KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Got tickets to atletico game

I got tickets for the match on thursday but im coming from ireland this will be my first game but i need some help on cheep flights or ferrie and a hotel can any of ye help?

You can try talking to some of the lads on Irishkop.com,sound bunch of lads on there always heading over,don't know how they can afford it.

one of the cheapest hotels is Formula 1 - right opposite Albert Dock and prices start around £35 i think.

you have left it a bit late though I think - hotels get booked up fairly quickly i believe.

k thanks

only got told today

you'll be stung for flights this late. Ryanair fly out at 5 I think and VERY early next morning.

Bus Eireann do trips direct to anfield, but that means travelling early on Thursday.

There's a B&B / hostel near the bus station I stayed in while back. It does the job for mid week

Let me do some digging, names of the B&B etc and I'll get back shortly

i am sure the ground will be buzzing

Right lad - for a first timer I would not recommend traveling by boat for now unless you are going on a package tour. Bus eireann only do anfield trips on a saturday. The boat trip is on Wednesday evening and arrive in Liverpool at 4am, and travel home on Friday evening at 10 to be back in Dublin on Saturday!!! Feck that lad

Ryanair - 450 EURO return - F*CK THAT!!

Aer Lingus
Best option for flights are to fly into Mankchester at 6.30 on Thursday morning and fly out at 11am on Friday - Total is €219 this is the cheapest and safest. There is a train station in the Mank airport. Unfortunately you do not travel near Old Toilet so you cannot p*ss out the window. This train will bring you directly into Lime street in Liverpool. From there you can pretty much walk everywhere, but being your first time taxi's are right outside

Doing it this way you'll be in Liverpool really early, it will be a long day, but being your first time the excitement will keep you awake and buzzing. Trains are about an hour.

The Hostel is the YHA near Albert Dock.

http://www.yha.org.uk/find-accommodation/north-west-cities/hostels/liverpool/index.aspx

They start from £16 per adult.

It will be late at night coming from Anfield after the game so if you do not know your way, there will be buses outside anfield at around 11PM to bring you back to the city - from there taxi's should be found to bring you back to the hostel.

Leave the hostel in good time to get to Lime street train station to bring you to Mankchester airport. Time yoru trains the previous day. If I were you I would head for a train at about 7 - 8.

If you need more info about buses and trains let me know and I'll send you the links but they can be found if search them on the web.

It may seem steep but over the years when you attend many games you will find ways to make your trip cheaper and safer.

Have a good one

Theres a lad on irishkop looking for people to fill an 8 seater from manchester to liverpool for £7 sterling e/w,not sure of the times.

Thanks lads im looking into them.
