maybe he did mean moll, maybe there is a big prostitute near the stadium! ;) :D She might be looking for some extra business from the fans! :eek:
ha ha!

We would say shopping centre, rather than mall, mall is very american, n'est-ce que pas?

[PaulB]

Isreal won 3-1. disappointing result :( . It easily could have been worse. :eek:
The other downside is that we were frozen with a chill wind blowing across us.
They should have left us at the far side where we had the sun on us.

What made our day is that the Senior team arrived to see the game. They were with us (fans) watching the game for the first half :D. They signed autographs. :D They left a half time. :(

So I understand your in Israel now.
How is it until now?

[Eldad]

Very bad result :-(
After the match I went with two another Irish fans to drink in "Dublin" bar in Hertzeliya... It was very nice.

Tomorrow I go to the Ramat-Gan Stadium after watching 1st half of England vs N.Ireland match.

I did say "It easily could have been worse"
But today match is what we here for!

Yea, I was here since Tuesday morning. I spent tuesday walking around Tel Aviv and Jaffa getting to know the place. Wednesday i was in Haifa. Thursday i was in Jerusalem. :)
I used the public transport system with no problems. When i ask for help when looking to get to certains places, I got a good response. :)
It took a while for me to get used to the detailed security checks and to see the army walking around, but it was to be expected. It something we don't see in Ireland.
But the Highlight was meeting the Irish Team at the U21 game :D :D
Tired at the moment and but I'm looking forward to the game tonight. :D IRELAND, IRELAND !!!

Make yourselves heard there tonight. God I hope we win! :D
Me too, It will make quailifying easier!
