Not the worst draw,a good draw actually.Theres huge pressure on Domenech and i think is Ribery still injured?Anyway we shouldnt fear them and ive real hope we can sneak through.

I assume this will be in Paris, yeah? Do they ever play games elsewhere?

They played the Faroes in Guingamp; the other group games were in the Stade. I'd say it's 99.9999999% certainly in the Stade.

The last France game is linked from the general thread here. Don't see the point reviving it, but it's linked and available for any info. I think this format is much easier for finding info, TBH.

They may not post to Ireland this time.

French do a massive public sale so no problem getting tickets for the home end but you may need a French address or to buy them in France over the counter.

French 8pm news.

The French trainer just said "irlande sont l'equipe d'angleterre bis ..." meaning that "Ireland are the English B-side"

Here are the 3 main ticket selling sites :

Certainly with FNAC you can pick them up in the store with the credit card you used to purchase them as ID.

As its a Wednesday night I think the game will either kick off at 8pm or 9pm local time. Dont think it has been confirmed but thats a pretty reasonable guess.

Its on the Metro - dead easy - can get there from all regions. Just be sensible and leave plenty of time.

The stadium is 10 minutes from Gare de Nord on the RER-B (train) and 12 minutes from Chatelet also on the RER-B.

You can find exact instructions from here (http://paul.egan.neuf.fr/stadium.htm)

I really hate to pester you, but do you know if there is any parking nearby? We are planning on flying in to quite a distant airport and hiring a car and driving like 300 miles to Paris on matchday but I don't know what the story is with parking. There doesn't seem to be anything on google maps.
