Over heard a guy asking where was he in the stadium. Also the singing for the national anthem was about 2 seconds ahead of the music, drink must have been a factor.


At least he was in the stadium , I was talking to a chap who never even made it to the game

Agreed.

I normally pace myself for matches, home & away. But this time around I was absolutely scuttered in the stadium.

Was on the pints/cans early on but when we were outside the Tortilla factory I started working into a bottle of vodka a random Pole bought us in the offo. And as if that wasnt enough, had another few swigs of another. bottle outside with some more Poles.

I remember the first half grand, was standing up the front at the barriers singing & chanting, but some bollox got the guards to get us to sit down for the second half. Once I sat down and the effects started kicking in, I was gone, and the rest of the night was pretty much a blur from there on. Still feel Dead

Good trip that was.
Found it a bit more expensive as I thought but then again it was the capital city.
Found the natives to be quite boring but it's said the Warsaw folk are different anyway.😂😂
Had my missus(who is polish btw)over with me and her mate lives there so got the whole tour.
The uprising museum is worth a look.
The piwpaw bar with 120 different beers on tap was worth a visit.👏👏🍻🍻
Tortilla factory was jammers even I got there bout 4, couldn't get a space at the bar so went to zabka and got a few bottles, was grand after that.
Well done again lads, no auld sh*te happened and we go again.
ybig.👏👏👏👏

Any chance Gerk, Count or Hoskins could organise a YBIG choir lesson the week before the playoff to get us all in sync?

Jeans hanging off the light shade and for some unknown and bizzare reason I put all my socks into the safe and locked it. Forgot the pin so had 1 pair of socks for the 4 days....

Same as you NR the music was haunting i think that is the best word for it .
NR now i have lived a somewhat sheltered life as that was the first time i have " ever " seen a 3D movie i was expecting something to jump out at me and it didn't happen , all very disappointed i must say .
Caught TJ heading in while we were going out Thumbs Up

Ohhh NR one thing that did shock me about the movie were the stats at the end as it said pre 1939 Warsaw had a population of 1.3 million and at the end of Oct 1944 it has less that 1000
