The mancityfans.net football forum

Mainly @ Anti and Mikka

I am flying to helsinki tonight so if either of you are about for a beer, give me a shout. Mikka, you seem to have disapeared from my facebook but I will text you in abit.

I need somewhere to watch the City Wigan game and the liverpool rag game over the weekend, preferbly very centraly located.

Also do they have a football team? are they worth watching? are tickets easy to get? and do they have a home game this weekend?

Thanks all!

How much does a pint cost over there, just for interest?

Youve got more important things to be doing that Helsinki.

The finnish season begins in two months so it's basically pre-season here. (though they, like the biggest club in Helsinki, do play a League Cup today...but the importance is non-existent really)

First of all we don't have Pints here, usually bars sell beers in amounts of 0,4l, some sell half litre "pints" and the price in bars is usually around 5euro mark and in nightclubs usually 6eur. There are some areas like Kallio where it is a bit cheaper, perhaps around 3-4euros often.
Drinks are far more expensive though, not so long ago I paid 9,50for a rum and coke.

But yeah, sounds like it's party night today afterall for me! haha

If your alcohol is that expensive no wonder you love getting pissed in Manchester.

Makes more sense now, doesn't it! And of course add to that it's always holiday when I'm over

Shit mate! Should've given me shout earlier. I'll be out of town 'til monday morning. How long are you staying? Would love to meet again!

Is that your pre natal tummy rubbing and deep bresthing exercise classes? Or the boil yerself in a sauna, freeze yer bollocks in the snow before self whipping with tree branches week end.
You Finns really know how to parteeeeee!!!!...:-)

Yeah it is. But once Lee gets his hands on a computer he can tell from his own experience how expensive it is. We had fun last night but I reckon he spent his entire budget last night and a bit more.

Man, you still around? Give us a shout if you are.

Lee flew back yesterday.. or at least they had flights for last night!
