From reading the various messageboards, it seems obvious that the most difficult game for Blues fans to get to is NK Maribor, on the 29th September. With flights to Graz, Vienna and even Zagreb being snapped up, it’s getting increasingly harder to get to the Slovene club and for many, the price is prohibitive.

Thus I’m pleased to be able to promote a day trip being offered by charter specialists Sport Options. They’ve been in the business for 20 years, and took out Rangers fans to Slovenia earlier this month. The price of £295 includes direct flights from Birmingham to Maribor, and coach transfers from the airport to the city centre of Maribor. The price DOES NOT include match tickets.

For those of you who are restricted on getting time off work, or don’t want the hassle of a 2-3 hour drive in central Europe (or to/from London), this may well be the trip for you. If this sounds good, just click the link.
