As there are only the 5 away games over the 2 years and maybe a double header thrown in there I'm pretty confident I will go to all the games. I am actually ready to make a return to Cyprus at this stage, a warm weather trip would be most welcome at some stage.
Depending on dates, hopefully them all. Though with the price of flights to Georgia it mightn't be an easy seller. Ya Italy will be the plastics again. Bulgaria and Montenegro should be the best.
Thats classic :DQuote:

Davros, where did he go?his posts were gas, albeit barely legible.Quote:

Hoping to make all, possibly without Cyprus but given they are now far from a walkover, I might have to do it. Georgia is the one most looking forward to at this early stage.

Is this not the nature of the Irish fan?95% of them are event junkies or plastics as some are calling them.It's hardly a surprise that they are not seen as 'football fans'.It's easier to watch football in an armchair!Quote:

Only one defo out is Cyprus.
Between Ireland and Derry out there in the UEFA Cup, I never want to see the place again.
He got banned for mentioning the word 'Pr*d' in a discussion with EG, even though 'erm, I am of that fine tradition.' Sort of last straw with dahamsta. Anyway's he's keeping well. I missed his input on the recent discussions on eligibility and Gibson, Kane et al.Quote:

Great night though.
looking to get to them all but for some reason it appears trickier than the last few campaigns. a double header would certainly ease congestion and it would be ideal if the trips were arranged : Sep 08 (italy), March 09 (cyprus), June 09 (georgia) and double header in october 09 (bulgaria and montenegro). preference in brackets
May do them all this time.
Not really certain if I want to go to Cyprus but the timing of when it is might be the clincher in deciding. There are combinations of double headers potentially available but I suppose we'll just have to wait and see.
prob only make 2 or 3 depends on funds and when they're on. Will do italy and montenegro maybe bulgaria.
Defo not doin Cyprus again (although if last game with something to play for that could be changed)
I wish they could sort the dates on the day the draw was made would love to know now so could start planning (even get a christmas present out of it)
Bus was a bit under half full. Myself and Harpo were the UCD fans in the stand, and we got a lift back on the bus. Plenty of room anyway.Quote:
