T�rsv�llur Stadium holds 7k.

Only had 5917 against France & that's their only home game so far from what I can see.

You can actually see the hill in the pic in the link that we can watch the hame from if we can't get tickets.

Yip, got my refusal letter today bast*rds.

Anyway I think I'll go along anyway, was thinking of getting the ferry from
Lerwick(�114 return) in the Shetlands but it doesn't arrive in Thorshaven until 3pm on the day game, and thats not even considering delays.

May now take a flight but these are getting quite expensive, anyone know the cheapest way there.

We were exactly the same. Were going to do the Ferry, but its too tight for time. Id check out Ebookers or travelocity who we used. We are doing Mon-Thurs through them from Gatwick. Always the boys in green too. Hope that helps

Crud, we'll have to drink as much duty free as we can in Dublin Airport boarding lounge (so lets check in as early as possible) & on the plane.

Ok then.

Well jealous of all who are makin this trip!!!! And to those who didn't get tickets and may have to watch from the hill. I reckon that the hill looks class. Maybe its not me place and I haven't just been rejected an all but yis could turn it into a positive. I'd love to be watchin Ireland play in the Faroes on a hill that it bloody well looks higher than the stadium. Anyway best of luck to all headin over yis ill have a great time it would be hard not to.

We are on the flight on Monday morning too. Sounds like there will be a few of us on it so should be a laugh. The flight as far as I know is out of Gatwick South 9the bucket and spade terminal) so we should all just head for the bar and get beving there :D well thats my plan anyways :)

They were the flights we wanted to get on but they were booked out by the time we realised the ferry was not an option. Get you to the Windmill bar at the back of stanstead - Its a whether spoons, so its nice and cheap :D They do a good breakfast in there too. We are Gatwick bound, so see you all in the Faroes :)
