Just been wondering about all the Fans together, how much each has spent or ar going to spend, for each of your relevant itineries?
There are 4 of us in our group on the Trip for 12 days. We have structured each leg and host city accordingly, with Hotels, trains, bus and flights, already paid for..£500. A Grand spending money, and it works out one expensive exercise!!
The last 2 years, we been to all of the qualifying matches. I have totalled all of them up, which came to a staggering £5000! (Israel and Cyprus) excepted because they were Holidays!
So, to watch my Country in a major Tournament for the very first time have will have cost a sum approaching £6.5k!
Do you feel that this is a fair price to pay? Be interested to know how much it all cost you, and your journey to get to France?

The trip to France had cost me just short of £1700 including travel, accommodation, tickets and spending money for the group stage. I can't remember what it cost me to go to Cyprus and Belgium, or Scotland away games to get the loyalty points to qualify for the tickets. I see it as potentially a once in a lifetime experience so don't begrudge the cost too much. Plus as you say Cyprus was a holiday and this will be my holiday for this year. Austria will be a couple of days I think.

Tickets, travel and accomodatiom £1700, Spending Money for 2 weeks £2,000 but hoping to spend less.
Total Cost = around £3-3,700.

Id say about 3-3500 but we're doing the full hog so it could rise depending on how far we progress.

£2000 spending money for two weeks!!! That's nearly £150 a day. Bloody hell.
My tickets, travel and accommodation has come to around £450 and I reckon I'll spend somewhere around £350-400 for the week I'm away.

Strange that, Evans reckons he'll be sponsoring your beer - and that you'll be wearing a wrist band cos you think it's all-inclusive
See you in Bordeaux mate

I have over budgeted mate, I am hoping to not spend that much but got it boxed off in case.
Im expexting it to be pricey and expecting to spend a fair whack though to be honest.
