My son and myself had the pleasure ðŸ‘what sticks in the mind are the Beattie chants in particular and the bottom tier in the SanSiro getting fuller and fuller. The memories 😀

I was there. Never forget the bus ride through the city centre under police bike escort. Plus being left in the ground after the Milan fans had left. A few of their fans in the 'ultra section watching us sing sh1t ground no fans.

Didn't go to Moscow but you're right Helsingborg was fantastic.
Moscow was different......only around 1,000 town fans there and my first time watching Ipswich abroad, so always a special moment. Interesting place to visit, but not your typical football trip away destination.
Helsinborg was superb. We stayed in Copenhagen, which was pricey, but had 2 great nights in their clubs. In Helsingborg, the day, match and after match was just a full on top football day out.
Left PR something like 0430 on the morning of the game for Stansted. The flight was delayed and doubts about going at all because of fog in Milan and got back to PR about 0430 the next day I think.
Being there was quite an experience wasn't it?

Approaching the San Siro and being overwhelmed,feeling sorry for Bam Bam being stuck up front on his own with no support,being locked in for a couple of hours at the final whistle and making sheep noises as the Italian stewards who hadn't got a clue and staying at the same hotel as the Beat which meant a very late night at the bar!

I was there with my two sons. They were mobbed by a group of crazy, gorgeous teenage girls in a city centre sports shop.
At the game the stewards seemed amused by the blow up sex doll being bounced crowd and some stupid idiot threw a glass bottle on to the pitch amongst all the fun. Shame about the football. Happy days.

Yep, made three or four days of it. Remember the central square being full of blue and white, and bumping into people I knew from around town all over the city. Kept those memories bottled right up and am glad of it as something like that probably won't happen again. Honourable mention for a chaotic night in Hollywoods (the Milan one!).

Moscow was , as you say, different. Only place where I’ve been approached in the toilet by a cop offering to sell me his jacket!

Yes, had a great couple of evenings there. You can see our ITFC St. Neots flag in the photo of Armstrong celebrating scoring his penalty.
Yes saw the St. Neots flag, we were in the photo have been trying to get a copy ever since. Seemed strange as I was brought up in St. Neots. Now live near Huntingdon.

Like you some of my best memories were not up at the San Siro.... but the afternoon around the centre and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele.. chic bars and coffee shops being by Suffolk types in Town kits... hilarious
Do you remember Sheepshanks heading over to the fans at the end to salute them!!
I remember being under floating Town kit.... high on Peroni and life!
