I checked earlier and from Cov it's 17 hours driving! I love a road trip, but that's excessive for a friendly.

Tis indeed.
That would be just like trying to get from the Radford Road to the Butts in a few years time.

You can take a few hours off that unless you drive slowly. I also travel through the night. And remember most roads through Europe are not congested like ours
You would have loved the Italy one. 24 hours each way from where I live
Could have done it nearly 2 hours quicker but would have cost just over 100 euro extra each way in road tolls. Also took boat to break up the journey. Started in England. Then France, Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland and ended up in Italy. Was fucked when I got there

Haven't looked exactly yet until I know if I can go or not.

Whooaaaaa - what's all this wine stuff - Austria's very close to Peroni country, and if my memory serves me well this time last year you were practically advertising said drink on here !!I could take 7 in the motor I would use. Would cost me about £350 return. And that is in luxury.
And enough room still to bring back a couple of hundred bottles of wine to pay for the journey

I brought back lots of bottles of Peroni 900cl only 99c a bottle. The wife kept giving them away saying that they were cheap
Bigger saving on the wine though. I like to bring back a years supply each year and see how quickly the wife can drink it

Just seen that we are now playing FC Sturm Graz at our training base at 11am on Saturday now.
Does that mean we're not playing the Arabs?
I'm definately not waiting around next season to see where the 'tour' (or day trip as this would be, or nothing if last year is anything to go by) will be!
Other teams have played a number of games now, some in Austria too! Did we just drawer the short straw?

I can't get my head round this, why go all the way to Austria just to do some training and then have a kick about at their training ground. :woot: :jawdrop:

Did anyone make the journey? if so how did you get there?... I had to bail out because I got to take poxy pictures at a poxy wedding with my daughter FFS... I was looking forward to some fresh mountain air as well

I gave it a miss unfortunately. not too pleased at missing it but the short notice, regular changes in plans meant once it was finalised id lost interest in going
