MetLife Stadium- East Rutherford, New Jersey.

I'll be there, live in NY. What a treat to see Ireland two years in a row stateside.

If anyone hears of any good sections that Irish fans will be making some noise in, do tell!

Tickets go on sale Monday, Mar 10th, though I think the presale started today.

Holds around 80,000, so shouldn't be that difficult to get tix, although the fan boys will be out in force to see Ronaldo in Dunne's pocket.

I'd be surprised to see Dunne out there to be honest!! Hard to know whether he will feature under MON and if he does, I guess it will be the competitive games. Can't see him travelling out to the states post season. Could be wrong though, KK did it and Dunne will have missed featuring for Ireland I guess over the last 12 months.

So who's going to this anyway? Be good if there were a few foot.ie heads going. Give those ybig lads a run for their money.

And think how much more you'll be respected by POSH if you go!

Home games are away games for me, as are the away away games. My only home games are away games in London. :)

And Bonnie, if you think I could put up with another x hours of non-stop machine gun fire random one way conversation you really must be mad. 3 hours from Berlin to Poznan was enough and I'm sure Toronto to Boston is at least double that. It was only proper that you bought the drinks!

Hey, we both got to meet Kevin Kilbane as a result. I didn't realise that that would be the high point of the tournament, a day before we even started.

This is very true. At the time it was merely a silver lining.

Highlight of the trip was Amhrán na bhFiann in the stadium. No question.

Highlight for me was the sing song at 4-0 down in Gdansk. Great craic. Nothing beats a good sing song.

Did you talk through that as well.

Every single member on Foot.ie has one or many strange/bizzare/funny quirks.

It was good food too.
