i agree , if i cant get an away end ticket then i'll get a home end one, not travelling over there to miss out !!
Travel Agents do not get tickets from the FAI apart from Ray Treacy who gets a limited allocation being the official travel agent.Quote:

I haven't heard of any trouble in previous games but not everything gets widely reported. Let's hope their geography is sound and they appreciate that the English morons are a million miles away from us. I'll take a ticket anywhere and we will show the locals that we want to party with them and not inspite of them. Counting the days!Quote:

The category is "Irish Section". The venue and the price is TBC (to be confirmed). :confused:
Application to be returned by 22nd June and "successful applicants will be notified of the number and price of ticket/s allocated in due course"

flights still available on expedia for about 210 inc all taxes and charges
dublin-amsterdam-vienna
and prague-paris-dublin
£141.40 is the price given. i can't get cheaper, so if you still have no travel booked this is probably best. i'm still not sure if i can go though, which is why i have nothing booked yet and am still looking.
(out friday, arrive 19:45, close enough to bratislava and depart 16:20 thursday back 22:05 in dublin)

err... hostelworld.com has places for about 30 per person per night in en-suite twin rooms. only about 18 for dorm rooms. now there were cheaper a while back, but still a few beds about that site for the desperate (and the cheapskate students among us ;) )Quote:

Slovakia confirm venue for Euro 2008 qualifier
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------
Date: Tuesday, 12 June 2007 Section: International
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------
The Slovak Football Federation has confirmed that the Euro 2008 qualifier between Slovakia and the Republic of Ireland on September 8 will take place in Bratislava. The kick-off time will be confirmed at a later date.
The match has been fixed for the Slovan Stadion, Tehelnι Pole, Bratislava, and, under UEFA regulations, the FAI will receive a ticket allocation of 2,500 tickets which represents 10 per cent of the stadium s capacity for this game.
Because of the small allocation the FAI regrets that it will be unable to take orders from non-FAI block booker account holders for this game
Any idea when tickets will go on sale to Slovakian fans? Also, anyone know if there is a Slovakian ticketmaster we could hi-jack, like the Germany game?

I booked months ago after reading the description given on this website; http://www.bratislavahotels.com/bratislava-hotel-ibis, which claims they do 'single/double/twin' rooms. But after emailing them to request a twin room for me and my mate during our stay, i got a reply saying they only have double beds.
Its too late to book anywhere else now and i dont particulary fancy sharing a bed with my mate for issues of comfort more than anything else. Looks like the old air bed will be joining me on this trip.
You just presuming or has he jumped out of the closet?Quote:

i think most hotels in europe normally have doubles which are 2 singles pushed together, but i know that theres a warning on our confirmation that some double rooms have been booked and to be prepared for this as most of the bratislava hotels are booked solid for that weekend so its a case of first one in gets the bed!!! :D
Sorry lads, i know this is a little naive but how do i get into the summary of this thread?? I just need info on flights and accomodation for the game. By the looks of it, accommodation in bratislava is very hard to get at this stage??
