    Are you still thinking of going this route buddy? You can get that flight for about a tenner on Sky Europe's website at the moment. Might be worth booking at that price even if your still undecided

A mate in Tbilisi yesterday confirmed it has been upgraded but Wikipedia is ahead of the game!

    Its pretty centrally located - just a walk across the river from the main part of town.
    Is it accross from the Marriot's street, because that's where I found it on Google Earth.

    Hi guys,

    Havent been on for a few weeks. The DFA website says that visas are not required for georgia or Montenegro, but a friend says that they are required for Georgia. Can anyone clarify? Time to get these things sorted with only about 9 weeks i reckon to go.

    You no longer need a visa for Georgia. Previously they issued them at the airport but that was abolished a few years ago.

    Has anybody received an application form for tickets for this match yet? They are normally sent out around now if i recall correctly, or am I wrong?

    Less than 2 months to go!

    Do we not have the same time as Greenwich Mean Time. Since when are we an hour ahead of them considering we are to the west of london.

    Yeah, thats a mistake! Irish time is the same as GMT.
    Thanks for the info mypost. Pretty much confirms that those of us leaving Georgia on the Sunday AM need not bother with a hotel room on the night of the match.

    We're only on GMT from October to March, when the clocks change. The rest of the year, we're GMT+1. The time on this site always states it at the bottom of the page.

    Got the application form in the post yesterday. There is a choice between €37 tickets and €22 tickets. I am going to go for the cheaper on this one I think.

    There was a mention on the Tartan Army messageboard along the same lines that if you are only transiting it is not required however the couple subsequently had a lot of hassle at the airport as they didnt have a visa even though they didnt intend leaving the airport.

    Check with Russian embassy and get it confirmed

    Got mine today, any idea what the difference is between the 2 apart from E15, Upper level lower level, bare concrete unpainted, bare concrete painted. ??

    Probably go E37, there is a running track so you need half decent seats otherwise you see damn all
