I think all fans should bring a flag with them to the game, we are not particularly noted for are flag carrying.
So Everyone going bring the ol' Tri-colour if we have 20,000 of them in the stadium it would look savage.

I thought we had a good number of flags on display at Paris, and also at Cyprus.........but agreed one each held a loft for the National Anthem would be a fantastic sight for our team.....and intimidating for the "few" Germans who managed to get tickets!!:DQuote:

I also think it would be a great idea for all travelling fans to wave 100 euro notes at the match to show the Germans how well the Irish economy is doing. Hopefully The Star are reading this too.Quote:

But i do agree that everyone should fly a flag on the day to create a serious spectacle for the germans !!
i saw one of those flags at the airport in palermo in 1990 and it was huge. i'd say the cost of transporting it due to the excess baggage costs has ruled out bringing them and their like to anymore away gamesQuote:

Forget Ebay go to your local Euro store that used to be the pound shop.
Bought 3 flags last week all 5 by 3 €2 each.
They also had car flags for €2
good call golfer
i picked up two 9ft x 5ft flags on ebay , one of them cost me 1p!!
wil cost a fair whack to get some lettering on but worth it !
I got my 5x3 (got it in one of the Carrolls Irish gift shops in Dublin) less than €10 if I remember correctly.
I've 'WELL LILY' on it
(Waterfordese for hello Mum):p
I have a "No passaran" flag that Pat O banton made years ago and has been taken to most games, we also have 5 big tricolours between 4 of us. Picked up one in a sports shop for 80p :eek:
I'll take the spare one (flag that is:p ) if you want :DQuote:

Whats' the story with buying even a small wavey flag in Dublin Airport? Is that likely to get confiscated? Have a 6" x 3", but wouldn't mind picking up something like 2" x 1" just for a bit more colour.
I had enough hassle this weekend getting the flag off my 8 year old cousin in Luton at the weekend:o . He has taken a shine to it, so I need to make sure he gets one to keep when im back along with a programme. Are you heading out? If the international friendly was anything to go by we will all have a great time:DQuote:
