That same info is still what's on the ticketing site. Unless you're a member then you have to have purchased tix directly from them during this season. Game will more than likely sell-out since Braunschweig are challenging for the championship. Also had a look at the Braunschweig ticket-shop but couldn't see anything! Only other games on in north Germany that weekend are Wolfsburg v. Dortmund (which will already be sold-out) and Bremen v. Frankfurt.

Almost 74.000 posts in 6 and a half years, "get a f'n life" springs to mind!

Thought the rule was no compilations? New Order Substance

Easiest way to get a ticket for the Allianz Arena is to register with one of the other BL teams and apply for a ticket for the away section. Not the best if you're a Bayern fan and looking to go all dressed up in Bayern colours. If you go "icognito" nobody bothers, and when I was in the away end last season every time Bayern scored half the away end jumped up and down. Same goes for those looking to get to a Dortmund game at the Westfalenstadion.

Had forgotten about viagogo. Have never used so no idea how reliable or how quick you get your tickets. H96 v Bayern E Frankfurt v Bayern €64 for the H96 fixture isn't too bad. With Frankfurt coming up last year then more interest than usual, lowest on there just now is a hefty €139!

Braunschweig are top of BL2 at present. To get there from Hamburg is train to Hannover then another 35 minutes or so eastwards. If you find Wolfsburg on the map, then Braunschweig (Brunswick) is 20 miles south-west.

Chances for the H96 v Bayern game will be next to non existent (especially for 6). For the other two games you've mentioned tickets will be freely available. Eintracht Braunschweig are also at home that weekend, although if they are still sitting atop the league then tickets will also be difficult to come by. ETA, exact dates & times won't be fixed/announced till end February or so.

Unfortunately a bit of hooliganism creeping back in. Couple of hundred Dresden "casuals" created havoc after running at the gates and stewards at the cup game with Hanover on Wednesday night (since reunification there has been a bit of needle between H96 & Dresden). Added to that there was a fair bit of aggro at the recent Dortmund ~ Schalke game! Hopefully gets nipped in the bud! Due to the fan numbers, then the free public transport makes sense. Much better to have everyone on trams, buses or local trains than clogging up the streets with their own cars. Plus the amount of extra public transport put on at the end of the game negates the need for a "subway loyal" type scenario. As mentioned above, standing areas are cheap & cheerful. My season ticket at Hanover 96 (terracing behind goals) works out at 10 €uro per game. Away tickets (standing) are also good value (was at Frankfurt 2 weeks ago, cost = 15 €uro). Getting standing tickets in the BL1 can be difficult for away games, most get allocated to the supporters clubs. Away tickets for the seated sections can be v. expensive (for what is either a seat behind the goals or in the corner). Last year was at Dortmund 46 €uro, Munich 49,50 €uro, Wolfsburg 19 €uro, Berlin 37 €uro.

Because otherwise it wouldn't make any sense / be a proper sentence...

Ctrl & F5 should do it.

I propose that Div moves next years Fives to a Wednesday! June 2013

1) You'll get the best exchange rate when using your card, but 2) Let your bank know that you'll be going overseas. Have heard of people getting their cards "blocked" due to unconventional usage.

Would be interesting to know as to who is actually paying for this. Is a sure fire way to p!ss-off all the smaller creditors, "sorry mate, we're not paying the paper bill, we're off on a jolly to Hong Kong!" Also did any of the "legendary stars" fly Business Class... My link

Well, be polite and click that you're not attending...

The TV coverage on German TV starts at 22:45 (German time).

All nights, or just on a Thursday...

On the left, surely Ewen Bremner (Spud)!!

Go to the top right, click on your user name & select My Settings. Next screen will have various options for what time zone you're in and whether summer time etc. should be corrected.

Never knew that you could do that. Now to annoy some of the @rseholes at work!

Who's paying???

What part of the thread title do you not understand? And please consign your red-hand signature to the bin!

That's some overnight, from Kiev to London!
