Hi mate, I’ve got a few people on the waiting list, but should know tonight. It’s getting more difficult to get a hold of mini/midi buses in the Algarve area or faro.
Staying in albufeira now for the match saving the stress of missing it
Hi Chas
Just looking for 1 seat if so if one becomes available let me know please.
Thanks

Sounds like a plan, we’ve paid a €300 deposit on an 8 seater return to Seville but €37.50 each probably be a small price to pay to ensure we see the game in a decent environment, was really hoping they’d open the other 2 stadiums up for us to see the game, would be the next best thing for ticketless fans & probably be the best way of keeping order in the city, Manchester with sunshine comes to mind.

I've hired a car too. I'm going to Seville. If it looks like I won't be getting to see the game, I'll drive back at about 1830 and watch in Albufeira.
At least I'll have witnessed the atmosphere of the day.

Everywhere will show the game and loads will be bouncing. Bar 33 and the Empty Glass are the usual but there will be thousands of Rangers fans in Albufiera for the final and screens in almost every location.

I get that big time. We watched the semi in Albufiera and it was fantastic. Also you can drink and party til 4-5am with thousands of Rangers fans. A big decision.

I have actually been thinking of taking one for the team and hiring a 9-seater minibus. Of course the day of the match is the most expensive day to hire and with the border check, insurance and deisel/petrol then the cheapest Albufiera-Seville-back after game would be £99 a person. Dunno what others think but nobody wants to rip off fellow fans and if we had a few drivers willing to stay sober we could probably do it. Also we could watch the game somewhere and ferry fans to and fro Faro airport. Probably miles cheaper than anyone else.

We've done the same albeit a 4 seater which works out a bit dearer.
Just got the impression options are fast running out if we wanted to be in Seville.
Our driver is staying in seville to take us back too which gives me some reassurance we'll not get stuck

Having been in Albufeira now for a few days and been around.
I saw folks mentioned Sports Bar 33 and Carlos’s bar at Bullring.
Decent enough options if not willing to go anywhere from that area or The Strip, but I would be looking at maybe 8 Euros in an Uber down to the Old Town where many more far better/bigger pubs with multi large screens the streets around the Old Town Square. Liverpool game on here the now and much better places for folk to see the game in my opinion.

Bar 33 isn’t a big bar and certainly won’t accommodate massive numbers. It’s a decent Sports bar though and serves a good pint.

4 of us going. Arrive late on Monday night and head home on Friday. The general consensus was to find transport to Seville, assuming they put on fan zones and areas to watch the game. If they don't (which would be an abomination), then I'd rather just stay in Albufeira and not risk missing it, cause it looks like it's going to cost a lot to make the journey, unless coaches are put on.

You are spot on. The smaller places do show Rangers games when they clash with others but the whole Old Town and strip will be party places on the night with no clashes. Also bigger screens everywhere. I like to sing karaoke after the game as well! Also never paid more than 5 euros from strip to old town in a local taxi.
Where did you book this mate and get to find out driver staying in Seville?
Just slightly wary of paying megabucks and trusting a driver to be at the same place 12 hours later or whatever.

You can get regular public transport options or book for 10 euros a head. They also do shared taxis. To be honest I reckon most flights will arrive with quite a few bears so would advise sharing.

The reason I said pm me about the strip joints is that the best and most affordable place is now shut down. There are now 2 but you will get hassle - however the alcohol is real. It costs 10 euros for entry (a drink is included) but there are no stage shows - everything is private. Starts at 30 euros for a dance and 50 with touching. A long long time ago I used to go out with one but those days are gone.

Have a family friend in Vilamoura and he passed on the details of a guy who does it for a living.
His 4 cars are all full but got me the number of a girl who does it too, she's only one car so unfortunately they're full up.
If it wasn't for it being a friend of a friend I'd never have trusted them
