great info here. �44 in a taxi from the airport or a 40 minute train journey to my hotel (holiday inn) that costs �2.90. I know my choice

Trains s1 and s2 will bring you from the airport to the main station in the city centre (stuttgart Hauptbahnhof).

Train s1 will then bring you from the main central station to the Gottlieb Daimler stadion stop which as the name suggests is the ground.

re: the application forms - has anyone actually received one? or even a confirmation of request?

Paulie

12/05/2006, 4:03 PM

The closing date for the receipt of requests for application forms is not for another couple of weeks. I doubt very much if they will be sending out any forms before that deadline. They don't acknowledge the receipt of applications but if you want to make sure give them a ring to see if they got your request.

Flying into Karsruhe Baden on friday evening. From what know suttgard is about 100km away, anyone else flyin in there aswell and have any ideas. Was thinkin bout car hire or the train from in baden itself, probably work out the same pricewise. Any suggestions?Me & Beavis are going the same way. We'll just get a train to Stuttgart. It's cheap; somethin like �15 for the journey which takes a couple of hours I believe so perfect for cannage too.

Just thought I'd throw this link up, it's the German FAs online ticketshop. Tickets may or may not be onsale to non fan club memebers at some stage, bearing in mind a fan club membership is only 20 euro anyhow.

Germany v Ireland Tickets on Sale. These went on sale today.

You need to register on the site and have contact details in Germany (possibly a Mainland europe one, might do it) and it looks like you can order up to 8.

http://www.eventim.de/cgi-bin/TINFO.DLL?id=EVE_NO_SESSION&fun=TSearch&doc=funktion%2Ffun_suc&key=dfb

IMPORTANT: Junior does not have the above, so would be grateful if someone is ordering some they can order some extra for me and my pals as a thankyou for providing the above info!! I can transfer money etc... no probs.

I think Section 61 is usually the away section (as told to me by a Stuttgart fan) but I cannot confirm this - probably best trying to get tix as near to that section as possible.

you can do it if youre not in germany but it costs about 40 euro extra!

I tried that but iot wouldn't work (mind you my German isn't the best!) Did you do an order?

Paulie

08/06/2006, 2:58 PM

Fair play Junior. I was able to go in and book 4 of the �50 tickets. It took me ages as I was cutting and pasting the text off the site into a translation website to make sure I was doing the right thing but I got it eventually. One of the lads in work here just got 6 tickets a few minutes ago and they had posted up on the site, in English, that the tickets are not for Irish Supporters and that Irish people should apply to the FAI. However it still let him go in and purchase them. Anyway we have printed confirmation of our orders so hopefully we'll be ok

Junior

08/06/2006, 3:23 PM

did you use Irish addresses??

Junior

08/06/2006, 3:38 PM

I've just done an order for 4 tix with a UK adddress and eventually it seemed to go through ok.

Loadedscream

08/06/2006, 3:39 PM

I booked two tickets, used irish address and paid the ridiculous �40 handling charge for world postage...all went through without a hitch got e-mailed confirmation, didnt notice the note about the FAI before I bought though, If it comes to it maybe I could say I'm a german supporter living in Ireland!!!

Booked 8 and accepted but before confirmation a splashscreen appeared warning these tickets are not for Ireland fans but I was using a german address and it went through with confirmation email received.

same warning on french ticket website for oct '04 game and there were no issues getting tickets or on the night

is it possible though that we may end up getting allocated enough tickets for Irish end to satisfy demand?

Possibly. I've opted for the 25euro tickets, so If I am lucky enough to get FAI tickets, I can offload these ones as they are cheap or just swallow the cost.

i heard ticket details would be given to FAI on 15th June so forms will probably follow soon after

got stung with the 40 euro surcharge also - this could be another french job! i can imagine a lot of irish buying these tickets in the coming days - german fans are probably just concerning themselves with world cup tkts at moment.

what section did yous lads get allocated? think im 33

Got a German collegue in work to buy four �35 tickets and got them sent to his address in Germany.

I got that as well, but when I tranlsated it, it says something about sports events, formula 1 etc, 1 to 2 weeks before???

Not sure if this means they won't be despatched until nearer the event.

Yeah I got it as well. My understanding of it is the same as yours, that the tickets will be delivered a week or two before the game.

Just been told that my 8 tickets arrived this morning, just after 9am, via DHL at the German address.

They are for Block 35, directly behind the goal but in the upper section.

Please note there is no kick off time stated on the tickets
