Hello, I am Vlad, a Romanian football collector of tickets and programmes. As I was digging through my favorite team's history I found that Steaua Bucharest played a friendly match in Swansea in 2002. Since I collect all the international matches played by my team I was wondering if somebody might still have a ticket stub from that match. I do have the programme of the game, a black programme entitled "The Swan".
If anybody might still have the ticket stub from Swansea-Steaua 0-1 match back in 2002, I would be delighted to trade for it. I can offer in exchange the video matches on DVD of Swansea vs Petrolul Ploiesti, and memorabilia (ticket and programme) from the match played in Romania.
Looking forward for a reply and a help from a fellow football collector,
Thank you in advance,
Vlad

Hello, thank you very much for the information.
I might have heard this information before, no worries if tickets were not printed. It is in the end just a friendly game. But I like to have memorabilia from the international game.
Swansea's story is amazing and I am very happy to be in contact with people who saved their club. I actually made 2 friends on this forum when you trashed Petrolul.
Keep in touch, I will wait for some further info (if possible) for the ticket stubs:) Pay at the gate sounds pretty possible for a pre season friendly. | | | |

If my memory is correct I'm fairly sure tickets were printed for this match. Perhaps not for the terraced areas, but certainly for the seats. |  | | |

Then my hopes are back up for somebody who might find one that's not needed in one of the house's drawers. Thank you very much Skipthejack! | | | |

We were good enough to play in the football league back then, it very much depends on how quality you would like your sh it. |  |

Don't have a stub sorry but remember the game albeit not sure on the result.
Remember Steaua battering us and giving us a footballing lesson that day even though I remember the game as finishing 1-0 to Steaua. |  |

If only you had asked last month.
I moved out of my parents house and this ticket was pinned to my childhood dartboard next to the one I had for the friendly against Chelsea. I threw both out.
Sorry! |  | | |

Oh well, at least two news emerge out of this:
1. There were printed tickets for the match.
2. There might be another impaled ticket somewhere:) As an old song said, KEEP HOPE ALIVE :) | | | |

There were definitely no tickets printed. It was the same price throughout the stadium. So I went in the centre stand for a change, hadn't been there for years. I think it was a fiver throughout. The game finished 0-0 if I remember. Near the end of the game a ball sat up to Michael Howard in the 8 yard box and he cleared the roof of the East Stand and probably the Grand Theatre. | | | |

I thought we lost 1-0 to a late goal.
I'm pretty sure there were tickets printed for the East Stand (because I remember sitting in my usual seat, which never happened unless I bought a ticket in advance), although there would have been pay-on-the-gate as well. | | | |

There were some tickets printed - definitely.
The game finished 0-1 with a goal from Adrian Neaga deciding it. He scored after Roger (who had kept us in it until then) fluffed a simple catch and he put it past him. |  | | |

Fair enuf, all I can remember as mentioned was Howard's shot.
Ironic Freestone had a blinder as his form that season ahead was one of the factors that nearly sent us to the conference. Blessing he got injured and Cutler came in.
Before anyone says anything, I was a huge Roger fan and he was superb in all the previous seasons prior. | | | |

I remember following the final whistle one of the Steau defenders jumped into the North Bank and started hugging loads of fans. Don't know if he thought it was the away end or something but it was bizarre. |  |

Perhaps he was looking to claim asylum, probably washing cars for a living down the Hafod nowadays | |

Just a reminder of my old message, perhaps this time somebody with a ticket stub left somewhere might see it.
By the way, in the case in which anybody collects tickets of Swansea and has the friendly ticket against Steaua Bucharest from 2002, is there any chance I could have a scan of the ticket?
Thank you very much in advance,

I can offer any memorabilia needed from the matches against Petrolul Ploiesti from last year plus the two matches recorded on DVD in both Romanian and Welsh.
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Vlad
