I'm thinking of a place with great beaches, fine local cuisine, bustling nightlife, but more importantly for this trip some good quality Football.
How about Shields?
Bring a torch though for night games... no lights

I've done Wroclaw and Krakow. Krakow better but just. Going to Gdansk soon so looking forward to thatI fancy Poland. Cheap, easy to get to and should be canny lively.
What's it like for getting tickets?
Dusseldorf is a canny shout, as you say there's plenty of teams. What's travel, digs, nightlife like?Just went to Madrid last week. Loads of clubs in and around it. Real, Atletico, Rayo Vallecano, Leganes, Getafe and Alcoron.
Done Krakow and saw both Krakow teams. Done Wroclaw which was a great city but only had one team.
Dusseldorf was also very good, done Dortmund, Koln, BMG and Schalke. Also got Fortuna, RW Essen, Bochum, Leverkusen and Bochum on the doorstep.
Nightlife mint but expensive compared to Krakow. Out of the 2 I'd pick Krakow anyday of the week.Dusseldorf is a canny shout, as you say there's plenty of teams. What's travel, digs, nightlife like?
Porto worth it, Guimaraes & Braga both nearby as well.
I went there earlier this year, great place and ended up watching Inter beat Atalanta 7-1....but there is nowhere to drink, few decent clubs on the weekend but thats it, was really surprisedMilan

Done Hamburg for my stag do last year would have prefered to see St Pauli they were away the weekend we went. Getting tickets is relatively easy you just register on the official HSV site and order them from there worked out around £15 a ticket. Standard of football wasn't great maybe championship standard, but the atmosphere and experience before and after is second to none over there. .. I was depressed when I came back and done the palace game at home the next week thinking about it.....Hamburg is a good stop and you have Hamburg and St Pauli.
Another vote for Lille tremendous atmopshere and very easy to get to on Eurostar.Lille is brilliant, easy to get to, the ground is like a mini Allianz Arena and has a great atmosphere. City centre is lovely and close to the Belgian border.

Berlin, Lisbon, Milan, Rome, Budapest, Krakow, Prague will all be fine regardless of when you go as long as it's not intl week. Standard of football will vary wildly but if you're like me you probably won't be too arsed about that.
Berlin - big stadium, good standard of football, and one of my favourite cities anywhere.
Edit - if you're into the Belgian style of beer, Bruges might be a good bet. Not sure how easy it is to get tickets though
