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?

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.

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 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.

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

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

This is the Big Square

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)

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Three wee radges in the square in Dnipro wasnae exactly trouble was it?

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.

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.
