I went for covered on the basis that I'm as blind as a bat so with the covered section being along the side of the pitch I'll actually get to see the game.

I understand from you e-mail that you want to leave Bologna at 13.30 and at the end of the match, around 21.30/22.00, leave Serravalle which means arriving in Bologna for approx 23.00/23.30, this means having the bus at disposal for a total of 10 hours which exceed of 2 hrs the given rate of Euro 590 (pls see my first e-mail dated Sept, 26th).

In order to leave things like they are at the moment, we need to postpone the pick-up in Bologna (Hotel University) at 15.30, considering the driving distance from Bologna to Serravalle (San Marino) is approx 1,30/45 minutes.

Otherwise having the bus at disposal for 10 hours, from 13.30 to 23.30, from/to Bologna, cost Euro 720 (Euro 65 is the cost of each additional night hour).

Please advise how you want to deal with this, just consider that for the moment service is confirmed as follows:

Date Pick Up Meeting Place Passengers' Name Pax Service and/or price note Type of service Itinerary / Drop Off Place (if different from Meeting Place) Drop Off Vehicle Performance File Number Totale
7-Feb-07 15.30 BO Htl University - Via Mentana, 7 Liam Quirk 25 Full Day Disposal Serravalle (San Marino), near the Football Stadium 21.30 24/28 Bus € 590,00
Total 10% VAT Included € 590,00

In case you want to change the reservation (from 13.30 until 23.30) we need then to receive a new authorization form for the correct amount of Euro 720, please advise if you want me to send you a new authorization form.

Kindest regards
Michele

Recieved this e-mail today. By the looks of it we're not going to have much time in San Marino itself.:( Although I have been looking on the net and there doesn't seem to be much in the way of bars/restaurnts there anyway. So it might work out for the best.
I'm not too keen on paying the extra 65 euro an hour, so I think we'll have to go with the 3.30pm departure from Bologna. Arrive Serravelle approx. 6pm.

3.30 sounds fine by me. Scottish mate said there is not much in San Marino to see anyway.

For anyone heading over a bit early, 5th Febraury (Monday before match) is the national holiday - St Agatha's Day. Celebrates their freedom from the last person who tried to conquer them nearly 300 years ago.

Found an interesting book on amazon about the place - has a small travel section on the country basically, together with a look at the seven countries featured and what makes them what they are. Came in the post today; looks a helpful read. Also covers the Vatican, for anyone thinking of heading to Rome for the weekend.

on an unrelated note, this should be made compulsory reading for all international fans prior to watching any game involving liechtenstein:

Aer Lingus are doing direct flights into Venice. Go out Monday and return either Thursday or Friday. Flights are approx. �75 at the moment and a train down to Rimini is about �25 e.w.
Anybody thinking of travelling this way..............see Venice for a couple of days before and after the game.
Anyone know whether it's difficult to get into Venice from the airport.
Reckon it would be an interesting train journey along the coast to Rimini!

A couple of us are staying the Ambienthotels Villa Adriatica Hotel (http://www.villaadriatica.it/) in Rimini. �80 for a twin room with breakfast. Near the station.

Any more info. on buses from Rimini to Serraville?

I notice travel agents are beginning to advertise their trips. Seems they are staying in Rimini (2 night trip circa e500). Kick off 1800 according to their flyer but I don't see the kick off time confirmed on the FAI or San Marino site yet.

Apparently you should be able to ring the FAI and get tickets direct - the full allocation's not going to be taken. That's what I heard off UCD when I tried too late to book tickets.

I just got off the phone with the FAI ticket office. People will know if they got their full allocation in the next few days. He said that there shouldn't be a problem though. There mustn't be that many going. Hardly surprising I suppose, a midweek fixture to the group minnows in the cold of February is going to put a lot of people off. Personally, I reckon it'll be great craic!

Can't wait myself, in the space of 5 days I'll have visited Milan, Bologna, Rimini and San Marino. Match tickets paid for, just awaiting delivery. Really looking forward to it

Nice one. I'm going via Cardiff as I'll be at the Ireland V Wales rugby match the previous Sunday. Not quite as cosmopolitan as Milan I know but it'll be a lot of fun!

I found a pub in San Marino. It was harder than you might think.
