    Worst bit was getting out of the stadium after the game. I swear they waited til everyone in Milan had gone to bed before they let us out.

    That didn't stop a total stranger giving me a lift from the metro station to my hotel though, Can't really see that happening London.

    How long did they keep us? Felt about 45-hour, and can still hear that bloody music they were playing now <doh>

    I still remember the guy who jumped the fence and made a run for it through a home exit... don't think he got too far and we got let out about 5 minutes later <laugh>

    You're mental getting in a car with a stranger in Milan <yikes> Like you say not gonna happen in London either.

    I was fumbling with my map all alone in the dark, wondering if I'd even got out at the right station, when a car pulled up and a woman asked "You are lost? where are you going?" When I told her the name of the street my hotel was in, she said "Is far. I take you". Wasn't gonna argue with that. All the people at the hotel were really friendly too when I got there, and they weren't all Inter fans happy because we lost.

    To be fair mate I generally found all the Italian people I met really friendly, I'd read quite a bit of negative stuff before going but my experience was much different.

    Quite a few less than that now I'd say. These will be gone tomorrow.

    My advice to people buying this morning would be to not mess around trying to pick a seat, just select best available and get it done!

    Good luck!

    In 2003 I pad an even larger sum for my ticket at Cardiff and it included corporate prawn munching in a hotel across the road before and after he gme. The paperwork clearly stated no colours to be worn.

    I looked through all the paperwork and it didn't say anywhere that you couldn't take your team shirt in a bag and change in to it in the toilets.... so that's what I did :)

    And mine was worn as a vest under the whistle at Wembley and went on display in Superman style as soon as I found a toilet! Great minds FLT, great minds.

    In fairness there probably aren't much more than 663 fans who travel to the away games that either haven't attended enough home matches or aren't season ticket holders.

    Yeah, if I had a ticket to sell he wouldn't exactly be top of my list. Amazing how far rudeness gets you...

    I didn't refresh and I'm in a 15 minute queue :emoticon-0138-think

    I have three away tickets so I can get one later but the friend I'm trying to get my tickets with doesn't - it's now or never for him!

    Got on the official site at half 8 when it closed then waited and didn't refresh, at 9 the site automatically updated and I went straight through. If anyones trying for the away tickets at noon this is definitely the way to do it!
