You can enter the lottery for tickets for the games now at https://euro2016.tickets.uefa.com/lottery/welcome_en.html You will need a Visa or Mastercard for the application but it won't be charged unless you are successful in the draw which will take place in February. You will also need you passport number as when I applied for tickets I was only able to apply for my national teams games and the passport number is used to verify your nationality.

My ideal group is England, Italy, Poland, Rep. of Ireland. We won't win the tournament and that would be the group that will add the most spice for an Irish fan.

Now that we know who will be going to France next year the draw for the group stages will take place on Saturday (12th December) at 5pm. • Pot 1: Spain (holders), Germany, England, Portugal, Belgium • Pot 2: Italy, Russia, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Ukraine • Pot 3: Czech Republic, Sweden, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary • Pot 4: Turkey, Republic of Ireland, Iceland, Wales, Albania, Northern Ireland Travel prices will jump quickly once the fixtures are announced but if you want to get there first and don't care what game you see you can see the match schedule here: http://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/General/02/31/36/21/2313621_DOWNLOAD.pdf
