I didn't see a thread for this match, so post all info on this match here I guess.

I'll be in Dublin for this match, which would be my first Irish match. I'll need a ticket to the match before I book, though I can't pay more than 40 euro (I don't know if that is alot or a little) :o. I think I'd technically qualify for a schoolboy ticket (I'm 18, I don't know how that works) so that would be the best thing possible I guess

Sorry if this is in the wrong place/is out of line

you cant really dictate what price you pay for a ticket, they are a set price worm. though understand as a young fella you are probably on a budget.

My tickets are 70 euro's but I think the upper tiers are 55.

Yeah, I really am

****, I guess I'd pay 55, but hope the dollar gets better first :eek:
I know there were 7 euro tickets for schoolboys at some rugby matches a few years back, am I too old to qualify for these or do you have to go to school in Ireland to qualify (and that was at Lansdowne)

7 euro? Lad, you'd barely get a program for that. Seriously.

nearly sure cheapest ticket for Ireland soccer games in croke park is 50 euro, and FAI tend to sell tickets for 2 games together as they have done with Cyprus(had to take Poland ticket)so if they do this again u will have buy a ticket for Bulgaria game in March.

For all you non-believers, I'll scan my 7 euro rugby ticket from a few years ago if you don't believe me. I'm not really a big rugby fan but I was in Dublin for the match so I went for free (it was a 7 euro ticket, but I got it free). Croker holds more people, so I thought it should be cheaper

I do need a ticket though, does anyone have one available (I'd probably eventually give into 50 euros)

I believe you paid 7 euro for it, just you're not going to get a ticket to Croke Park for that, or anything near it

I gave a guy £30 for a schoolboy ticket for the Iran game. Face value was £2. No problem getting in.

I'm still ****ed off about the fact that I was offered a free ticket (I am incredibly ashamed to admit I don't remember by who on here, if you are reading this I owe you a debt of gratitude, and am sorry I don't remember your username) to the Wales game at Croker and was going to go but I was 16 (maybe turning 17) then and my parents wouldn't let me go (though I was paying :mad:). Now I'm out from under their thumbs and the ticket for the match will cost almost over third of what my flight to Dublin will cost :(

how will the flight from dublin cost a third less than your ticket? :confused:

other way around, the ticket is a third of the flight to dublin
ticket = €55
I'm guessing the flight is around the €150 mark?

Yeah, $220 on Aer Lingus or $230 on American (my math isn't the greatest but that seems about right), I guess I switched it around

Could anyone recommend any hotels within walking distance of croker, thinking of staying down for the Cyprus game as its a late ko. Thanks

The FAI will release approx 5-7,000 tickets which is the Georgian FA's allocation about 10 days before the game, normally these end up being sold on a first come first served basis.

Ring the ticket office about 3 weeks before the game to find out when they are likely to go on sale.

I doubt if the georgians will take any more than a few hundred tickets if even that many.

OK, thanks
Three things though

1.) How much would those tickets be?
2.) Would they be in the Georgia supporter's section (for my first match thats not where I want to be)?
3.) Would I have to be in Dublin 3 weeks before the match then? Because I plan on showing up the morning of the match.

probably 55 euro.

No segregated in an Irish section of Hill 16. Not a problem anyway.

No you can probably pay by credit card over the phone.

Well if they're selling the Cyprus game on ticketmaster.ie I'm guessing they'll have this match on there. The problem is that I'd have to book my plane tickets before they came out so I wouldn't be assured a seat (unless I can buy one off someone here before that)
