@FCHTOnline @Dag_RedFC Really disappointing, there will be loads of junior football matches going ahead this week following the thaw. Missing my games down the Shay!

[Andrew Fleming @Andrewpfleming]

@FCHTOnline Great point, great battling well done lads 👍

[Andrew Fleming @Andrewpfleming]

@HxCourierTom Much better when we play forward and with tempo 👊 Cooke and Evans made a huge difference

[Andrew Fleming @Andrewpfleming]

@HxCourierTom Awful. Embarrassing. Lacking effort

[Andrew Fleming @Andrewpfleming]

@FCHTOnline £12…. Another game on the pitch as the weather turns poor. Eastleigh had the right idea here - this is likely to hinder our league and cup schedule. East stand only tells you all you need to know about the likely interest.

@tracey_crouch @parkrunUK @Maidstonepkrun Well done Tracey 👏 your first milestone is still a lot more than I’ve done 🤦🏻‍♂️

[Andrew Fleming @Andrewpfleming]

@WeAreTheFSA Non league fan - Rubbish idea, very little interest, no income generation and it will damage the pitches.

Some info for fans attending the game this evening.

🚆𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥
Match ticket holders are entitled to free regional travel from 6am today until 6pm tomorrow. This can be used in the VRR and VRS regions only.

🚇🚶𝐆𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝
Fans can use tram U78 to Sportpark Nord/Europaplatz from Düsseldorf Hauptbahnhof or Heinrich-Heine-Allee.

Whilst trams are expected to run every
3-5 minutes, it is possible that some trams will arrive at Heinrich-Heine-Allee already busy/full from the main station. So please allow enough time.

There is a shuttle bus from Heinrich-Heine-Allee, however this will drop you at the south side of the stadium, so you could face a long walk to the north side of the stadium, where the official England section is.

Weather dependent, you could walk or take an e-scooter along the river (it is illegal to ride the scooters under the influence of alcohol). Walking will take around 75 mins.

Switzerland fans are based in the south of the stadium and have a fan meeting point along the river. They plan to walk to the stadium around 2:30pm in their thousands.

There are also some shuttles to the stadium from the airport and the airport station.

Once again, leave enough time to get to the stadium and have some patience.

🏟️𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐮𝐦
The stadium will open at 15:00 and there are no alcohol restrictions. It has been reported that fans in the upper tier have faced some long queues at the concession stands.

If drinking in the stands, remember you pay a €3 deposit for the cups, please do not chuck them! It doesn’t do us any favours, and only impacts the people they land on. Unfortunately this has caused some injuries. Return them to the kiosks after the game to get your money back.

The stadium will remain open for a while if you wanted to stay and have a drink. The 9pm game will not be shown.

🚃𝐀𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞
Fans can use tram U78 back to the city centre from the Merkur-Spiel-Arena/Messe Nord station, which is located at the south of the stadium. This is not the same station as the one you will be dropped off at.

There are no shuttle buses back to the city centre, so you could walk, or use shuttle buses to the airport and take a short train back to the city from there.

Anyone that takes U78 from the stadium can expect it to take around an hour to clear.

📱🎟️𝐓𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬
Any fans with ticketing issues can visit the ticket resolution centres at the stadium, they open seven hours before KO. There are three centres in total at the stadium.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐬
Remember that flags bigger than 2x1.5m should have a fire label/fire certificate.

🎒𝐁𝐚𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞
There is free bag storage in the city at Grabbeplatz. This will open at midday until 1am.

📺𝐅𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬
If you have been unable to obtain a ticket, you can watch the game at the multiple bars around the city, as well as at fan zones Burgplatz, Schauspielhaus, and the public viewing area on the river front.

📍ℹ️𝐅𝐚𝐧𝐬’ 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐲
The Fans’ Embassy will be located at Schadowplatz from 10:00-15:30.

Our volunteers will also be around the city should you need any assistance. Issue 189 of the Free Lions is available to collect.

[Free Lions @WeAreFreeLions]

Just to clarify, shuttle services are ready to operate from Heinrich-König-Platz to the stadium, but only if necessary. Tram is still the first option.

We’d advise ticket holders to avoid Nordsternpark since it only opens at 4pm. Non-ticket holders can use it to watch the game.

Free bag storage will be available again near the main station.

Fans travelling to Frankfurt are reminded that in order to buy the €29.90 ICE train tickets between host cities, you need to have purchased two days before you intend you travel.

Do not leave it till the day you plan to travel.

England fans who have obtained match tickets for this fixture are entitled to free travel from 6am on Sunday 16th June until 6pm on Monday 17th June.

Free travel can be used on all 𝒓𝒆𝒈𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒍 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕 (you cannot use IC/ICE/EC trains) within the VRR and VRS regions.
