Ryanair put an additional flight on direct to Madrid on the Friday which I booked, it's €700 so a chunk of change but we've likely got free accom through friends living there which helps a lot.

I came up with the notion or renting a camper van for the two nights if the accom didn't come though. There is a site which is the equivalent of Airbnb for campers so locals can make money off their personal campers.
Was coming in at €120 a day so way cheaper than the hotels, you can park close to the action and it's a novelty. Anyone looking for accom maybe look in to that?

This sounds unreal, neither of us drive but we know a few over there who might park it up for us, what's the name of this site?

That’s the only night that matters surely.

Have you a budget in mind for a ticket out of curiosity? I saw tickets on a 3rd party site the other day for over €4K with a face value of €60, madness. 

Not too bothered about tickets, will certainly not be paying over a few hundred for them so unless there is a miracle I won't be going to the match, neither a Liverpool or Spurs fan so it could be worse!

The 3 week break definitely suits Spurs. They were looking tired the last few weeks and struggled in the league. 
Hopefully have Kane and Winks back even if it’s just options on the bench.

Liverpool were on fire the last few weeks and if the game was this weekend you could see Liverpool winning by 2/3 goals.

I’d still have them as favourites but it should be a closer contest now.

The White Cafu, a lad on my 11s team is going over but isn't too hopeful on the ticket front. 

If you hear of a location in the city to watch the game on a big screen, post it up

"Supporters without tickets

There will be NO live screening of the match in the Fan Zones or Festival areas. Supporters without tickets will not be short of options to watch the game live though as Madrid is a city that loves bars and loves football and there will be plenty of places to watch the game live."

Plenty of other information about fanzones in that link but looks like there will be no big outdoor screening.

Looks like Kane will make the squad for the final.

He’s not played since the 1/4 final which seems a long time ago now. It would be great to have him on the bench.

Winks is also hopeful so could have a full squad to choose from.

Quite a bit has popped up over the past week, Other fans who booked with free cancellation cancelling it I presume. Managed to get a 4 star hotel 10 mins from the city centre for €140 each from Thursday to Monday by checking booking every hour or so in work, so definitely worth still looking if anyone has something expensive booked with free cancellation.

€350 for a room in a hotel less than 10 minutes walk from the stadium, and a four star hotel at that, for Saturday night.

There have clearly been a lot of cancellations. There are loads of hotel rooms now available.



You can also book hotel rooms for the 2020 final in Istanbul right now for €20 LOL

Oops!

Just seen TWC's post, above.

Bloody ridiculous that they don't have big screens at the fanzones, to keep fans without tickets from both clubs from going out towards the stadium anyway.

1. I'm not intending in visiting one myself (I was hoping that they might draw off some of the crowds from wherever I end up);
2. I don't have a bed in Madrid, wet or dry. Wink

1 fair point - one I have used myself when I come to think of it 

2 being bored this morning I checked booking..com and prices were certainly affordable
