I've not yet, the casino might be the best bet for me as it's only one junction down the m6.Sounds like good fun mate! Just need to get tomorrow out of the way at work now and then Germany here we come!!Crazyboy wrote:Wer are doing the same thing but flying in from Gatwick to Hannover.

Going with the mrs but should still be awesome.
Will take it fairly easy Friday but from about 3pm on Saturday will be hitting the beers big time! Anyone know any decent bars near the Imtech Arena??
One of the lads i'm going with is a Fulham fan (stay with me here) and because of last seasons euro exploits he actually went to Hamburg a few times. he says there are 2 very big boozers near the ground that you can't miss and are great but get absolutely rammed before games (so we presume fights) but thats where most people will go anyway.
He knows a few others that are close but a bit more 'off the beaten track' shall we say lol i'll try and get the names but there is one where you walk through a bookies to get to a bar attached to it haha
Hopefully see a few Boxrecers out there anyway
I'll arm wrestle you for the recliner?poodlepoo wrote:ill be showing this on 2 screens

I'm a bit disappointed in the undercard but you know what, who cares, its all about tha main event and you never know, some undercard fights can surprise youtannervegas wrote:What time is the main event on and is the undercard worth binning the boozer off for? Just curious as to what time people are aiming to get to the stadium?

We are going to get to the area around the arena for about 8:30ish and see what happens around the ground, soak in the atmosphere lol. If most people have gone inside we'll probably do the same as i do want to watch as much boxing as poss.
Can't believe there are so many fans out there from Uk, gonna be awesome.
Debating the rigour fr Jim Watt's, Jonny Nelson, McGuigan or Hatton's gameplans over many beers! 8) That Beyond the Ropes documentary was good, it really whets the appetite more for this - I cant wait for Saturday night!ha ha you should be on the wkd adverts.revporl wrote:Oh, happy days!
