Same deal as always.
General sh*te talk in this thread.
Bars, meet-ups, touristy stuff, etc.

Leaves the other one for chat about accommodation and travel.

With Bordeaux and Lille being smaller and having city centre areas, reckon those will be a bit like and Posnan and Gdansk the last time. Paris is obviously going to bit different (as was the case on the past 2 visits). Would be good to maybe have a YBIG venue for this one for those who want to meet up (And before some people start shouting, I know this wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea and people are free to do what they want etc)

Isn't the Eiffel Tower a designated fan zone for pairc des princes ? If it's sealed off as a fan zone don't think you would get away with bringing a bag of cans as they sell drink inside there.

Only if you've a deathwish..it's basically a big roundabout with about eight busy roads converging on it. Also a war memorial with armed soldiers on duty so a bunch of pissed Irish singing won't go down well.

Even tho its a fairly small sample size, it would appear from the number of posts so far that ppl are more excited about Paris and Bordeaux than Lille.

Paris is my least favourite of the 3 : Don't like city and less of an away match feel with people all spread out.
