March/Train To Get To The HSV Ground
St.Pauli CSC worked together with the public transport authority to have a
special train running
from the St.Pauli area to close to the HSV ground, holding about 1000 people.
We'll
leave at the Knust venue at about 4.45 pm after having taken a big mob picture
in the
yard outside the Knust and march down the street to the train station
STERNSCHANZE which will take about 5 to 10 minutes. TRAIN WILL LEAVE 5.15 pm
SHARP!!!
and takes about 12 minutes.
When we get out of the train, shuttle buses will bring us directly to the
ground.
If any do not fit in or are getting there late: take the train S11 to
OTHMARSCHEN!!
The special train is defo the best way to get to the ground. Any getting there
on different
routes, e.g. from Reeperbahn: don't go to the official train station
STELLINGEN!!
All Celtic supporters should go to OTHMARSCHEN, that's a stop on the green
lines S1 and S11.
After the match it will go back the same way.
For Those Without Tickets
Knust (the venue of the party), Jolly Roger, Raval, Weinbar St.Pauli etc. all
show the match
After The Match
All the well known venues like Knust, Jolly Roger, Weinbar St.Pauli etc. will
be open after the match.
Opening of FC St.Pauli Ground Millerntor
For those who want to have a look at our ground, take pictures etc.,
we'll open
the terrace of the south stand:
Wednesday: 1 pm til 5 pm
Thursday: 1 pm til 4 pm
The entrance will be just left of the club's pub and we'll have someone of
St.Pauli CSC there to
answer questions etc.
For A Good Cause: The Match Day T-Shirt
We created a strictly limited t-shirt for this event. All proceeds go to the
Fanräume ('Room for Fans')
initiative. The aim of the Fanräume project is to create more space for
supporters initiatives
and the social project Fanladen
http://www.stpauli-fanladen.de/english/. So this a good alternative
to the usual half-and-half scarf - hardly appropiate to have HSV and Celtic on
one, isn't it?
The shirt will be available for 12 Euro at the venue Knust during the
parties where the Fanräume initiative
will also be happy to answer any questions, sell other merchandise etc. and
most likely at the
south stand during the opening hours (see above).
The Jolly Roger
The Jolly Roger is the main St.Pauli supporters pub. It's non-profit, all
money goes into supporters projects.
It's located at Budapester Straße close to the Millerntor stadium and 5
minutes walk from Reeperbahn.
Opening hours: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 12 am/noon til the last
guests leave, usually about 5 or 6 am
Normal opening hours all other days, e.g. 8 pm on the Tuesday. Check out
http://www.myspace.com/jollyrogerhh as well.
FC St.Pauli matches
We'll play away to Hansa Rostock on Monday, Nov 2, 8.15 pm and at home against
Düsseldorf on Friday, Nov 6, 6 pm.
The home match against Düsseldorf is sold out!
If you would like to attend: The only way to get tickets is to find spares so
ask around and check for
people offering some outside the ground. Please don't buy from touts that ask
for much more than face value. Any
decent supporter would give it away at face value but wouldn't mind getting
bought a beer. If you find anyone with
a spare season ticket: we don't have season books, but plastic cards so you'll
have to go inside together as no one
would give it away (it's not replaceable).
If you got a ticket reserved by the Fanladen (btw: another reason to buy the
t-shirt mentioned above
):
Pick it up in time or if you know you won't take it contact the Fanladen ASAP
as there is a long waiting list
and many fellow supporters would like to attend! Phone number of the Fanladen:
+49 40 439 69 61.
Security and General Advises
The St.Pauli district is a party and red light area so you should take all the
usual precautions such as
keeping money save and having a copy of your passport. Some of the more shady
bars along the Reeperbahn
might try to fool you with the price of a drink, so if you really wanna go
there order from a menu rather
than just ordering 'one beer' and never let any of the staff order a champagne
on your expense. We have had
supporters with 600 Euro bills at lunch time in recent years - there are
better ways of spending money.
It's not illegal to consume alcohol on the street in Hamburg, but since
recently there's a complete ban
of glass bottles at the Reeperbahn and some of the streets and places just of
the Reeperbahn. No problem
to drink alcohol from plastic bottles, though, and the ban does not apply to
the areas further north and
south of the Reeperbahn such as where Jolly Roger etc. are.
Opening hours: there are no limits for the pubs and bars, but many will close
rather early on work days.
There will be still enough bars open (almost) all night and all the St.Pauli/Celtic
related places should
be bouncing til the morning. Ask us or in the hotels for further advise.
Supermarkets in the St.Pauli area
are open every day.
HSV supporters: we don't expect large scale riots, but it's good to be
careful. Their pubs are rather south
of the Reeperbahn. While it's no problem to walk there during the day, it's
defo better to remain in groups and
rather avoid it on Wednesday night and especially after the match. Only very
very few good places there
anyway, more expensive, touristy etc. Better stick to north of the Reeperbahn
and you'll be very safe in the
places we recommend on the map.
We put together a
google map of the relevant venues.
Getting to Hamburg/St.Pauli
From Hamburg Airport
Take train S1, departing from one of the terminals, simply follow the signs.
You
should be able to simply stay on the train til you reach train station
Reeperbahn.
It's a wee bit quicker if you change trains 2 times, but this way is easiest.
Will stop
in Wandsbek and at central train station (Hauptbahnhof) as well, if you need
to get
out in those areas for your hotel.
From Bremen Airport (Ryan Air)
It's advisable to take the train, as the Autobahn is full of road works, so
the
bus will need longer than usual to Hamburg. If you are traveling after 9 am on
a
work day or on a weekend, you can use the "Niedersachsenticket"/"Lower Saxony
Ticket"
which costs 28 Euro and is valid for a group of up to 5 people. You can get it
at
the airport information (just follow the signs) and it's valid for the tram
(line
number 6, get out at Bremen Hauptbahnhof), the Metronom train to Hamburg
(leaving
Bremen on .28, e.g. 2.28 pm, 3.28 pm etc.), and public transport in Hamburg.
The alternative is the bus, it costs 14 Euro per person.
From Lübeck Airport (Ryan Air)
Take the bus, departs directly in front of the airport terminal and it's about
8 or 10 Euro.
From Berlin Airport (Schönefeld or Tegel)
The fastest is going by train, but can be costly:
http://www.bahn.de/international/view/en/index.shtml
There are two Bus companies as well:
http://www.berlinlinie.de/
http://www.berlinlinienbus.de/
After arriving at central bus and train station in Hamburg:
To get to St.Pauli district, you could take either U3 (yellow line) to stop
St.Pauli or S1
(green line) to Reeperbahn.
