Just a quick post to see if there are anymore people on the european doubleheader who are travelling from belfast or any of the other northern counties. Just doesnt seem to be much of a representation apart from my poor self and friends?????? :confused:
you're not alone...
3 of us are heading. we booked the jet2 flights from monday-thurs to prague ages ago from belfast to prague.
i dropped out of the monday flight however and am now going dublin to vienna on previous friday too :) ..shall be using the return to belfast howver.
looking at the flight prices, there seems to be quite a few travellign on teh same flights too..
we are also booked on the easyjet belfast-bristol flight for the welsh game (fri night to sunday night)..
Were actually flying into prague on the previous thursday and the trking it to bratislava and back. Headin home on the friday after the czech match. Were boating it from dublin to holyhead for the wales game, its been a while since ive done a boat journey, but its good to see more northern representation on the trip. Pints are on yoou aidz1!! :DQuote:

Still wish we'd hired the banger of a bus we take to matches though - Belfast to Dublin, belfast to Bratislava - how much of difference can it be?!
Really looking forward to the trip though.
Cheers mate. Take it your staying at home?Quote:

Train up and down to Bratislava from Prague.
Derry v Pats live on TG4 on the Friday night so we'll be finding a base to watch that on.
Keep me posted on that one Kev, should be a bit of craic anyway - game wont be till 9 45 or so Slovakian time? Should give us plenty of time to get the train from Prague, check into our hostel, get suitably scared and head into town for the match!Quote:

Its a fairly new intiative but there's been a decent start made. Fair play to the lads who've put the effort in. All sorted for Slovakia, but like a lot of people, most of us are still stuck for the Prague match.Quote:

I reckon we have to have a few "wee Jackie" integration sessions before you meet the legend. I'd advise bringing in Matt Doherty as a consultant to oversee the lamb shanks and bacardi.
The house in Belfast will be empty that week.......:D
Dublin airport is now just as handy as Belfast City or Aldergrove at about 1 hour.
Aye but I suppose Belfast flights for Ireland matches are less likely to shoot straight up. Actually from home in South Armagh, Dublin airport would be closer in miles and much more accesible - wouldn't pass through a town from Crossmaglen to the Airport!
There is obviously a better choice out of Dublin but as you say, prices less likely to shoot up, and Belfast is always an alternative if the away trip is some where more accessible.Quote:

12 of our crew for Bratislava & 10 for Czech game
