Story with RWC tickets

0lordy

Heading to Bordeaux for the Namibia match in September - anyone know what's the story with tickets? Will more be made available online at some stage?

Else would we be able to pick some up when we get there, as the stadium seats 35,000, and demand shouldn't reach that?

I know it's a long way away, but wouldn't mind getting this bit sorted.

Thanks

Got a mail and link from a RFC and it directs to the ticket site saying tickets are released today morning for the Bordeaux games, so far I have not been able to get any and the 2 phone numbers dont work !!

Dear Ticket Secretary,

I write to inform you that there will be another release of tickets for Ireland pool games at Rugby World Cup 2007. Tickets for Ireland v Namibia, Georgia and Argentina will be released by Rugby World Cup Ltd on 13th March on their site www.france2007.fr.

We have been told that this may be the last release of tickets for these games, so you might forward these details to your members so that they can have access to tickets if not already purchased.

Please DO NOT contact Leinster Rugby about these tickets as there is no other way of purchasing them apart from the web site above.

As it happens, thanks to changing jobs, and new lack of holidays, I'm not going to be able to do the epic RWC experience that I'd hoped for. So I'm not doing the Bordeaux leg of the trip - leaving me with two tickets for Ireland vs Namibia, and Ireland Vs Georgia. They're in the Green Zone - I havn't recieved them yet so no actually row or seat numbers. Let me know if your interested in either, obviously at face value, but I can' t remember how much that is

Amz

But god the travel is very expensive allready, paying a fortune for flights for the two paris games, let alone the ones in bordeaux..

Diamondmaker

I have one Argentina ticket Im willing to swap for the Georgia game.

Its a premium ticket 200e and Im willing to swap it for the georgia game any offers considered as a start.

Post here if you now any one willing to take advantage of this BARGAIN offer:D

Which ferry?? Workin on that now!!

Kinetic^

Just picked Irish Ferries, didn't even check the others.

Accomadation isn't looking too cheap, might have to stay in a closeby town or something.

just got tickets for this also- I'm french and a part of me hopes it's NZ-france so that i get to see it, but one part of me hopes it's Ireland, meaning that France will get further on the other side of the draw.

Either way should be a fantastic day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

Amz

Got 2 for this also. I won't be able to sleep for the rest of the year now, I'm so excited!

i think we can safely say that NZ will be there no matter what- after that it could be against ireland france or argentina for that matter- no certainties whatsoever in this group....and by the way, hopefully neither THAT French team nor THAT Irish team will show up at the world cup because they were both atrocious at the weekend

Just changed it to Rosslare - Pembroke .. 2 hr drive and because we're going there and back within 24 hours it counts as a minibreak cruise so it was only 37 quid a head.

RESULT!

Ah nice. We're going on the friday afternoon and coming back late Sunday evening......booze ftw!!!!

Yeah that's the plan, going to be hard though. Should have our final numbers in the next day or two.

We go in on friday and leave on sunday. Hotel will only be for sleeping, shall be out for the rest of it.

Trotter

Can ya give me a few hotel tip offs if you find them lads? I havent been to Cardiff before so I dunno where to start.

Diamondmaker

for the HEC final ( Grrr :Leinster were not there ) we could not find any accomodation.

In the end satyed in the camp site out past the satdium up the river less than 10 mins walk.

3 tents 1 each for less 50£ I think.

Plenty of pitch space for drunk injury prone kick about to!

I cant recommend it enough !

I'll book that so. Trouble now is I cant find a fkn way of getting out of Cardiff on sunday morning to Pembroke! Theres no busses or trains that will do the trick and get us to the boat for 2pm.

Anyone any ideas on little known bus companies in cardiff?!

0lordy

Darn - didn't get back to this all day, so missed the ticket boat again.

Borsoi - thanks for the offer, but will take my chances and hold out for Purple or Blue zone tickets (€40 won't break the bank). If no joy, then there's always le pub.

Anyone else thinking of going: got flights Dublin-Paris-Bordeaux and back for <300yoyos. Think the fares are around the €400 mark now, and the costs are only going to go up...

crosstownk

I got tickets for the Ireland Argentina game last November. I booked flights to Brussels. All I've to organise now are rail tickets and accomodation................

Just wondering what sort of facilities are at the camp site, we're thinking of going to it as well.

acres of parkland , 5-10 mins from the bridge/board walk area of the stadium on the river, good clean wasing shower facilities etc, no less faciklities than a hotel room!;)

Power water on tap, just standard camping facilities and it was quiet enpugh at bed time too.
