Same boat here . Think my crew are getting married , babies and mortgaged out .
On the other hand I'm 22 and I didn't know anybody else that went to Poland last time around, bar the lads I went with of course. In my small college course there is anywhere between 40 and 50 people. Including me there is 14 going from that course. Added to this I know of at least another 15 or 20 going and some of these are in groups of 10+

We had 40K in Paris in 2004.  OK it was a weekend no ticket issues and the Celtic Tiger was roaring.  

I believe we will have 40-50K at the Sweden game.  Most of the tickets are cat 1s and 145 euros is a lot for  a neutral to pay.  So I expect in the end there won't be ticket issues for Sweden.  

There will be  a lot less at Belgium and Italy somewhere in between.

Yeah I knew far more in Poland. France is a lot more expensive, and probably not going to be as much fun as Poland (not that it won't be fun in its own right).

Sweden always bring big numbers, Belgium are on the doorstep and have their best team ever, Italians don't give a f**k till the knock outs. 

So yeah Claret your prediction sounds more likely than the half the stadium in Paris full of Irish scenario 

Not quite : it's 540 miles from Bordeaux to the Belgian border and an eight hour drive. Anyone seeking to do it in one day from Belgium would have to leave at 5am or so (3 o'clock kick off).

Most people seem to think we'll have at least 7-8,000 in Nice, maybe 11-12,000 in Lyon (big new stadium), something in-between for Parc des Princes in Paris.

I'll be watching the PdP game and our knockout ties at home, expensive trip ;)

Surprised at that estimation FU.I thought N.I. would bring at least 20k as there'll be ticketless fans there too.

Edit: Just read the thread title

Naughty mucker ;)

Maybe I've underestimated a bit, but factor in the opening weekend game being in the smallest ground etc.

20k staying for the whole group stage, can't see that.

Paris: 38k
Bordeaux: 18k
Lille: 35k

Bordeaux is just going to be a nightmare for ticketless fans. The only weekend game, the biggest fixture, the biggest traveling support from an openent and the smallest stadium.

I was lucky to get tickets but I had thought about the scenario if I hadn't. I'd have brought €300 to buy one over there off a tout but I'd say I could get one for closer to €200. If you're in Paris scour the Irish fans for a spare and likewise in bordeaux. Paying a tout should be the last resort.
