Hopefully theres more trains being put on from Poznan to Gdansk and back again when the tournament comes around.
Spain tickets on portal

As for Spain, not so sure we'll be in the majority there, because there never seems to be Spain tickets up for our match or matches against the other two sides in the group.
How are folk getting across Poland between the Spain and Italy games ?
Maybe not but I reckon that is largely down to neutrals rather than Spanish fans who dont traditionally travel in large numbers. Im sure with our general all round super-cool friendliness we will have the natives on side for that one!Quote:

I nearly picked up a €70 Cat 2 Italy ticket there (€97 with crazy fees included). I had given my own address on registration but was about the use the girlfriend's credit card. I went in to see if there was anywhere I could add her billing details but there doesn't seem to be. Would my own address with her credit card number, etc. work? Think it's the first time I've seen a Cat 2 Ireland ticket.
Also, it's really stupid that it gives you a drop down box where you can select as many as four tickets but then tells you that they don't have the required amount. By the time I've checked 4, 3, and 2 they're often gone. I suppose I should just be greedy and get one for myself straight away.
I had a wee go at that one too! yes its the first non-CAT1 for italy i've seen. I did pick up 4 cat2 spain a few weeks ago, such luck!
Likewise I tried 4,3,2 first with no success, terribly thought out website so it is! as for the CC details, I think it works ok to stick in some one elses card details even if its not at your address
Yeah it's beyond belief that the obvious glitches haven't been fixed up yet. You really struck gold with the Spain tickets. The more you get at the one time the less administration fees too.
Ireland v Croatia category 1 on the portal now
Gone already
Promoting their availability will ensure they're gone.
My experience on using portals is, if you're not at the payment process within roughly 30 seconds of limited supply tickets being made available, you can forget it. You have to sit and watch it like a hawk for up to several hours at a time to get any joy. And wear out the "Refresh" button.
not necessarily ;)Quote:

Not staying for all 3, arriving in Gdansk the 13th. staying there 4 nights near the beach, happy days
Just the one night but we'll probably regret it as it seems like a nice spot. We'll be going to Berlin for a couple of nights in between Poznan and Gdansk as it's only a 3hr drive from Poznan. Hitting Warsaw for a couple of nights after Gdansk.Quote:

IRL-ITA up there now and have been for a nice while.

Even better if you can buy a couple of matches together.Quote:

But I also think if you have bought tickets in two separate single transactions, there is reasonable chance they will also be together. Tickets havent been printed yet so presumably exact seat allocations will only be made by UEFA in the coming months.Quote:

Irish fans, Irish food, Irish music. "A 110% Irish experience". God forbid you might actually want to mingle with other fans or experience a bit of Polish culture.
Sounds like a glorified Paddys day in Poland in mid June. Not for this Irish fan.
Most of them don't want a different experience.

some good news on the ticket front..

If you buy 4 tickets for a match from the UEFA portal, can you still buy some more if it reappears from the same account?
nah its 4 per account per match. so get a friend to create an account. you can interchange credit cards between accounts though, so you can let some one else create an account and use your credit card for purchasing
Nice one, thanks for that.
Actually, does that mean if you can only buy, say, 2 in the one transaction, that you can come back and buy 2 more from the same account later on? Basically, as long as you don't exceed 4 in total for the one match?
That's okay, I found the rules & regulations on the UEFA site.
There's been sweet fa on the portal this week (during work hours anyway :))
FAI twitter says emails from UEFA due to start arriving today. fingers crossed!
