Albufeira is a kip. We rented a boat there last year to go on a fishing trip and ended up doing drug running over and back from Africa.

Voted for Cardiff but would have voted for Gelsenkirchen if the option had been there.  As others have said, basically an ugly industrial dump of a city.  It's no Munich or Cologne, that's for sure.

I wasn't there for when we actually played there but stopped over on the way to Tbilisi, surprised nobody has mentioned Warsaw. An awful soulless seedy kip of a place. You can get hammered there for cheap, but you can do that in a whole lot of nicer places

The coup de grace on my time in Warsaw was upon boarding the flight to Tbilisi an oul lad from Waterford got sick on my shoes.

Wasn't fussed on Warsaw at all - the old town and the area round the castle were nice enough.  Otherwise it was a big sprawling ugly communist-era kip.

This is when I knew the place was a kip LOL

Get the f**k out of here, I'm calling bullsh*t on that.
 
Been quite a few times and I very much doubt the bar staff were dealing coke, like any holiday destination though if you are looking drugs you will find it.
 
"nearly everyone there is a dealer" come on to f*ck man.

Get yerself to Ibiza or Magaluf and you'll find the bar staff on the main strips there deal alot worse than Coke.

So I dunno why you think my experience was an exclusive thing, bunch of holiday virgins around here. 
 
Oh totally agree, asked for a Sprite in a bar in Ibiza and sure they went and handed me a gram of Ket instead.

Yes.  Very poor country at the time but not as bad as described by the travel agents.  Tony Cascarino's late winner helped make it a great trip.    

Thanks!

I remember being fascinated by the trips to places like Latvia and Lithuania at the time.

This one seemed especially fascinating due to the lack of television coverage. It really added to the intrigue as I remember it being the only big game I my formative years that couldn’t be seen. I still remember the crackling radio coverage and the late winner.


I vaguely remember watching it live in a cinema or some special screening somewhere? It's all a bit foggy.. the lads who ran the Albania FA at that time had some notions.


Could it have been the Point Depot? That's where I think I watched it anyway!

Yeah, someone put it on in the point and sold tickets, I watched it in there as well.
