The Great Euro 2016 FAQ thread

Never asked for ID at a away game before myself, with so many tickets being swopped it would be a nightmare.

SD, any tips on how to get home at short notice from Toulouse or Lyon, or would it be to just follow your tips to get to/from Lille and sailrail after the bus to London?

Toulouse to Paris: take the night train, saves on a night's accommodation. There are some late ones running after the last sixteen tie there.

Lyon to Paris: take the Ouigo.

Paris to London: Ouibus or, perhaps, "eurostar snap".

Eurostar snap is a new thing, fares only available on snap.eurostar.com, and you have to book at least seven days in advance. You only get to pick whether you want to travel in the morning (from the very first train, at 06:30 from Paris), or the afternoon (any time up til the last train of the day). They only tell you the exact time two days in advance and you need to print off a pdf ticket after that. However, the fares are only £25. The fares are non-refundable, non-exchangeable, but at £25, what more can you ask for? Eurostar snap is only available to and from Brussels, Paris and London: they're not available to and from Lille. The idea is to enable Eurostar to fill unoccupied seats easily and flexibly. The handiest way to figure out the most likely train you'll be put on is to look at what train has the cheapest tickets on the day you want to travel on the full eurostar website: that's liable to end up with the majority of snap ticket passengers. It's not always the earliest or latest train either.

At 07:55 in the morning, I don't actually mind if it's a restricted alcohol service. No one needs to be getting tanked up before noon.

Agree but just putting the info out there. Bottle of wine i referred to was for return journey on 14th where restrictions will also be in place. No doubt some fans will be boozing at 8am though.

What every happened to the YBIG what's app group that The Gerk was posting about during the week . Can't find the topic anymore or is it just not happing anymore ?

Prostitution, although that isn't an option for everyone.

Similar problem SD. I got a loan from the bank and now they want me to pay it back. I'm fairly anti pimping myself out so other suggestions would be welcome.
