Think I'll be sniffing round a few pubs looking for a ticket :o :D

I don't know if there will be any other Israeli fans in the Temple Bar pubs... Frasiers (the Celtic pub) alongst O'Connell Street may be a good option as well.

Is the game sold out yet or so ? I must be living on Mars or so, I thought ticketsales were still about to start :eek:

I will just walk around the stadium then and try to buy a second hard card. I got in for free vs the Faroes, got in for 10 euro vs Croatia, and got in for 12 euro vs China. But as this is a highly important WC qualifier, I don't count on that again, I'm prepared to pay 30 or 40 euro or so, not higher. Irish section or Israeli section doesn't matter, as a Belgian I can probably claim a ticket for both as I'm not "in one of the involved camps" ?

Watched a couple of games during world cup 2002 in Oliver St. John Gogarty's in Temple Bar. Great atmosphere and they have about 4 t.v.'s around the pub so you get a decent view even though the screens are a bit small. Kitty Oshea's near Lansdowne is pretty good too. Plenty of room, big screen and a number of other tv's plus you'll have the crowd before and after the match. In fairness though most pubs close to Lansdowne have a decent set up with tv screens.
