Well spotted mate Could not believe it when my name came up on the scoreboard Rubbish timing , they should have done it at the start of half time not the end. I had to go to 'the nearest steward' who knew nothing and passed me on to another one who then took me to a supervisor in the old tunnel - corner of North and West Stand - who took all our names and checked ticket details all this after the game had re-started. Then we had to go to East Stand reception after the game. I said it had better be worth it since I was off for a few post match beers. I expected to get a voucher for flights to the place of my choice but then saw that the envelopes with your name on already had the destination. The 2 in front of me got Majorca and Larnaca (?) - I whispered to mate that if they gave me Turkey I would have to turn it down !! In the event I got Crete. It seems ok on the face of it - 2 free flights to Crete from Leeds Bradford , got to take before March 2014, can't go in June,july or August, no Bank Holidays. Not for sale or transferable. Get 10kgs of hand luggage but need to pay for anything in the hold.
