Although it didn’t run through my mind at the time, Joey Ramone had it down when he sang “I wanna be sedated”. I’m not a fan of long trips home anyway; having to trundle home after a Blues defeat is harder – but the idea of at least a day travelling home after a defeat… well, no-one said this trip was going to be easy.

With many thanks to fellow hardy travellers on the coach Danny and Connor, I have some more pics of Braga to share with you today.

As those of you who follow the blog will know, I (along with sixty three other Blues fans) decided to undertake possibly the most insane journey of our lives and get the coach to Braga and back. Over two and half thousand road miles, pretty much three days travelling to watch Blues capitulate in Portugal – sounds about right, doesn’t it?

With Blues now really needing a result in Braga to fulfil their dreams of qualification for the knockout rounds, I thought it would be worth posting a reminder of how you can get there.
