In very worrying news for everyone. The last time I was in Athens I was pickpocketed. Set your pickpocketing senses on code red when you are thereShocked

Athens not confirmed yet 😬 
Will give me plenty of time to get wherever it is anyway

Sky Express are now flying internationally, and going from Brussels and to Heathrow with them.
I've factored in that the match might not be in Athens, and there's enough time either side of the flights to add on an internal Greek flight if needed.

I see we've never actually played Greece competitively before. Lost two and drew once in friendlies. 

Booked the Ryanair flight out on the Wednesday which has jumped up to 204 quid.

what’s the deadline for announcing the location is it 3 month starts or 120 days? It’s 127 days to kick off at present

The host association selects the venue for each match from the corresponding list of proposed stadiums and announces it to the UEFA administration at least 120 days before the match in question.

I assume these deadlines are usually ignored and Uefa don't do much about it?

No thought is ever given to travelling fans

No they wouldn't usually be ignored.
Only time uefa allow going past the 120 days is if they've given an extension to get a ground sorted, Gibraltar for example, uefa gave them extra time to get Victoria stadium sorted

Ive booked 4 nights in Glyfada,Oasis apartments I think. 
The rest will be in central Athens,not booked yet but have a few picked out with a pool. Reason for delay is I’m thinking of going to Poros for a night or 2 but 3 different accommodations in 10 days is a but messy!

Booked into the Palace Hotel for a week with the wife and kids.

Make an absolute bollocks of this holiday so costing me a $$$$

You would have thought we would have heard something, even perhaps that it was currently being discussed and there were a couple of options or whatever.
