Grim Jim Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I'm in Mannheim for a day and a half ☹️ I'm sure we'll find something, even a sports bar to watch a game or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolhibby Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Flying out for the opener. EasyJet from Gatwick. Two nights in Munich. Back home Saturday, work Monday. Fly to Düsseldorf on Tuesday. Eurowings from Heathrow, two nights in Cologne. Depending on if I get tickets for other games in the Rhur we’re going to stay in Bochum and Düsseldorf before heading to Stuttgart for two nights. If I don’t get tickets, we are going to head to Nuremberg for a couple of nights before heading to Stuttgart. Fly back to Heathrow on the Monday. Hopefully having booked our flights for the last 16. Cannot wait! J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich NATA Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 I assumed Munich and Cologne would be expensive and problematic to get accommodation, but f**k me Stuttgart's off the scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice littel town though from what I've heard. Never been there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich NATA Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) The 2nd round STARTS the weekend after Stuttgart/Hungary. For us, I believe it would be one of these... 1 JULY - DORTMUND 2 JULY - BERLIN 3 JULY - COLOGNE, FRANKFURT or MUNICH After Stuttgart/Hungary, how are you's gonna play it?

It'll be fine. We were in Mannheim for the Scotland B match about 20 years ago and had a good night. Population 300'000 so it's a fairly big city. Just do some homework on where's good to go.

In case anyone thinking of booking this is not accurate. If we win the group or are 2nd. We would play on Saturday the 29th in either Berlin (2nd in group) or Dortmund if (1st in group! . If we are one of the best third qualifiers its then all over the place. Edited January 3 by macwomble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I f*cked up. I had it all written down correctly, but when I posted on here I accidently listed 1st 2nd and 3rd positions as 1st 2nd and 3rd of July That said, I was correct in saying the 2nd round doesn't start until the weekend AFTER Stuttgart/Hungary (there are no matches during 'the working week' following the Hungary match).

Rich NATA Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 So, back to the 2nd round (starting 6 days after Stuttgart/Hungary). How are you's gonna play it? Flying home and then back out? Already committing to staying over there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goozay Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I'll have been in Germany since Thursday 13 June, so definitely heading home on Monday 24 June, which is the day after the Hungary game. If we're in the last 16, I'll probably be absolutely buzzing and so will look to head back to Germany for that game, but currently recognise I'd have been pretty fortunate to get to all three group games. TL:DR head home, then back out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TL:DR head home, then back out Exactly the same for me. Will have been in Germany from the 12th to 25th June so will be coming home. Same as you if we qualify i will try my best to fly back even if only for the game. If we were to win that...??? then the problems really begin. 😅😳😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrelhumper Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 If we win the first knock out game then a few of us will have some juggling to do. Thankfully work and missus are fairly understanding. Unsure how i explain the semi final and final though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we have never had to bother after the group stages before so if we can get through it will bring a whole new challenge(a welcome one) to our support in managing to get to the next game(s). Would be a problem for me and i am sure many others but a nice problem all the same. 😳🤔😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
