Slovakia Away (8th September 2007) - Match Thread

he Slovak Football Federation has confirmed that the Euro 2008 qualifier between Slovakia and the Republic of Ireland on September 8th will take place in Bratislava at 20.30, local time (19.30 Irish Time.) The match has been fixed for the Slovan Stadion, Tehelné Pole, Bratislava, and, under UEFA regulations, the FAI will receive a ticket allocation of 2,500 tickets which represents 10 per cent of the stadium’s capacity for this game.

Because of the small allocation the FAI regrets that it will be unable to take orders from non-FAI block booker account holders for this game.

Going to be a another long day in the Pub with all the cheap beer and looking after AidoM when he gets drunk and starts sticking labels on anyone that moves ala San Marino.

thinking of getting a flight to bratislava from milan as its dead cheap. Is accomodation still alright or is it all booked up?

---

TBH honest Paul, id say accommodation in Bratislava will be next to impossible to get that weekened. We only started looking in early May and it took me about aweek to get anything sorted and that was with a couple of hours online every day. Good luck though. What part of God's own county are you from??

Oh Jesus :eek:

I rang the FAI earlier to find out when they would be notifying applicants as to whether they would be getting tickets or not. They said applicants would be notifed in the next couple of weeks. That's quicker than I expected. Here's hoping.

Patience lads :p

I thought that under the rules the list goes up 2 Months before the games so if Stu is on the ball (as usual :cool:) there's less than a week to go for the Slovak waiting list and less than 2 for the Czech match
