ROAD LESS TRAVELLED FOR FANS...

THERE were some spectacular sights in Bodo this week: the Northern Lights were so good they even had local jaws on the floor, while one City fan who arrived without a ticket for the Champions League managed to clamber up a tree outside the stadium to watch his team, writes Simon Bajkowski.

It is difficult to beat natural wonders, but mankind certainly tries.

City supporters may not have seen it all but, in their fifteenth consecutive season in the Champions League, there can’t be much left.

Their travels have taken them from Amsterdam to Zermatt and the 2023 final in Istanbul saw them finally crowned winners of the most prestigious competition in European club football.

Some supporters felt like that was enough for them at that point, that crowning moment a fitting time to celebrate all the memories they had made travelling to watch City.

For many more though, the thrill of watching their football team all over Europe with new friends, old friends, and loved ones is too addictive to stop.
