Republic of Ireland V Nigeria - Friday, 29th May 2009 - Friendly - Craven Cottage

[Drumcondra 69er]

No bad seat in the ground. Irish fans main section is Hammersmith End, Nigeria are in the opposite end. If you want to get in and out quick go to the main stand side on to the pitch but if it's a nice summer night there's no better place to be than the Riverside stand behind which you can buy bottled beer & drink it overlooking the Thames.

Yeah, that's where we were last year, nice spot alright, looking forward to it again....

All I have to do now is figure out how to get around London, doesnt look that big on the map..

I cannot imagine it any larger than Roscommon Town on a friday evening or after Mass on the Sunday..

Its a bit more like Tulsk on a Mart day

Greenforever are you still organising that taxi from Gatwick to Fulham on the Friday around 1.

Yes, as my pilot is on a day off and Eddie has a fear of buses and trains, going into Brogans or somewhere near by, how many of you on the flight?

Are you bringing your butler?

[Scram]

Has anyone secured reasonably priced flights from Dublin?

The best I can see with decent flight times probably because it is a long weekend is €152

Will be on my own for that flight. Paul is saving his pampers for Sofia.

My tickets arrived at my door in less than 24 hours. Impressive. Really looking forward to this and to top it off I don't have to catch a plane to watch Ireland for once!

You must be looking at a 2h30 drive though are you? Drove from Stansted to Derby a couple of times.

According to this article http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/foo...sh-Europe.html Shay is playing through an injury to close out the campaign with City. Will he sit out the NIgeria match or be a doubt for Bulgaria?

[tetsujin1979]

I'd rest him against Nigeria. Give Westwood and Kiely a half each. Apart from a run out in the training camp in Portugal, Westwood hasn't had a chance to show what he can do at this level

[the doc]

So whats going on regards the squad?

Whens it announced?

Will Trap be naming a squad for both games?

Wonder if there will be any new additions?

[republicofwhite]

I'd like to see more of this from Westwood;
