Is that 9.45 Irish time? My Estonian isn't the best!

If people are thinking of going to the game but finding the flights are very expensive or sold out, you can always go to Helsinki and get the ferry (2hrs / €60 return) from there.
Sorry yeah - I'm still looking to get out to the match, so I'm thinking in Estonian time. 7:45pm Irish.
The Ryanair flight is still there at E250, so the uptake isn't huge at present.
Interesting stat when Estonia have scored their goals:
Of the 15 goals they have scored:
4 were first half goals and 11 were scored in the second half.
9 goals were scored in the last 20 minutes of the game.
4 goals were scored in injury time.
Can't afford to switch off at all against these lads.
Estonian journalist's view of drawing Ireland:

I live in London and the affordable way I found was train to East Midlands Parkway on Wednesday night, sleep at airport for a few hours, Ryanair flight at 6:30am to Riga, Latvia, bus from Riga to Tallinn (apparently there is a 3km walk between the last train station in Latvia and the first one in Estonia so a train journey is out) and then the reverse trip on Saturday.
I also found some accomodation in the centre of Tallinn available on Hostelworld.com
In the first half the Estonians fluffed 2 top notch gilt-edged chances.Quote:

Are the FAI not selling Season Tickets as of now? Surely there's plenty of people who to guarantee a ticket for the play-off would buy a package with the 2 or 3 friendly games we'd play at home before Euro 2012 if we qualified. If we don't qualify they'll be back to being played in a near empty stadium. Why haven't the FAI taken advantage of the interest/demand and re-open season ticket sales to try to shift those tickets in case we do go out?
Because the tickets are already guaranteed for people who went to Armenia.
Except those like me who bulk bought with the club and are still not guaranteed their 2 tickets.
Worthington extends olive branch with offer of inside line on Estonia.

I'm a block booker since 96 and I'd to miss the Armenia game cause of work. I think it's extremely unfair that some event junkies that went to Armenia game have priority over me.
I took 9 tickets for the Slovakia game and haven't missed a competitive home game in years. I was just speaking to the FAI and they said anyone who bought from their ticketmaster account will be getting an e-mail allowing them to buy tickets but I've no option for tickets unless they go on general sale.
What a load of ******! Rant over
Can you feel the love? :love2:
Estonia 2-1 Faroe Islands 11 Aug 2010
Estonia scored two goals in injury time to comeback from 0-1 down on 90 minutes.
Faroe Islands 2-0 Estonia 7 June 2011
Had this been an aggregate knock-out score, the Faroes would've gone through 3-2.
Yes, but we're not quite as bad as the Faroe Islands!
are the tickets not on general sale today with ticketmaster !!Quote:

Slovakia? sure that was weeks ago.
Someone saying it's sold out already, how is that possible?
Did you book your ticket from the FAI or Ticketmaster?Quote:

Where the 4,800 unsold tickets Premium seats?Quote:

How times have changed from the opening international game against Argentina. Stewards were tasked with handing out free tickets that day and they literally couldn't give them away.
And I paid 50bills for that.
It doesn't pay to be a supporter.
Ya but at least hopefully there will be a good few johnny come latelys who won't get anything.the proper fans will.
I missed the Armenia game but have gone to all the other home games this year (plus I endured all the away games on tv). I wonder if the FAI would make an exception for a "proper fan" . . . . . . . . how many "johnny come latelys" showed up in the Aviva for the first time this season for the Armenia game? Judging by the attendances throughout the year . . . quite a significant number
Based on what?Quote:

My advice is to rather waste time moaning on here, embellish yer stories and keep sending to The FAI.
There are bound to be a few returns anyway, though they probably won't appear till the day?
Which isn't much use if you live outside The Pale....
