If you're on the Ryanair flight from Stansted back you can ring them up and they'll put you on the flight the following morning. Just have a night of boozing in the airport. Is it definitely 24 hour there?

As previously posted the Official German Fans club want to meet up before the game in Stuttgart and have arranged a beer garden for the occasion.
Ansgar Marx, the local rep, has sent me the following details of the arrangements of the meet location which is only 200m from the stadium
Hi to all Irish football fans!
In the course of the international football match Germany vs. Ireland on September 2nd, 2006, the fanclub of the german national football team has organized a meeting of fans, which will take place at:
Station - Gastronomie Daferner (Gastronomy of the VFL Stuttgart)
Mercedesstrasse 90
Suttgart
www.stadion-gastronomie.de (http://www.stadion-gastronomie.de/)
The typical german beergarden is located next door to the Mercedes Museum, about 200m away from the stadion. A BBQ with freshly grilled meat as well as local beer will be provided for you guys as well. Besides, we contracted a DJ, who will also be happy to play some of your irish CD's! A football ground including a big screen is situated next to the beer garden, so everybody without tickets will also have a possibility to watch the match.
The party starts from 3 p.m. (15:00) on!
We hope you guys are all going to join us and we're very looking forward to an afternoon of convivial drinking! :-)
Greetings from Germany & See you!!!

A bit of grub and a fill of beer just 220m from the stadium..............sure ya couldn't bate it with a stick!:D

As there owned by Ibis no doubt not very central but rang them and said beside metro station and takes 4 stops to city centre.
Etap Hotel Stuttgart City
Siemensstrasse 28

Anybody know of anything else about it?
Also, not bad. It is beside a gas station (possibily to buy drinks very late) and beside Club Prag, a disco (http://www.club-prag.de/)

Uwe,

Just checked their webiste. Perfectly situated to the S-Bahn, you get very qucik to the stadium. Would take about 10 minutes into the city centre by the S-Bahn. I t takes longer to get there by taxi. Obertürkheim is on the outskirts of Stuttgart, so it will be not so lively. As i live in the south of Stuttgart, I´m not sure if they are good pubs in the Obertürkheim are. Hope this helps a bit.

Frankfurt Airport to Stuttgart is far more regular than that. trains depart 7.54, 8.54, 9.20, 9.54, 10.54, 11.20 etc takes just over an hour.
The station is in the airport, I'd suggest going straight there and checking out the next train the Stuttgart.
www.bahn.de has the timetable.
N oreal idea re the fryup but an Irish bar in Stuttgart is a bette rbet than Frankfurt airport.
