How much is it? And if you neck a pint do they just keep topping you up?

What's the general feeling about tickets? Will there be a scramble?

Going by my own social media there's actually a lot more fans that would never go to games going to this than there was going to Wales, surprisingly.


Getting the same impression myself.


I'm expecting 5000-6000, its a World Cup play off. Were we fully anticipate and believe we will qualify. As soon as the Danish release their general sale tickets which will be in around 10,000 we'll be all over them.

Another Scotland I reckon. Great to see, best away scene I've seen as an Ireland fan was in Park Head where in every corner you looked there was tri colours Clap


Defo beats Giants Stadium, Stuttgart and Lille alright


In my experience. I did see Lille, I preferred Glasgow more hostile. I was a child in the other two I can't remember them.
Weird enough but each to their own

Just out of interest lads, as this game has probably come a bit soon for me to afford, I’m wondering what’s the best way to get myself up the ticket ladder for the next campaign?

I’m still in college and only working part time, but haven’t missed a home game in years - although have never bought a season ticket.

For the next campaign should I be buying a season ticket, and then trying to go to 2/3 of the cheaper aways to get myself in the door?

Thanks

There will be a couple of nations league games next Autumn cant see a problem with tickets for these unless we are in the same group as Northern Ireland and/or wales get a long to these. that should see you sorted for the start of the euro2020 qualifiers

Was in the Carlsberg factory last April. Pre booked tickets but they never looked for them to do the tour we just walked straight in and at the end gave our tickets to avail of the free beer. Might suit the cheapskate if you can live without a free beer

Afraid not. It's only open in the winter for a spell over Halloween and then the Christmas period so won't be on the hit list. Damn shame as it's fantastic. 

Bars wise, The Jane is unmissable.

One and a Carlsberg Pin. We wouldn't have bothered only we pre booked. You can still pay for beers there

Yep, that's it. Getting the ST, and renewing it, is pretty vital for building up your points.
Throw in a few of the cheaper aways over the next couple of years, and you'll be well on your way.

It isn't though. They didn't take season tickets into account for the Wales game. Someone with 4 Aways and 0 season tickets were higher priority than someone with 3 aways and 4 season tickets.

Shouldn't have been like that but it seems it was. But anyway, nations league away games should be the way to go. There shouldn't be too much hassle building up a history at those.

best way to see Copenhagen is on the canals, you can hire GO boat a small engine powered boat that fits up to 8, about 400kr (€50) an hour divided by however many on. one of the lads has to pilot it but no experience needed and you can bring on your own food and cans, mind you it will be cold. also the nettobadene (Netto boat) is bigger and will have a guide talking in English about 40 kr (€5) each.
if you're walking around Nyhavn is really nice but stay away from the bars, expensive. 
 Favourite Irish bar is Kennedys, best Guinness in CPH about 45kr (€6).
best can spot will probably be outside the dubliner, big open space with no cars, Poznan square but a lot smaller. cans are same price as home and fags are a lot cheaper.

Well, I'll qualify it by stating that the ST gives you more points than buying match tickets individually, which will bump up you up the points list.
In reality, no-one knows how away tickets are allocated, or if points even exist.  It still stands to reason that getting an ST, as opposed to individual tickets, is the best way to up your points.
 
Regarding your example, those with multiple STs/aways on one account, we don't know how they were allocated.  It certainly seemed more random than those with individual accounts.
 
In short, get an ST, get to the aways if you can, and apply for it all on your own account.
