Either:
3 credits from 18/19 onwards will be guaranteed, 2 in next sale.
5 credits from 17/18 onwards will be guaranteed, 4 in next sale.

More likely to be first one, 3 from:
Napoli
Red Star
PSG
Bayern
Porto
Barca
Napoli
Genk

Direct flights are mental prices as expected. Barca ones are pricey too. Liverpool to South of France and most Manc South of France ones don't start til May. Gonna have to get creative for this one.

If you're driving try to avoid the toll roads through France as they're exorbitant to say the least.
It's true to say that if Shankly had told us to invade Poland we'd be queuing up 10 deep all the way from Anfield to the Pier Head.

You need to try something different this time then mate.  I'm sure you'll find some obscure but cheap way of getting there and make dozens of friends on the way.

Found one but dont have the funds to book it right now which is doing my head in. The other thing is the ALSA ( Spanish Buses ) website is not giving me a timetable for their buses. My Spanish is muy poco and it won't translate into English at the minute.

I'll get there though .

For people looking at alternative routes perhaps fly to Malaga and train to Madrid. Trains can be booked using the Trainline app, Malaga María Zambrano - Madrid Atocha.

Speke to Malaga prices are already shooting up so be quick. That was my route but it ain't happening. Also with to note its an 11.20am flight back and the first choo choo from Madrid on the Wednesday morning gets to Malaga at 10am.

Totally swerved.

This ASLA bus website has been saying since about 3pm a temporary error has occured . BUSCAR I think means SEARCH but will it fuck BUSCAR !

Getting the timetables is all I need and then Iam a step nearer to my route.

Aw. Thanks .

I've seen cheap flights from the South of England to Spain and have many friends in zee South so could crash in theirs for a night.  Like I said in my previous post this ALSA website is doing my head in. Flights from the Canaries to Madrid and other parts of Spain are fuck all but its getting to the Canaries in the Winter from the here is the pricey bit .

Madrid is deffo the hardest one to get to on a budget . The rest were a doddle .

Sevilla - Madrid £ 15.00 ( Tuesday and will be in Madrid at 10am  )

Will have to kip at Sevilla Airport as only abar 9 hours between flights. If I go to Sevilla Ciudad I'll fuck everything up.
