BSM The situation around the Central Train station in Luxembourg was mild in comparison to Munich / Frankfurt etc

Was in Frankfurt for New Years nearly 3 years ago and I’ve never felt as unsafe anywhere in my life.
We went to Cologne the friday and had great craic from what I remember, I wouldn’t be back to Luxembourg in too much of a hurry though as found the place a bit dull and boring, but still a great trip overall. The match was possibly my favourite since Cardiff 2017, the stadium made the atmosphere. |

Only back, did a night in Cologne with the missus on the way back, beautiful city, wish we'd had more time there.
Craic in the local boozer beside that Dipso place (very apt name for a boozer ) after the match was something else for the last hour before it closed. Great to catch up with so many people we'd not seen for two years. Agree on what people are saying about Luxembourg, the city itself was lovely but just very 'nice'. No edge to it at all but kept very well, all perfectly manicured. Can tell it's rolling in money and is full of the diplomatic set. But the staff everywhere were good to deal with and any locals we dealt with were sound. Cologne far better as a city though. Atmosphere in away end was good, first half performance not great but game swung on the disallowed goal and once we got ahead we closed things out very well. Stonewall pen on Idah in the first half, how the hell does VAR not look at that? Thought the call to disallow their goal was correct at least. Kenny deserves the contract at this stage, trajectory is up over last number of games and no point changing track when his current contract runs out two thirds of the way through Nations League.

Good trip topped off with the result. Nice enough city but a bit boring. Great noise in the away end. A few very drunk fellas, don't know how a couple of them didn't break their necks after going arse over tit on those steep steps in the stadium. Great to be back on the road again.

I want to know the lyrics to the Paul McShane (You're so Vein) song. Some laugh at that!! As for the poor chap on the plane I couldn't really see what was going on but it looked like he may be having some sort of fit. Hope he's ok anyway. He was sitting up on the seat anyway ok but looked fasirly shook by it

I quite enjoyed the city - done the walking tours enough places to drink to avoid the messy ones

The doctor/nurse who treated the guy on the plane was sitting by me. Heard him say to fella next to him that the guy had epilepsy. Was an ambulance waiting by plane on arrival but assume that is standard after an incident like that.

Exactly it's great that the players celebrated the first two goals with the fans, but imagine playing out the rest of the game covered in stale beer !! If I was a player I'd be avoiding that situation.

Really not a fan of beer being allowed into the stands. Plenty of time for drinking before and after. Had to laugh at the lads picking up the empties for the deposits though, heard of lads walking out with a nice few quid at €2 a pop.
