Hertha is so bad at the moment. They lost on the weekend against Cottbus and plays horrible. I think St. Pats have on Tuesday definitely a big chance. You can't get a better chance! If Pats stands save in the defense and play about the wings, they could beat Hertha. Hope for a big crowd on RDS. Then that could be also an important case to make the germans still more nervous.
I know Ticketmaster and the club are selling tickets, but will they also be available at the ground before kick off?
Yes, definitelyQuote:

Feel free to say hello/abuse me if you spot me!
Pats fans are heading to the new grandstand if anyone is interested.
I want to tell you shortly what's the tenor in germany to the match. The german football magazin Kicker wrote on monday in a article:
Favre: "It could expect us a hurricane"
At first the elimination in the 2. round of DFB Pokal and than the defeat in the last bundesliga match against Cottbus: Hertha BSC stand under huge pressure before the ireland-trip.
"We have an advantage, we are 2:0 in front" say Hertha coach L. Favre. "But St. Patrick's Athletic will show a other performance as in the first leg in Berlin. It could expects us a hurricane tomorrow. We must be able to abide mental the pressure." [...]
So you can see, Hertha BSC is nervous and affraid because of the last bad results. They aren't in a good form.
I'll be there, I work quite near so I won't have to run out too early.Quote:

Have many tickets been sold so far???
Will be there with my Rovers jersey, in FULL voice and in the thick of it with their hardcore support! will be with a few mates from work so we will be singing with the lads. Lets try and create a hostile atmosphere and really try to unsettle the Germans.
I'll be there in my Iraklis shirt (a Greek team - friends in Thesaloniki)
along with KianD - presumably in his Harps colours
Must get a Pats scarf tomorrow.
Really excited by this game - Pats COULD get thumped, BUT, they could pull out a great result - just like they did against Elfsborg
Someday soon an Irish team will qualify for the Group Stages of a European competition - it COULD be tomorrow.
:ball:
I cannot make it myself but whatever the result and pattern of the game I hope there is a great atmosphere there tomorrow. St Pats are a great club and deserve huge credit for doing so well in Europe this far.
The only hope for Pats tomorrow is that Hertha are not "up for it". If Hertha are as motivated as they were in germany for the 1st leg Hertha will win. They gave Pats a lot of respect leading up to the first game and they got their reward.
Anyway, good luck to all and we will all be praying for a Pats win (somehow) tomorrow.
Hopefully there will be plenty of high balls into the box for Quigley and/or Fitz/Murphy to get onto. The important thing is not to concede a goal a early which usually happens teams from Ireland at this level.
Best of luck tomorrow, play with confidence and without fear. I will be frantically F5'ing the text updates as I'll be in work until 7, all the best.
If we score first we have a chance, simple as that.
About 6,000 expected according to TV3 tonight.
I think the main thing is to win the game, it will be hard to win 3-0 for an outright win, 2-0 is possible with an early goal about 1-10 Mins gone. 1-0, 2-1 would still be a great win.
What's goin on?
