East_Stand_Al Posted July 11, 2014 Report Share Posted July 11, 2014 Flights and hotel booked, Welcome Break card identified to go for wee jaunts while in Iceland. What are people doing for match tickets? Well I'm kinda waiting for some sort of announcement, I'm really hoping the game is moved. Their stadium only holds 1000(Bangor took 80, pretty sure we'll have more than that). Saw a rumour it may be moved to the National Stadium in Reykjavik but I suspect at 1500 that would be too big. There is a 4000 all seater in Keflavic so that mught be a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightywellscott Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 does anyone actually know if the game will be moved to Reykjavik? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onthefringes Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 does anyone actually know if the game will be moved to Reykjavik? They're non committal on amount... They've said NO* one who wants to go will miss out so that's all that matters *provided you've travelled and not those who are part timers can't go for varying reasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamritchie Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 Any word on tickets yet for the game in Iceland? I'd assume it's a pick up over there. Not enough time to post them out now. As of 3 pm Wednesday the ticket office has no clue as to cost, amount of tickets or when they would get them. Is assume they will now have info at hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamritchie Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 The Icelanders never brough tickets with them so they will he on sale at their ground to away fans. I believe there is at least 160 available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say hello as I'm doing the exact same thing. Going to Bristol Wednesday afternoon to get as much sleep as possible before the crazy timed flight to Iceland.

Bop Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 3 of us heading to Iceland :-D Although while 2 of us fly out from Manchester at 7AM on the Thursday 1 of my mates can't get Thursday off work so is flying out on the 5PM flight from Edinburgh, gets in 40 minutes before kick off! He will be lucky to see the 2nd half!! Then we are going out to get completely pished in Reykjavik till 4AM and go straight to the airport for our morning flight back! Will be the shortest 'holiday' ever for him, less than 12 hours! Considering the ticket situation now thats a sore one for your mate.

ropy Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 I suspect that everyone will manage to see the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 I suspect that everyone will manage to see the game. They will, but the question is where. Icelandic sports bar telly? Due to them still having a good chance of a upset they will take all their allocated tickets. If we had won the game comfortably on Thursday there would have been no problem in accommodating 350-400 Well fans. However, now that the game is in the balance I am not so sure.

Onthefringes Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Much the same thinking underboyleheating. Hard to gauge how many are travelling though. The unwashed only took 200 last week so maybe some scope. What's for us won't go past us... Will it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 What is a reasonable estimate of the numbers travelling outside of the charter, is it really going to be 300? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 is it really going to be 300? General Manager Alan Burrows said: "We advised Stjarnan eight days ago that we expected approximately 300 / 400 Motherwell fans to make the trip to Iceland and asked for as many tickets as possible. "Frustratingly, the Samsung völlurinn holds just 1000 people meaning our allocation is small with UEFA rules stipulating a minimum of 5% (fifty tickets). 300/400 was the amount estimated by the club, however I am not sure how they reached that figure.

Tamritchie Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 As I don't arrive until Thursday afternoon I'll be watching from behind the goal outside the stadium. I have only a slightly better chance of a ticket as I arrive 8.30 am Thursday. Be straight to the stadium to see if any left. When I called the ticket office on Friday to enquire about tickets I was told the Icelanders offered 160. No idea what had changed. I assume you can only but one ticket? I know it's not motherwells fault but there will be fans miss out on a ticket that have not missed a match in ages, just because they arrive a bit early. Not exactly rewarding loyalty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking likely to miss out on both fronts. Tonight Matthew!

Frazzie Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 Obviously of that 160 the club charter folk need to be sorted out so safe enough assumption that it's a 75-seater plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazilian Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 I'd be thinking the plane will be bigger than that, what with the squad, management team, physios, doctors kit man, staff, press & media etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
