frigmeister Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Does anyone know anything about the stadium's facilities, outside and in? I've tried searching online but there doesn't seem to be a great deal of information about the stadium. If they have terrible catering inside the stadium and run out of food & drink before half time, it will be great - just like being at Hampden. The thing is, with the stadium being out in the middle of nowhere, is the expectation just to turn up 20 mins before the game and go straight into the stadium? I don't expect the Gibraltar FA will put on anything special for us but does anyone know if there is likely to be anything happening at the ground before the game? It would be a shame not to put all the open space around the stadium to some use in the hours leading up to kick off. Maybe the Ireland fans will be able to update us after they've been in September but if anyone knows anything about the stadium, please do share.

scottincarlisle Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 There was a post a while back saying there would be a fan park without alcohol outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannibal smith Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I was there at Euro 2004 for 3 games. We made the mistake of going out early assuming there would be facilities, bars etc. there was nothing around the stadium and the catering inside the stadium was ok but nothing special. Think it was a standard menu for all the stadiums at Euro 2004though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washboarder Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 last time i was there 2004 spain v russia the beer was non alcoholic in the kiosk, as previous posters stated make sure ur scranned up and a wee carryoot. remember portugal is quite religious and with the game being on a sunday therefore maybe slightly different rules to adhere to.

SheepieTartanArmy Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 What do you think the local police force would be lyk with taking a carry out close to the stadium. Don't want to upset them especially if they're religious as anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
