4 pristine tickets for the Spain game arrived today. UPS guy was great - called me when I wasn't home and agreed to drive into town to deliver them to the Indian restaurant where I was having my lunch 10 minutes later!
Seriously excited now, bring it on!
Are there any decent seating charts online for the Euros? I've come across an okay Poznan one but it was a bit too small to read the sections. Can only find a general type of Gdansk one, not one laid out with the blue/green/red/yellow for the Euros.
Lads, what is the craic with the tickets coming from Uefa. I received an email notifying me that I was successful in getting tickets with a list of all the games I'm going to. However, the email would appear to indicate that I should bring it to special tickets collection points in order to get tickets outside the stadium.
Anyone else get this email?

Thanks Junior. Judging by the shape of the stadium I think I can take it that the green side represents the side with Poznan written in the seating. Bit mad the way they have block numbers repeating themselves on both sides. There doesn't seem to be anything similar for Gdansk.
Yes the Green section is the one with Poznan written on the seating. Its pretty straightforward actually, just hover the cursor over the four sections of the stadium and it shows the yellow and blue stands are behind the goals and the green and red stands are along the side of the pitch.Quote:

Let me know if u need more details on phone at the moment...
I'm only heading for the Croatia game. Heading from Berlin on Saturday morning.

You could try this website if you are travelling on your own:Quote:

It's a website that lets you find someone to get a lift from to your destination if you share the costs. With there being so many Polish in Germany it should be no problem to get a lift from Berlin to Poznan. The only problem is that it is not 100% reliable.
We get in to Berlin on Sat and leave on Monday afternoon too.Quote:

This public service also do a cheap bus service which I know some fans have booked.

Lads ive been seeing lots about measles vaccincation etc. I wouldn't normally bother with these sort of things, but on the slight chance it could ruin the trip - and its free in england :D - im thinking of getting it done.
But what im wondering is the 6 *****s as we used to call them not the MMR vaccination? And the BCG was for TB? I thought if you got the vaccination once for these things you are fine, but a doctor was saying at home thats not the case.

That said I doubt measles recognises borders and it could potentially go viral.
no they reckon its on the border of west poland, again we aren't too close to that but there was a warning from home as well about it. It spreads easy through a cough and what not so if a load of people in the same place it could spread quite quickly.
i suppose no harm in getting it to be on the safe side, would be an awful way to feck up your euros.
This reminds me of all the Irish in Korea itching and scratching with all their mosquito bites!Lol
a bit different between mosquito bites and measles benno, its not the getting sick part that bothers me but being too sick to enjoy a once in a lifetime trip is what i want to avoid.
Nothing less manly by admitting that.
Edit: ah itching, I thought you said bitching :D
We're thinking of hiring a car at Berlin airport. We're on the 6am (ish) flight from Luton on Sat 8th which arrives around 9am local time.
Trains involve too many changes and there is a bus I'm told.
Junior, those details might be a help though.
How many of ye stutts?
Junior cheers for that. I drink with the casa rebelde lad the odd time in my local I might see him later in fact. I'm never on ybig so would never check that.
Three - are we on the same flight
There's 2 of us. We are flying out an hour after you from heathrow.
Any of ye getting the train from Gdansk to Poznan after the Spain game
Am heading down on the sat, just need to book it now
We are getting an early morning train at either 4 or 5am depending on what state we are in after we beat Spain :-)Quote:

Post here if interested?
AB, they still going?
Aye, sir.
Right... Gonna get onto the other lad. As Stutts has seemingly rejected my advances.
Well, you're welcome. Either way...
Anybody taking in any non-Irish games? I suppose all the glamour games are in Ukraine or on the same day as ourselves. We're flying into Wroclaw on the 8th so we'll go to Russia v Czech Rep if tickets are handy enough. Have tried to buy them through the portal a good few times but alas....
