I'll be in Galway for the match v.s Drogheda United!

[maiko99]

Hello!

I will go to Ireland for the match of Boys in Green v.s Wales and Slovakia and, of course, for Galway UTD v.s Drogheda UTD!

I will fly to Dublin via Paris from Tokyo on 23rd at 0930 here (0030 Ireland), then change the flights to Galway on the same day by Aer Arann.
I will arrive in Galway at 1915, so I hope I will find the fast taxi or cab and get Terryland Park in time.

I am Looking forward to seeing you all very soon!!

Maiko

you should get a taxi from the airport easy enough. it will only take about 10-15 minutes. See you in Terryland!

[GUISAUltra]

she lives in japan,works,comes over and she watches the matches like everyone else... hardly jumps through hop's

ya watches the matches like everyone else, except for the slight fact that she travels from Tokyo to Terryaland for games. slightly longer than going from foxes to terryland

[frog-gufc]

fair play to her thats some journey, would put a lot of people to shame

[gilberto_eire]

i know that i did say she comes from japan ultra if u did read my comment right... the sligo fan asked what did she do like she was a toy or something i just said same things as everyone else doesnt jump through hop's or do magic tricks!

[GUISAUltra]

the way your comment reads though it sounded like you thought it wasnt really anything special and everyone does it. just a bit of miscommunication

[frog-gufc]

ye can sort it out tonight up niteowls :mad: fair boxing:p

[Paddyfield]

Well done Maiko. Galway United should name the new Stand in your honour.

is maiko from ireland and living in japan? nice story

[Terry]

shes a Japanese girl that started to follow the Irish team when she meet some GUFC supporters at the world cup over in Japan/s.korea. She now follows the Irish team and if possible gets in a GUFC match if theres one around the same time. She was here for the last game of the season last year in Kilkenny too.

Safe journey over to us Maiko, see you Friday nite:)

[gufct]

Look forward to seeing you friday Maiko. I met Maiko at the world cup in Japan she was wearing a Roisin Dubh Top and I told her I was from Galway and she took off her sweatshirt to reveal her GUFC Jersey an absolutely lovely girl and not a bad Irish Dancer.

She actually spent a few months at NUIG and got friendly with Mike Alllen who introduced her to the wonderful world GUFC as he did to her friend Rin Taro who I also met in Chiba waering a Mayo Jersey to go with his United Scarf.

I think It would be Good craic if we could do a little song for her Friday night at Half time....... Maiko Give us a wave, Maiko Maiko Give us a wave :D

she was a student in galway before WC02 and followed both galway and ireland when she lived here AFAIK. a celebrity fan if we ever had one. cian o'connell did a piece on her recently enough - perhaps he should do a follow up piece for next weeks paper

[maiko99]

Thank you for all your kind messages..!!


I decided to rent a car at Galway airport, so I will be able to get to the Terryland if I don't lose my way..
I hope I will buy a match ticket there... Please keep 1 ticket for me!

See you all tomorrow;-)

[scotsbeer]

hi maiko,
it will be very difficult to park the car anywhere near terryland on friday night. the car park will be full by then but you should be able to park on the dyke road and walk maybe ten minutes to terryland. see you on friday.
good luck with your travelling
