Pretty pricy but brother coming from the US for it and dad coming from italia, couldn’t be arsed doing planes trains automobiles What’s the waiting time in Schiphol with that? Last few times I have booked the risky option with 40/50 minutes between landing and taking off again. Any delay at all with the first flight and you need a miracle to make the connection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10menwent2mow Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Hibs to be 1-0 on Villa after the 1st leg and get a Dundee Utd v Alkmaar esque thrashing in the 2nd leg. Ach, who am I kidding, they're getting scudded by 10 over 2 legs against Luzern 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d31 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Any word on tv coverage for this Thursday and next? Hearts too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Looks like I will be in the home end. Boy in work is a Luzern fan, was talking to him about the game yesterday(As well as Servette v Rangers) and now a couple of the other folk we work with are wanting to go to it. Seems to be a fair bit of interest in general in this one, compared the the usual for FCL in Europe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with the fact I’ll be supporting Hibs on the night mind you, just that there’s a bit of a rivalry between Luzern and Aarau, so I have no choice but to want Luzern to take a pumping anyway. The away section there is spot on. The rail seating is exactly what you want for a good away day. Edited August 8, 2023 by Ross. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ultras scene here can be pretty wild. Basel and FC Zürich in particular have bad reputations for violence, and they tend not to care who gets hurt in the process. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parttimesupporter Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Both Edinburgh teams being drawn at home means a fixture clash. I read that would be resolved today. Hibs website says "we know that the first leg will take place at home on Thursday 24 August". However, the article seems to be dated yesterday - UEFA Conference League Play-Off Draw Confirmed - Hibernian FC Does anyone know what the outcome is? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UEFA Europa Conference League play-off round draw | UEFA Europa Conference League | UEFA.com So, I'm only going by what Hearts had - there was a chance that if Crusaders beat Rosenborg, they'd clash with Larne. So if that had happened, they'd have moved the fixture, I think to a Tuesday (?) and then that would have had a consequent knock-on to Hearts' league fixture against the Kilmarnock. So, they (UEFA) left the decision until the resolution of Crusaders vs Rosenborg. However it might be different in different rounds.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to both clubs they have a lot of work related to the current round, but if they have been told of the final dates it should only take a few minutes to pop something onto their websites. Maybe UEFA are running behind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The away section there is spot on. The rail seating is exactly what you want for a good away day. Are the Ultras still in B2 and B3 They were fantastic in both games and for years Perth was covered in FCL stickers In those days i did some pitch side photography for Saints socials and in the second leg the UEFA delegate gave us instructions not to take any photographs of the ultras groups due to issues they had had in Switzerland where some local police had used a photographers position to identify banned fans, so as a group they had a deep distrust for photographers. 3 days after the game i got a message via the club asking for a picture from the game they were in the background off as they wanted to use it in their 2015 Ultras calendar, i could have taken so many more shots for them if i had known. How many tickets are you giving the Swiss for the second leg, I am sure from memory they filled the red and yellow sections of the main stand, the only away support of any significance we got in those run of European night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hibee_Hibernian Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 That’s the first batch of away tickets sold out. Didn’t think they’d go so quickly. Think we’re looking like taking 1100/1200 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
