I posted this in the other thread but just to make people aware and ensure they are vigilant.
I know a Vardar fan who was part of their hooligans.
I asked him what they’re like he said they were all Albanian Muslims with some of the fans part of radical groups like ISIS and similar.
He said be careful as they carry knives. Vardar fans hate them and have been looking for a an opportunity like this with lots of visiting fans to fight them.
Don’t want to scaremonger only passing on what he told me.

As did 5 of us, Wednesday to Saturday from London.
60 euro cancellation fee on each flight too, not looking good for us.

It seems you can get a train from Thessaloniki to Skopje takes about 3 and a half hours with a small part done via bus.
Would need to be done the night before as its once daily arriving at 10pm. (edit seems one part needs to be done by bus)
Thessaloniki,
Train timetable: Serbian Railways http://w3.srbrail.rs/ZSRedVoznje/en

You will get an email asking if you want to apply for a ticket. They will then notify you if you are successful if you reply in the positive. As you will be on zero points then for this round you should have no problem in being allocated a ticket if game played in Phillip II stadium unless Rangers only take a small allocation.

If folk paying that amount then they are daft. Much cheaper to go Indy
They struggled to do it for that much 10 years ago, be much higher considering the short notice and distance IMO
What makes you think that? Would happily pay that, the £500+I've seen other people estimate would take a bit more consideration.
Alternative that I was looking at was flight toThessaloniki from GLA/Manc then train up.

£170 quid from glasgow to sofia then a taxi from sofia to skopje is €100 which is good if theres 4/5 of yous. Direct going and 1 stop on the way back.

Was at least £400 to Luxembourg last season, I think its going to be at least that again for this one, probably more. Short time frame to get a plane during the summer holidays

Thers a group of us doing that. Happy to help mate!
How long is it in a taxi from Sofia to Skopje mate?
Thinking of travelling alone from Dubai 
AyrshireBear72

Around an hour and a half apparently
sregnar

3 and a half hours.
Yeah just checked and general consensus is 3.5/4 hours. Less appealing via that route if that's the case.

That no by bus? Someone thats done that route told me its an hour in a taxi
bobally
Well-Known Member
250km roughly and will be close to 4 hours plus a border crossing
Was the taxi flying
Road must be shit if you average 60km an hour!! Could be 7 hours with a few bevvy stops

Just pretend you are Michael Palin doing one of these Balkan tours. Straight from Skopje to Osijek is your best bet as we might get Maribor in Q3 if we make it through

Do they let you know how much it is to get there by official travel before you apply for tickets?

Fine if you have the holidays going spare. You're not the only one spending half the summer in the balkans

Imagine planning holidays before you know our Euro games
It was fine before they brought out the stupid non season ticket rules for the travel club as I could combine both. This will likely be another disgrace with Rangers returning or not accepting thousands of tickets and bears in the home end.
