I presume a few here are on board the 8:45am boat on Friday from Dublin City to Holyhead?
I'm planning on starting the first sing song of the weekend!!
With the forecasted bad weather, I can hear your chant now......."Throw Up for The Boys in Green..............":D

That was close.......we are are on the 8.45am from Paddington:...still if we get lost on the way we'll just follow your trail of cans!:D
The 845am is for the riff raff! Yes, we're hoping this train won't be as mad as the torture ;) encountered on Train Bratislava - Prague. :D

And with my "dislike" for boats that may well be the song of choice on Firday morning.
That said I thought while the forecast was for rain I didnt think high winds or rough seas were forecast???

Plenty of rain, but the wind/sea is going to make for a pleasant sailing

Be very afraid and get your seats early. I hear that they have been doing a deal on train tickets ie buy 1 get 10 free.

just head straight to the station after your last drink in the Club......you'll probably only have half an hour to wait then!;)

If you and GT are "fully stocked" perhaps it might be prudent of us to switch to your train from our 8.45am "Riff raff Express":D

Just had a message from my neice or is studying at Cardiff University advising/reminding us that the Doormen on all the pubs and Clubs will strictly enforce their "NO SPORTSWEAR (i.e. Football jersies ), or Trainers" policy on saturday night (no problem obviously during the day )

Joke if they do!!Ok the trainers thing I can understand but what are people supposed to do bring a change of clothes to the game??
No problem in Dublin getting in most places after Ireland games in jersies.
You reckon the Welsh publicans can afford to turn away 8,000 Irish fans who are wearing Ireland tops?I think not!

That wasn't meant as an attack on you more of a general statement that it would indeed be a ridiculous scenario if we were to be left with no where to drink after the game because we were wearing the green jersey.
Apologies if thats the way it came across.

No problem!:)
I think GT is probably right, in the trendier pubs and clubs ( Where most of the locals would go to avoid the "football types") it may well be a no-go with jersies, whereas some of the other pubs may not object, especially if there are Wales jersies present as well

GT is always right! LOL .Aye and you can wear a fancy "going out" shirt under your jersey just in case! Footy shirt in pocket! :D

Indeed any number of pubs will turn one away for wearing an Ireland Jersey on game day, I have personal experience of this. And yes, at the time I was pretty sober.
However, my worst experience was going to Coppers after a game with Ash who was actually pretty drunk at the time and for some reason that I can't remember I was actually relatively sober. Anyway, going up the one step to the coppers door I managed to stumble, while Ash sailed up there looking as sober as a judge. He was let through by the bouncers while I was apprehended and told to take a long walk and have several coffees and then I might be admitted.

Once your not wearing an old pair of white fila runners than you wore on a building site/played football in you wont have a problem.
In fact you'll see an awful lot of people wearing "good" runners out like lacoste, gola, retro addidas etc etc
Have yet to have a probelm wearing jersey after any rugby match in Cardiff but it could be different for football

I think the sensible thing to do is to check with the pub you are in before the game and see what rules they will be applying after the game. It is going to be cold so have a t/shirt under the green and swap over if they wont allow the green. Job done.

Any chance you could ask ( or get someone else you know ) around today about the likely door policy, and post back here?:confused:....A bit cheeky I know, but might help those who are not staying in a hotel that night.

That happened to us two after the Wales game in March - The bouncer wasnt letting any of us in as we had jerseys on. We probably should have taken the hint then and gone back to the hotel instead of finding another bar :D
For every pub that turns fans away on sat I'm sure there will be another only too happy for the custom.
Oh, when I asked my mate from Bristol about pubs to go to, he just said to head to St Mary's street.
