualifiers. So many random, interesting away trip possibilities. Imagine supporting Haverfordwest and getting to go to the Faroe Islands. Brilliant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we got in the europa league I couldn't believe that some of our games weren't sold out by other saints fans. I went to Holland twice, Italy and Prague because I predicted (accurately) that we weren't going to get there again any time soon. Watching us play around Europe was miles better than seeing us against United or Everton for the 100th time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing how lucky we were and being fortunate to be able to afford the trip(s) & annual leave, I done the lot, both seasons. Isreal you can kind of excuse, but i'm pretty sure, if memory serves me right, we didn't even sell out 500 tickets in a fairly accessible place in Denmark.

From Bucharest on I went to all European games apart from the one in Israel as could only afford 2 of the 3 at the time. As you say there's no guarantee it will happen again so must make the most of it. We sold loads for Milan, I thought Prague was officially sold out but there were some spare seats around. Don't remember how many we sold for Arnhem? Would love nothing more than supporting Saints abroad again. One game there is far more interesting than the league treadmill.
