Brilliant away trip, the best i have ever been on!!!
Just about recovered!!!
Thought it sounded a bit low alright if capacity's 58000, but just noting what it said. I'm sure they must have some basis for that (round sum) figure.
and it was reported in the bari papers on tuesday that the match was a sell out (except obviously the Irish section i presume)
definatley one of the better away trips ..thought atmosphere was class throughout but when we scored and for 20 mins after game it was mad alright! dont remember italians being too loud to be honest?!
locals good except for incident with guy pullin knife on irish guy who was then pulled away by his itlaian friends. liek superstars over there with everyone wanting a pic with ya!
I was in the one of the Bari outlets on Wednesday morning circa 11am and they were still selling away at tickets. Tickets weren't selling that great as there was an article in La Repubblica at free tickets for kids due to the Lippi/Cassano effect.
Have a few alright, I'll stick them up somewhere tomorrow. Some good ones from the square.
The face on your man at the front who's obviously just got something spilled on him is class.
I just hope it wasn't the bottle of beer that I somehow got in.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Yeah thats my mate Classic pic. To be fair I think his face is full of Joy for Keanes goal as I dont think he gave a ****e that he got beer on him. I am just to the right of that picture. Come on Soccerc any other ones near there ha ha !!1

I still haven't recovered yet!
Love the one of Paddy Allen and the two full cases of Corona. When I met him there were very few left and he was worried about the cardborad getting wet in the rain!

I relieved him of his last bottle ... despite me swearing that I couldn't drink after waaay too many beers/gins/rums/wine/other strange drinks the previous night!
You got some decent pics - you must have been sober!
Very sober, one bottle of beer that Tuff Paddy bought me about 3pm

Brilliant picture! I've looked at the other ones in the sequence aswell and I seem to be in a few of them just gone mad! I'm the only girl in the one above. It really captures the moment we scored.
