I managed to get a ticket in the home end, used a relations address in Belfast.Quote:

Absolutely crazy in this day and age in a stadium that size they are only going to let in 4 or 5,000 max
We lost a pile of money on that game due to the OTT policing costs. There wasn't a hint of bother, not even a controversial chant with the pope having died a couple of days earlier! Remember a few of us ended up drinking with a few Linfield lads until the small hours.Quote:

Ended up missing half the second half as the lads in there were buying us shots and all
Is Larne FC setting the limitations or some else like IFA, PSNI etc
PSNI from what im hearing.
It is a farce though attendance will be way down on what it could be
Numbers set by Gardaí/UEFA/PSNIQuote:

Never been to a game there before - was really looking forward to it, but they’ve made such a bags of the ticket situation. Very disappointing that this game will be played in a mostly empty ground now.Quote:

Bit weird - I think they've relaid the pitch and this is a tester game for it?

Kicks off in five minutes. Hugh Parker left at home with an eye on the playoff tomorrow
6,000 tickets sold for Larne/Rovers tomorrow….
The poor man's FAI Cup Final :pQuote:

Would have been a lot more traveling if it wasnt so restricted.
You didnt even get a ticket as a member or season ticket holder you got a voucher which you exchange outside the ground for a ticket, i assume after being identified as a member / ST holder.
Details being sent out later tonight suposedly.
There wouldn't be any more people travelling.. we were offered 2,500 and 1,600 took up the offer.
I'd say there'll be quite a few interested neutrals there too amongst that Larne number. Maybe as many as 500 at a wild guess? I was toying with going myself, but it's a bit of a trek and the early KO pretty much killed the idea for me.Quote:

Home officials were reckoning about 3000 at it
Toyed with the idea myself but decided against it. Would have been a novel game to attend as a neutral.
Just saw the result there. Disappointing as you say, after being 1 up but well in the tie.Quote:

It's baffling that the attendance is limited. They (UEFA, PSNI, whoever) wouldn't limit the attendance to that if it was a north/south international match.
Windsor is an easily policed ground as you're going to get.
