Anyone in Seville yet?

[aayjay]

No. Leaving on a jet plane from San Francisco later today.

Those bi-planes just don't cut it these days. So draughty. Safe journey.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Didn't know there was going to be a fan zone there?, thought the two fan zones were Almeda de Hercules for fans with match tickets and the other one was at the ground showing the game on the screens. The Frankfurt fan zone is right behind the Plaza de Espana

That's what I am thinking. What's with the Plaza de Espana thing? I think @LetsGo is in the wrong place if he's looking for our fanzones. Or is that where UEFA are doing their thing with the trophy etc?

After dialogue with UEFA, Spanish Police and the local authorities, we can confirm the organisation of a fan viewing area in the Estadio La Cartuja, for those supporters without tickets.

"Further details will be released by the Stadium Manager in the coming days.

"There will also be a fan meeting point in Alameda de Hércules for those supporters with a ticket for the final.

"There will be no public viewing of the game in the fan zone area. More information will be provided in the coming days."

 

[Alfie shhh!]

I've worked at festivals where we've put rigging and lighting up the day before it starts. From empty fields to full music festival in a day, it's amazing what can be achieved in such little time so we'll be fine!

City will 100% be drunk dry. Thank %^*& I’m not a big drinker. From memory the big newly renovated street with the trams between Alcazar and Giralda will be the obvious main area folk will congregate.

Glad I booked a table for me and the boy on Tuesday night as genuinely thinking we might struggle to get food on the Wednesday. I can go without but the wee man will be a hangry wee bugger !

I did likewise for Tuesday night and Wednesday lunchtime. Drinking on an empty stomach is a guaranteed way to end up wrecked. None of this eating’s cheating shite.

 

[LJ50]

Yes, arrived in this morning from Chicago via Madrid. Knackered but going to grab some beers for the fridge and go for a wee run round the city (when it cools down )

Feels like the calm before the storm right now.

 

[Coza]

I did likewise for Tuesday night and Wednesday lunchtime. Drinking on an empty stomach is a guaranteed way to end up wrecked. None of this eating’s cheating shite.

There’s another big square towards the river near where I stayed when I went with pizza places etc on it and a good 10-15 from the giralda area. I’m thinking of heading there for lunch on Wednesday and hope we get in somewhere.

Same, 9 of us booked in for food on Wednesday, have a feeling getting in anywhere without booking will be near impossible.

It's the place for the 'official' UEFA sideshow.

 

[Blutoe]

There are no plans for the Placa Espagne. There is only the government building, the city pavilions and a big park. There is one small cafe.

 

[LetsGo]

I never said "our" fanzone would be there. The only info I've provided was from the Sevilla FC page and the city authorities site/twitter which up until a few days ago had no mention of anything for us/eintracht to watch the game on. They had only mentioned they were expecting 50,000 people into the city and one UEFA fanzone which was the plaza Espana .

I saw that when you made post #36 mate. I did guess at UEFA thing tbf.

 

[TQ3]

Manana manana eh

Kinda, but not really. My nephew works for PGA European tour promotions. So he travels around these courses, sets the sponsors signage up and then takes it all down on the Monday and Tuesday, and away to the next one. They are pro’s at knocking these things up in a day or two max.

 

[Tamson]

Wouldn’t have expected anything to be in place yet, it’s only Sunday.

 

[Coza]

Just looked on map the further away square/area I was thinking might be less stowed was plaza de Hercules which has been referenced plenty in here. Went to a really nice hipster bar for food last time I was over. Will email them to see if I can book in the Wednesday but I’m sure my chances are slim.

 

[Andrew webb]

Take a walk up to Almeda de Hercules to see what they've got sorted. That should be better for us.

Where is to Seville stadium ?

 

[joseph]

No surprise its a fan zone for Wednesday

Official one for those with tickets is actually for Tuesday and Wednesday

 

[Coza]

Where is to Seville stadium ?

Other side of town. The giralda square etc is closer. Not a huge walk but maybe 30-40 minutes to the stadium from there.

 

[Andrew webb]

Arrived today. Not sure where the Bears have visited yet.

Been down the Alameda De Hercules tonight. Not bad.

Hopefully tomorrow more Rangers fans filter through.

Temp was hot during the day. Cooler at night and quite breezy

Is Alameda de Hercules near Seville stadium or close to Glasgow in Seville in the park ?
Thanks

 

[Live Forever]

Is Alameda de Hercules near Seville stadium or close to Glasgow in Seville in the park ?
Thanks

Think about 30 mins away

 

[DeanCrosskeys]

Supposedly there’s buses being put on to take the fans to the stadium.

 

[brother1]

It was for a friends special occasion and had been cancelled due to covid. He's doing it with his wife and another couple and was re-arranged from last year. Poor guy is devastated.

I still have to say that it would be getting binned and I'm sure everyone would understand. Surely?

 

[BlueBear1972]

Looks like I might be one of the only ones running the gauntlet! Got a flight Wednesday from Teesside to Faro arriving 3:30 all going to plan then pre-booked taxi to Seville should take 2 hours. Any delays and it’s going to be tight! Fingers crossed all goes well on the day.

 

[DylanGer]

Wee Wadey coming out to watch it with me.

Would have bet money he would have been going

 

[geedee]

Seville, brace yourself……….

Spain, Portugal and all stops between brace yourself………,

 

[BrunoBear]

I still have to say that it would be getting binned and I'm sure everyone would understand. Surely?

A European final has to be a free pass surely

 

[vinnie]

I’m sure the industrious Rangers support can help throw the fanzone together on Tuesday night.

 

[Family bam]

Would have bet money he would have been going

He's far too sensible now!!

 

[DylanGer]

He's far too sensible now!!

I met him a few weeks back at Ibrox he's looking well........

 

[Jimmy Mac]

Avoid 1987 bar. Unless gay boozers is your thing.

Your holes your hole

 

[BlueBadger]

First leg done. Edinburgh to Newcastle Airport. Anyone driving here give yourself half an hour for the tractors.

 

[irvine96]

Just arrived in marbella . Roll on Wednesday

Hopefully you will manage something else to eat before Wednesday!!

[Live Forever]

Granada Loyal here in numbers. Big game to avoid relegation.

 

[Kowloon72]

[Blu_ultra]

Are the Frankfurt fans in the same fanzones as us?

 

[Pablo Escobar]

it is only sunday tbf

 

[blutos]

Get yourself to the Betis/Granada game tonight mate, will be good fun.

Betis trying to stay in the Europa places, Granada 2 points above relegation zone

 

[sprally]

The place will be drunk dry on Tuesday night.
I’m no sure they realise the numbers that will be there

 

[CF4]

No sign of Uefa or workers setting anything up.

1 small bar here with 1 toilet cubicle

Another small pop up bar next to the dirt football pitch.

Some Granada fans dotted about. Making a racket

Decent amount of shops/supermarkets for a cargo?

 

[jierobinson92]

Right where is all the bears tonight? The party has started

 

[TheGreatDane]

Take a walk up to Almeda de Hercules to see what they've got sorted. That should be better for us.

Is this also a fan zone for us mate?

 

[RenfrewBear72]

Are the Frankfurt fans in the same fanzones as us?

The one we’ve booked is noted as “Glasgow Rangers”, would be mental to put us together with they c*nts.

 

[CF4]

Is this also a fan zone for us mate?

It's the meeting point for those who have tickets mate.

 

[Live Forever]

Decent amount of shops/supermarkets for a cargo?

Lots of small places. Maybe similar to our Tesco Express shops.

Never put off til tomorrow what you can put off til the day after.

 

[Highway Star]

No mate.

 

[derbybear]

There’s another big square towards the river near where I stayed when I went with pizza places etc on it and a good 10-15 from the giralda area. I’m thinking of heading there for lunch on Wednesday and hope we get in somewhere.

Ah!
The Square Piza

 

[Coza]

"Eat up wee man. This is to last you about 36 hours"

Scarily accurate

 

[TheGreatDane]

It's the meeting point for those who have tickets mate.

Cheers mate. Looks a fair trek to the stadium.
