loads of tour companies will do them, have a look in the back, of "four four two" or "when saturday comes" magazines.

you will be lucky for that particular game though, if you wanted tickets for madrid vs a random bottom half team you can pretty much turn up on the day. same for barca, they rarely sell out the full 90,000 unless its a big game.

i think you can get tickets for both teams through their websites too.

Cheers, yeah kind of thought that game will be hard to get tickets but wondered if any one had any good places they have used before.I'll give the mags a try.

Good luck but I hope your wallet's been at the pies recently!

It will probably be harder than ever this season due to the recent histrionics but IIRC, they have mentioned on Sky coverage that tickets from the touts go for something daft like 1000 Euros each. I suppose the one thing in your favour is if the UK vendors are getting corporate seats to sell on, or due to current ecopnomic conditions a few more socios are tempted to watch the telly and pocket the dosh.
Even then I bet you're looking at anywhere from £250-£500 each and possibly north.

Maybe not the best advice but me and a couple of mates bought some off a tout outside the Nou Camp probably 3 years ago now.

Cost us 200 euro each. Stuck in the throat a bit at the time but the whole experience was worth the money. Biggest problem was we were in different parts of the ground....

Given the interest there will be in this new Real dream team vs. the current awesome Barca team I'd expect touts to really try and make a killing.

^^^^ Spot on.....I'd say in the £400 to £500 region from a tout at the moment.....

Yeah thought they would be expensive, dont really want to go there and hope to get them off a tout. To be honest only want to go see it because of the teams they both have again.

keep an eye on their website for ticket details.
i have also heard people turn upo a day or two early and get tickets from the box in the stadium. because its 90000 capacity, so many people just turn up on the day, contact the club for more details but there should be no need to line touts pockets.
