    I'm going and I'd declare myself supremely excited. I reckon we should be looking for an ESB pre-drinking arena - get a few faces to names and get a lively atmosphere going.

    Gelsenkirchen is quite rough I'm told. A mate who went to the world cup described it as the Middlesborough of Germany. Ouch.

    Yeah, I'm going. Can't wait.

    I went Gelsenkirchen for the WC. I didn't find it was rough really. We did find a shop that sold beer for about 40p a bottle though. I shall be hunting that shop out again.

    I'm going, with the missus. 'can't wait. Germany in general is a fantastic place to visit, vastly underrated as a destination...clean, efficient, people are cool, loads of things to see and do, decent weather...'haven't been to Dusseldorf before but the Altstadt looks likes the place to head for. I wonder how many Brits will head out...5-10kish?

    Johnathon Banks moves up to heavywieght for the first time, also Cedric Boswell fights again

    Is it just a heavyweight card or something? That's 4 heavyweight fights on the same bill.

    They better have a reinforced boxing ring for this lot!!

    I would have loved to have been going over, I think Haye is going to cause a massive upset. Sadly work and pocket commitments deny me that luxury :fire

    Middlesbrough is not that bad IMO.

    Wish I was going, Haye is my favourite current fighter and would love to see him when he knocks out Wlad.

    I don't think there will be anywhere near the 25,000 Brits that Bunce thinks there will be, I'd be surprised at 10,000.
