Doubt the seating will change,if they do they will put us behind the goal i would imagine.

Lads:

It's not a problem. Anyone who has been to one game in this campaign will get a ticket to Cologne if they want it.

1,000 in Austria, apparently 1,200 in Sweden (at most 2,500, I'd say 1,500 is about right), 200 in Kstan (and a lot of those were Irish lads who work out there) and 400 in Faroes (at most 500)..... even if those figures are 50% less generous than accurate (say, the total is around 50% higher than 2,800) and even if nobody went to more than one game (which is nonsense), that's still only 4,200 people. The real figure is probably much closer to 2,000, or at a push 2,500 or 3,000, almost all of whom went to England. I'd be surprised if there was one Irish fan in Cardiff who hadn't been to another game either. They'll all get tickets to Cologne if they want them. Long and short of it, anyone who has been to a single Ireland away game since the euros except Wembley, be it friendly or competitive, will get a ticket if they want one, as there hasn't even been 4,500 cumulatively at Ireland away games since the euros, England aside.

why did ye not set up an account and apply urself? no connections needed for this one

This is a nice 3*-hotel just approx. 5 minutes walking distance from Charlies, in a quiet little side street, currently going for € 65.- / night / double room on hrs.com for the match nights , my office used it for guest a few times previously and it was very good. http://www.hotelboltzmann.at/en/home.php

have to say 1000 isn't great even allowing for all the continental ex pats, decent time of the year, decent city by all accounts, decent options on travel - disappointing
