just been on to the FAI, the total number of applications received for the French game was 23,000 tickets and we have been allocated 8,000. They are trying to get a larger number of tickets allocated for that game. I just hope i can get a couple of tickets
hopefully the french won`t be too interested in the match and we can snap up their tickets. 23,000 applicants? how are alll these people getting to paris that weekend ?
just reading there that zidane is going to announce his international retirement today.
First post 'cos I just found this site
Just to let you all know that there has been no date announced by the FFF as to when the tickets are going on sale but normally it's 6 weeks before the game which would mean next weekend.
I'm a member of FFF and get e-mails weekly from fnac.fr (where I buy my tickets) so I'll post here as soon as I hear anything.
Also I know that this is my first post and you don't know me from Adam, but if anyone wanted to use my address here in Paris to receive tickets they could have them sent to me and I'd meet up with them on the big day.
Though if you buy them via www.fnac.fr, you can just choose to pick them up at the shop (5 in Paris) with your reservation number that they send to you via email.
Pubs are everywhere but Irish pubs are the most expensive with pints from 5 to 7euro on a Sat evening.
ptegan
Any advice for good pubs in the latin quarter, i know there are plenty and all will be packed no matter what the price thgat weekend
we are staying just off Boulv Saint Michelle in a small hotel, right up near Luxemburg Gardens, i've been there a couple of time but always with the missus so i'll be seeing a different side of paris this time hopefully with a group of 14 donegal edjits in tow.

Here's a map of the major bars on the left-bank (south of the river).
AFAIK, there aren't a whole lot of bars that stay open late on weekends. Most bars shut at 2am but you'll find the old one that stays open until 5am (Mcbrides/Corcorans/O'Sullivans).
Happy Hours are normally from 7 'til 9 or thereabouts, but they don't work on weekends.
Here is the link to the other maps of PAris for those on the right bank and up by Pigalle.
And here is a list of pubs/bars in the city which I worked on but it hasn't been updated in about 12 months. I was hoping to get something ready for the match but it's kinda too late now.
Either way, with the public transport so good and pretty cheap you can go anywhere no matter where your hotel is
Ok , folks , last year I was one of those who did not receive tickets for the Swiss game from Euroteam, but I had other tickets anyway through Ticketcorner so i got in.
This year the french game looks like there is going to be overwhelming demand.
i have bought tickets through these guys (below) and they have guaranteed me that they will have them for me . fair enough price too....70 Euro for cat1 ticket.
They even said they might be able to get me into the Irish end.
Anyway here is the link.
I am not an agent for these guys so don't blame me if you are not successful or lose cash with them

Very interesting - this does not appear to be a tout site - Euroteam were touts who sell tickets for events at a high price and then try and buy them for less and if they can't just tell the punters to FO.
However strange that fnac and the French Football Federation have not started selling our game yet. These are the normal sources for french home tickets.
Still no harm in booking.
Delivery to Ireland is €16.50 btw which is a bit steep but I doubt if anyone will complain.
No harm in booking this as I'm sure there will be plenty of takers if you're stuck with extras.
Thanks Barnabee for passing on that info .. I'd have a quick gander at this before buying these tickets ..

I just booked 5 tickets myself at €60 each which appear to be the second most expensive seats so hopefully we will have a decent view of the game. They don't appear to be a tout so here's hoping.
Maybe if so many Irish people booked from that site within a certain time you'd get seats in or around the same area. A bunch of Irish together can only be a good thing and boost the atmosphere.
1) the prices are fair
2) they have promised the tickets and give you a way of tracking your tickets and shipment
3) having spoken to them they seem honest and their terms and conditions are the same for any concert etc...standard but fair.
4)I was on the site last week and booked my tickets when there was availability, then the option disappeared from the site so I called them to find out what was wrong, he said they had no more of an allocation for the game but did say they were getting a further allocation today , and true to his word this has appeared on their website. Since this morning this allocation has been dwindling since as now their seems to be less available in the diferent categories.
This would suggest that they are not a tout , they have been allotted a certain number of tickets from FFR to sell and when these run out the option to book them will disappear.
Those who were caught out by Euroteam last year will have noticed that Euroteam accepted the option to buy ticktets fom their site right up to the day of the game.....pure chancers. they subsequently did not deliver.
As I said best of luck , but don't blame me if it goes t1ts up.
they now only have cat 4 and cat 5 left
Just ordered some catogary 2 ticket's ten minute's ago, will be tracking dhl now until they do show up.
Its crazy to see people be what society wants them to be but not me.
just saw the thread.... serves me right for not going online at work more
cat 4 tickets 30e and 13.50e postage
lest keep our fingers crossed
good luck people

Gents, below is a message I got from Mosaic today.
Just to let you know I am a normal punter just looking for tickets who offered my services of posting their links on a few Irish soccer boards. They thought i was some kind of marketing company or something.
Either way they appear to still have a few tickets available for cat 4 on their site.

Just bagged a couple of tickets from the Mosaic site. Euro 30 each and 13.50 delivery charge to Sussex.
Interestingly the confirmation e-mail states.......
Your credit card payment has been accepted and your order is being processed. Your account will only be debited once your tickets are effectively purchased (within a four-day maximum lap). Mosaico World will send you an e-mail to confirm the booking of your tickets and the sending of your Event Pass.
This suggests to me Mosaic haven't actually got the tickets themselves yet and need to source them before debiting me.
Normally if the FFF aren't selling the tickets on their site then not one else has them to sell, even if they are sure to have them to sell.
