What section of the ground are the Hibs fans in Lucerne?

What section of the ground are the Hibs fans in Lucerne?


The official away section is block C6 in the corner surrounded by high fences and netting.

[Hibby Bairn]

The official away section is block C6 in the corner surrounded by high fences and netting.

Is that next to section D2?

[lyonhibs]

Is that next to section D2?

Yes. D1 is also greyed out, that's where the extra 200 will be I imagine

[Hibby Bairn]

I wonder why they only released 200. Assume that section also holds 800 or so?

[Mainstandman]

I think if we'd lost last night we'd have gotten more, they've taken the hump now:greengrin. Seriously though, we've been allocated a total of 996 tickets which is over 5% of the stadium capacity so we really can't complain.

Bet I can!!!😅

[LaMotta]

Try for example the restaurant "Made in Sud" for delicious Italian cuisine and reasonable prizes in Swiss terms.

Also there are some nice Asian restaurants which won't cost a fortune (Phanat Thai, Khoua Vientiane and more)

:aok: cheers mate will have a look

[Ringothedog]

Anything on the back of the tickets mate?.

Sorry nothing on mine although I am in row 5 seat 606

[Hermit Crab]

Sorry nothing on mine although I am in row 5 seat 606


I'm row 4, I think platz translates as place, think its the safe standing section as the first 8 rows or so are safe standing although it might not be set up that way because its a European game.

[Hermit Crab]

Extra tickets going on sale at 12:30. ST holders only, 1 per ST and collection only. Good luck.

[NAE NOOKIE]

Right set of dirty ***** based on that "performance"

Nae kiddin' That 'challenge' on a Hibs player where the guy just launched himself at him was nothing short of an assault, if there had been VAR last night there's no chance he would have stayed on the pitch. Some of the treatment Miller got was brutal, I was a bit critical of him for not running onto a ball at full pelt last night, then I saw the challenge on him that had happened about 10 minutes before, no wonder the guy wasn't as mobile as he can be at that point.

[DH1875]

Hope someone sorts lyonhibs out.

[Keith_M]

Just a heads-up about buying tickets in the home end.

In my experience of games in Germany, Austria and a couple in Switzerland... if you're not total p1ssed or acting like a d1ck, you're generally OK siting in the home fans sections next to the away end.

There's literally hundreds of tickets still available in that area of the ground (see the link above).

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Still tickets available its not sold out.

[weecounty hibby]

Got my three needed. Good luck everyone else!!

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Keep refreshing there are tickets coming up, I just added one for someone in my network who couldn't get on.

Lyonhibs, was wondering whether you could answer a couple of Swiss train questions.

Is it better to buy tickets in advance or is it ok to buy before boarding?

If I buy a ticket in advance for a certain train and I miss it, will it be valid for a later train?

Only if you buy a super saver ticket that's for a specific train will you be in bother. But if you buy a ticket just for the route at normal price in advance, it's valid on all trains on that route all day

Its worth noting that Luzern have a very difficult game tomorrow at home to Young Boys of Bern who are arguably the best team in Switzerland. They attack constantly and usually score a barrowload of goals over the course of the season.

Be interesting to see how they get on v them. An injury to number 11 Okou would be good (not career threatening of course). He terrorised our defence and I was glad when they subbed him off.

3:30pm kick off I see from Live Scores. Anyone know if that is UK or Swiss time?

[Since452]

Did Youan not used to play in Switzerland? Hopefully he has some good info on what to expect at their place. Tie still very much in the balance. They could have scored 3 or 4 themselves last week.

Questions for Swiss based Hibbies.:cb

Am I right that Zurich Flughaven is the name of the train station at Zurich airport?

And, I'm getting into Zurich Airport 15:55 on Wednesday from Dublin, and planning on prebuying train tickets to Zurich HB through the trainline app for a train at 16:36 (about 6 quid or so per ticket). If I miss that 16:36 train will I be able to use that ticket on any other train??:hmmm:

Also none of us have any German speaking capabilities? Will we be ok?:greengrin

Flughaven is the airport, yes. The station is in the airport.

The ticket would only be valid if it's a anytime ticket. If it's a 'supersaver' ticket for a specific time, then no, it would not work.

Thanks mate.

It says on the trainline app that it's a "ZVV single ticket" - not sure what that means but doesn't say whether supersaver or anytime...

[the_ginger_hibee]

Thanks mate.

It says on the trainline app that it's a "ZVV single ticket" - not sure what that means but doesn't say whether supersaver or anytime...

Sounds like it would be for that train only but maybe someone else can confirm for sure. I bought a open ticket for the Wednesday and it says 'Point-to-point Ticket' on it, rather than single or a set time.

So should we just buy tickets at the airport station ticket machine rather than get one in advance? Thought it might be cheaper buying in advance, but wont know for sure what time we'll get through the airport...

From Basel airport? Quite possibly, never booked a hotel in Basel living in Zurich obviously but have flown in/out of the airport about 100 times.

This is a very fair comment. Our system today meant we didn't have a lot of midfielders breaking forward. Something for Frick to think about. 3421 does allow us to control the game, but limits our creative prowess.

Do you practice at arguing with everyone mate?

The point is that WE don't need to score a lot of goals over there. Luzern need to score 3. Which is well above their average of 1 per game in the League.

Bet365 have Hibs at 3/10 to qualify.... and they're seldom wrong :)

Alf or Vente to score the winner in ET

although if it goes to ET Hibs are a huge 22/1

[CapitalGreen]

8 so far this season however the standard of defending in Switzerland is bound to better than our cart horse defenders can do.

Why is it bound to be better? Cedric Itten was a goal machine in that league before joining Rangers and now plays for the best team over there scoring for fun. He scored 8 goals in 48 games for Rangers.

Thanks! Interesting. I think with our defence you'll get more than enough chances, home or away.

As a side note, the referee on Thursday looks a bit of a humdinger, would imagine there will be a load of yellows & potentially a red especially if the tackles are anything like last week, in one way maybe not a bad thing given they got away with a lot:
27118

[B.H.F.C]

Really not looking forward to Thursday on the back of today.

They are going to come out at us quickly and if they score early I really fear for us.

No problem with us setting up in a more defensive shape but we cannot simply lump the ball up the park, as we did today.

Think that was as much the road trip from Girona to Andorra…as opposed to the flight. Luzern will be far more straightforward.

That said, still don’t buy the excuse about not going out early enough- plenty in the team/on coaching staff who went to Andorra before and would have known.

[B.H.F.C]

I’m sure Brian McGlaughlin mentioned to Johnson after the game about going out on Wednesday. He might well be on their flight out I’d imagine.

Don’t think it’ll be an issue like in Andorra as it’s a much easier journey.

Interesting. I can't see any scheduled flights From Edinburgh to anywhere in Switzerland at that time unless of course they have chartered an aircraft that isn't appearing on the scheduled departures when you search it, or they are traveling via another airport. They will be arriving after most of the fans have arrived.

They should be going out on Tuesday morning to get used to to the heat. Plus leaving at that time on Wednesday wipes out any chance of a light training session at Luzern ground the night before the game. Suspect Wednesday 5pm is bollocks.

No time to get used to the heat, no time to train on the pitch. Temp at kick off is supposed to be 25c. We will really struggle, ffs we struggled in 20c heat in Motherwell yesterday. A lack of preparation means we do deserve to go out.

Mercifully UEFA judge it on what happens on the pitch, not the quality of the preparation :greengrin

Does seem like a bit of a cock-up to arrive so close to the kick off but who knows, maybe there are some rather opaque reasons behind it.

If the squad pop into the pub in Zurich after landing on Wednesday, then we'll know the planning has really gone awry :flag:

I had to read your post a couple of times to make sure it wasnt deliberate 😃

[NYHibby]

Does seem like a bit of a cock-up to arrive so close to the kick off but who knows, maybe there are some rather opaque reasons behind it.

I could swear that someone at the club said that we arrived too late in Andorra, the travel negatively affected our performance and we would learn from this for the future. It might have been in the St Mirren programme

I suspect the person who has mentioned the departure time is just having a laugh.

Johnson said it in 2/3 post Match interviews against the andorrans

They are going by bus and ferry

Apart from the fact that there is a charter plane landing at Zurich from EDI 3 hours after this reported departure time, I'd be inclined to agree with you. Assuming they're staying in Luzern somewhere, they won't be there before 22h00-22h30

So at the moment it looks like there is no way to see the game on Thursday, not even on Hibs TV ?

So far, no. Apart from VPN and watch it on Swiss telly iplayer equivalent - SRF Zwei.

But maybe a late announcement pending from Hibs on that front, who knows.

[JimBHibees]

So if they are leaving at 5pm on Wednesday that is absolutely horrendous preparation from the club. We deserve to go out if that is the case.

Cant see that being correct. Thought it was mandated teams had to train the night before the game at the ground.

[JimBHibees]

Thanks! Interesting. I think with our defence you'll get more than enough chances, home or away.

As a side note, the referee on Thursday looks a bit of a humdinger, would imagine there will be a load of yellows & potentially a red especially if the tackles are anything like last week, in one way maybe not a bad thing given they got away with a lot:
27118

Likes a yellow complete opposite of last week's guy.

Yip I always thought they had to be there 24 hours before the game, maybe not though

[lyonhibs]

Has the game actually sold out out of interest?

If a ST holders logs in now, are there any from the extra 200 left?

[JohnM1875]

Just tried it and worked a treat, so I'll be doing that on Thursday. Cheers.

No. I can purchase the max amount of tickets right now, 6, in the D1 section.

Looks like there's 5 tickets left in C6 also.

[Nakedmanoncrack]

So after the initial scramble the 900 odd has been more than enough, doubt any more will be sold now.

Anyone know a good vpn for free that will work?

Managed to get it using the Hola VPN through chrome. It's free and a wee bit fiddly but got it working in the end.

Wouldn't recommend using Hola, a quick Google search will bring up plenty reasons why.

Windscripe VPN offer a free tier. 10GB per month. I think Switzerland is included in the free countries.

I wouldn't stream in HD if you want the 10gb to last though.
