Malmo who's going/ where are we congregating

[WHUHibs]

Now the flights are booked,,,we are all travelling,,worried about tickets how to collect them,,

Who is going and is there a central venue to meet on Thursday before the game like Dnipro?

[Willis1875]

A place called lilla torg is the place to be I think according to some reviews.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Lilla Torg sounds quite similar to Oude Markt in Leuven judging by the reviews on TripAdvisor. Anybody else that was there last year will be able to confirm what a great place that was.

[1875hibee]

We get in via aberdeen -london -Copenhagen on wed afternoon from what iv seen looks like a no bad city for a party sure we can find a square with a few pubs and set up camp something like the square in Maribor would do the trick from what I can remember :confused: seems everything is no far from the main train station . Anyone know how far the ground is from the train station ?

[Hedlund12]

Got my hubby to check for me and the ground is about 2 miles from the train station...

[franks]

Will get there Tuesday afternoon Manchester via Copenhagen. sure we'll find the action, Can't wait. :flag:

This is my understanding. Hopefully those due to be on the charter find other arrangements. more the merrier

[LancashireHibby]

On the 10.45 flight from Manchester on Wednesday morning to Copenhagen.

Never mind Malmö, where are we boozing in Terminal One?!

[ronaldo7]

This is the Big Square

http://wikitravel.org/en/File:Malmo-Stortorget.jpg

Alternatively

Malmö is also known for its after-hours clubs, called "svartklubbar" ("black clubs", meaning they are part of the black market); These are illegal nightclubs/bars which sell alcohol without a license under the guise of being "private parties" or "Members only clubs", but in reality let anyone in. These establishments often have later opening hours and cheaper prices than legal nightclubs and usually allow smoking; Because of their later opening hours, people often continue their night out by going to a black club when the legal nightclubs close (usually at 3am). The epicentre for these nightclubs is the industrial area on and around Norra Grängesbergsgatan, but they can be found all over Malmö, usually in industrial areas. Due to their illegal nature, these establishments generally do not advertise their whereabouts publicly and can thus be hard to find, but asking some locals or a taxi driver will usually yield results.

Good man, we're aiming for a similar time. Managed to get a mate to drop us off for a tenner, but doing the M6/M56 route which should hopefully be a bit quieter than trying to get through the M61/M60 gridlock.

On a related note, does anyone know if Malmö has a reputaton for, how to put it, unsavoury supporters?

Meaning, if we walk about town with Hibs colours are we likely to get trouble (a-la in Dnipro)

As with any team there is an element of support hell bent on causing trouble, what you will find is that in sweden the very small element of the malmo support that would do this will more than likely be ok and welcome us, allbeit due to the reputation of our unsavoury element haha. like visiting any country if you go looking for a swedge you'll get one but all in all we will be greeted well in sweden, i cant see there being any bother whatsoever.

[Johnny Clash]

My mates in Copenhagen wander about with bottles of lager stuffed in rucksacks, scooping it down while walking down the street. No hassle from cops.

Does anyone know if it's the same in Sweden? Carry oots from supermarkets might be an idea. Gotta find some way to cool down with all that sun forecast!!

Not sure about that Johnny.
When we went over for the Elfsborg game, I learned that part of the reason for the high alcohol prices were to counter a chronic alcoholism problem they had a while back.....bet that sounds familiar.
Carry outs, as I recall, are scarce. Or they were in Gothenburg, sadly.

[Andy74]

Anybody else flying from Stanstead direct to Malmo on Wednesday?

Yeah, me. Back on the Friday to Stansted.

[Since90+2]

How many do people expect we are taking to Malmo?

If we get around 1,000 should be a cracking atmosphere in the city and in the ground.

Also wonder what sort of crowd Malmo will have , they averaged around 14,000 last season but only had 5k at the Drogheda game.

[sbell1875]

It'll be -1 as I won't be going after the prices rocketed on Thursday.

[Keith_M]

I would have thought it would be 3-400.

Probably would have been a lot more if there was a few weeks notice but we only knew for certain who and when we would be playing a week before the game.

[lucky]

Anybody else flying from Stanstead direct to Malmo on Wednesday?

4 of us. A few on Bounce as well

[WHUHibs]

4 of us. A few on Bounce as well

Co we have a concencous where we will all gather on Thursday before the game? Do we have any ideas on numbers?

[Swedish hibee]

Your not allowed to drink in public, but if there is a load of hibbys sitting in a park in the sunshine and not causing Hassel- then maybe they'll turn a blind eye.. but then again it is Sweden!! The supermarkets are of course alot cheaper than the bars, but you can't buy alcohol in them after 8pm and it's only alcohol up to 5%. Anything over 5% has to be bought elsewhere and they are open 'silly' times like 10-4.. Get your duty free!
Now there's loads of nice wee bars to choose from with outdoor areas, and there's a few 'chains' where the beer will be a tad cheaper. I remember the Bishop's Arms was about 55sek for beer, and note it isn't a full pint glass either! The joys of Swedish life!
You won't have any hassle from locals, It's a city that is very used to tourists (it held the Eurovision!) and they will enjoy having us along as we behave ourselves! They all speak most excellent English, and won't mind being asked for any help.
Just don't get a taxi anywhere (VERY expensive) and bring your own painkillers (for the day after!) as the pharmacy is also very expensive.
Can't wait!!!! We must win or I'll get 'slaughtered' by my workmates.. I've bigged up Hibs a bit too much over the years :wink:

[YehButNoBut]

Möllan, as the locals call Möllevångstorget is an area in Malmo with more pubs than anywhere else.

Has a large square with bars around it so would seem the ideal place.

It's also not too far from the ground.

You can buy alcohol in a bar or club at 18, you just can't buy it from the state run off-license until you are 20+. A stupid law, but the idea being that the bar staff can control how drunk you get.

It is confusing!
You can drink at 18 years old but many bars won't serve anyone under 23 !
And if your buying alcohol above 5% you need to use Systembolaget and they won't serve anyone under 25.
Basically if a bar/nightclub won't serve him- just accept it and move on. This is the way it is here :rolleyes:

..... Maybe enough for a bag of peanuts :dunno: .. Then again, maybe's not..

[Swedish hibee]

And wine

I never drink spirits here in Sweden, so I'm really unsure how much you'll pay :confused: Beer can be anything from 50sek upwards, depending on where you are (hotels more expensive than bars and nightclubs more expensive than hotels) and wine is usually around the same-ish price as beer (again depending on where you are)

[Skåne Hibs]

Your not allowed to drink in public, but if there is a load of hibbys sitting in a park in the sunshine and not causing Hassel- then maybe they'll turn a blind eye.. but then again it is Sweden!!

I'm not sure that this is the case. I think that Malmö and Lund are the exception and you can drink in a public place as long as you cause no annoyance to those around you, however, the Police can ask you to stop drinking your alcohol at anytime.

[Derek Adam]

OK I can add to this being a Malmo resident.

Lilla torg is the hot spot, Mollan is another, cheaper, slightly rougher drinking area. also where the MFF fans will go before.

In Lilla torg is Drum bar https://www.facebook.com/drumbar.torg?fref=ts , offering 44SEK beers to fans, cheaper than us locals get them for.

Spirits - be very aware, when you are quoted a price it is per cl (10ml) and the usual serving is 4 or 6, starting at about 15sek per cl.

wine is about 65sek,

exchange rate is 10 sek to a £

it will take about 45 mins to walk to stadium, beer and burgers in stadium for sale.

MFF do have a casuals crew, some may try stirring things up about town.
But watch for their singing section, with the conductor with megaphone leading them behind the goals :)

Looking forward to a good beer, and game.

Some people in the thread must have got some things wrong. You can't buy any alcohol at all at supermarkets at any time of the day. They just sell "folköl" wich is 3,5% not 5% like swedish hibee say. Any alcohol you want to take with you has to be bought at systembolaget, ****ty opening hours and not so many of them to find. At systembolaget you have to be 20 years of age to buy. In all pubs the age is 18 unless for some nightclubs wich want to attract older people and for that reason they don't let teenagers in.

Drinking in publik is forbidden by law but is often not a problem as long as you don't hussle anyone, but and this is a big but. Since you guys are football supporters there is a risk the police won't alove it.

Möllan is as said before the place where all malmöfans warm up before the game and the police won't let you anyway near that place in any larger numbers as they will try to avoid confrontations. Lilla torg I belive is the best place for you guys to gather during your days in town.

I think most of you will be fine, but seeing you have a firm there will probably be some having an eye on you. Normal supporters is most likely left alone, but if you come to the city taking liberties there will probably be trouble. Stay away from Möllan is a tip, all nights.

We have two ultras crews and a casual.

I see some other incorrect assumptions in here.
-You CAN buy beer (no wine, vodka etc) at local supermarkets. But it's only up to 3,5% If you want stronger (who doesn't), you need to go to Systembolaget which closes 6pm on weekdays

Because Möllan is the place where all Malmö supporters gather, Malmö supporters both native swedes and those with immigrant backgrounds...we have what some would describe as a hooligan problem.
You dont have an immigrant problem, we have a problem with huge social inequalities. And this leads to constant riots in the city from different groups and areas...it is a very dynamic city and our police are all *******s.

We have sold over 500 according to the boy in the ticket office/shop today. We defo dont have a immagration problem in Edinburgh.

Our club was created in 1910 with our biggest success in the 70s when we won the title five times, in total we have won the title 16 times and the cup 14 times. In 1979 we also had our biggest success in Europe playing the Champions League final against Brian Cloughs Nottingham Forests losing in Munich with 1-0. In the 80s we had some success but in the 90s it was a very dark time for our club and in 1999 we were degraded to the second league. A lad you might know Zlatan Ibrahimovic helped us to regain some glory advancing into the highest league again and later he was sold for the biggest sum ever and all the sudden we were a relatively rich club again, Building a new stadium and are now slowly playing regularly in Europe again. And with all of Zlatans transfers he is the most expensive player ever and we have made a lot of money on him so we are hoping he will be sold again from PSG to an english team. :)

Here you go! Sevral places within the city center where you can take a swim or burn your white skin ;)

[Johnny Clash]

No there is not, we are all working class standing togheter. There is much tension against the rich, against the state and working class enemies.

SDL/EDL visiting Malmö some months ago, this is our reaction:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSQjp1p442w

And I am pleased to hear Connolly was a fan of hibs :)


Well said mate. Like most cities the only 'immigrant problem' we have are a minority of saddo bone heads who think it's cool to attack immigrants. The very same problem that our club's founders had to deal with back in 1875 when anti Irish mobs in Edinburgh tried to destroy Hibernian Football Club.

And yes, James Connolly was born a few hundreds yards from our club and supported Hibs for all of his short life. He even carried the team's strips to the training ground when he was really young.

Having said all that ... here's hoping there'll be no idiots acting up in Malmo and we can all have a good bevy and enjoy the occasion!

[LancashireHibby]

Not long since back from the Bolton game at Rotherham and off to the airport in a little over 6 hours, should really think about going to bed!

Safe trip down to those who are coming to Manchester, see you in the airport bar.

[SteveHFC]

On the way down to Manchester just now :-)

[JOD]

Just to remind everyone I have a flight home for a Hibee from Copenhagen on friday:flag:. My pleas in Pisa did not work so I'm back home. 40 YRS and all that didnae work.If any body wants it will only cost change of name. God bless the Hibernian FC.:greengrin

[Gala Foxes]

10.10 flight to Stansted - in Malmo for 7pm - Hibs On Tour

[marinello59]

Taxi coming soon, breakfast awaits at the Airport. :thumbsup:

[God Petrie]

Sitting wi first pint. Looks like a decent number of Hibs boys kicking about the airport.

[hibs0666]

The Hibs charter departs at 10am. Give them a cheer for me.

[OxoHibby]

Heading out tomorrow with an honorary hibby mate from Heathrow via Copenhagen.
Should make it to Lilla Torg for mid afternoon

:flag::flag:

[Since90+2]

We arrived in Sweden yesterday and alcohol is not as much as we feared.

About 4.40 for a Heineken although we are currently in Gothenburg so no idea how that compares to Malmo. Food is expensive though and so are the taxis.

[Derek Adam]

Just an update on the Drum bar prices, my original contact has parted ways with them.

However i spoke to the Boss and he is still doing the offer, but its 49SEK not 44 as previously hoped for.
121 for a burger/chips etc.

They may get a bit busy as there could be a hell of a lot of you, and they will open the back courtyard bar as well.

There is a new barman, Joe, who is Scottish and hes looking forward to the banter.

Oh and tickets available at the stadium probably on thursday

[Andy74]

On the Stansted Express. Here we go!

[lucky]

On the Stansted Express. Here we go!

[Lucius Apuleius]

Edi airport. Well outnumbered by Perth saintees.

[joe breezy]

Massively jealous.

When we went to Boras I thought Sweden was the best country i've ever been to and vowed to go back but haven't been back since i'm afraid. Damn.

That'll teach me for using up all my holidays and spending too much cash in Thailand in May.

Hope we get another Swedish trip in future rounds...

Had flights sorted, had hotel sorted, had work off sorted......or so I thought until they decided to play silly ****ers and say I couldn't have it off because it was a 'verbal agreement' and not official leave.

I spoke to the big Cop a few times. He said he came to Scotland in 1994 to watch the World Cup. I said it wasn't on in Scotland, he said he just wanted to come over, see a bit of our country and watch a bit of football. He loved Scotland, so it helped that he understood our approach to football
