Is the game in Larnaca or Nicosia?
Mod edit -
Post any info on the Cyprus game here. I'll keep a summary of links and what have you in this post.
For other info on the game, see -
Flights
Accommodation (hotels to campsites)
Charter travel (incl tour operator bookings, charter buses, taxis, etc)
Places (towns, internal travel, reccies, etc)
Pubs (incl meet ups)
General (things to do, other chat)
Anyone any idea what time game will KO at. I know it was 8pm when we were there in '05. Booked flights and arriving in Larnaca Airport at 3.45pm?? Too close or what?

It will be in Larnaca. They have played all their qualifiers in this campaign in Larnaca.Originally Posted by rambler14

In Trap we trust
Its official. The FAI have confirmed on their website that the game is in Nicosia.

Close enough to Larnaca...just have to arrange a bus with space for a bag of cans!. No problem
I've got a horse!
Paddy you have time to contact the FAI by e-mail or letter and ask them to send you out an application form for tickets. The closing date for these applications is 15th July

Cheers I will do that. Any idea how much tickets will be?
This game will not sellout. The FAI are still accepting applications.
There is no need for a ticket exchange list now. Juast apply to the FAI even if not a bber.
If it is like previous games there.
10-15 euros for home fans
30-50 euros for us.
No, the FAI agreed with all other associations of the group that the price of our tickets at away games must be the same as the price charged to their own fans
San Marino are going to be a handful as the group goes on." - Steve Staunton reacts to performance against San Marino.
So a rip off.........unlike Croke Park

It was supposed to be that way the last time as well ........................ but didn't end up that way.
We were ripped off

The ticket exchange thread for this one is here.
Why would the FAI need to do that as there are already FIFA and UEFA guidelines to this effect?
Some countries ignore them and get away with it.
Whats the stadium like?
Grand, but uncovered for the most part. Out in the middle of nowhere, so you'll need a taxi back into town after the game even if you're staying in Nicosia. The taxi drivers will look for those going out to Ayia Napa/Larnaka/Paphos first (the bigger fares basically), so if you're staying in Nicosia, it'll be a good 45 minutes before you get a taxi.
Ticket Application arrived today............€27 how bad? Still cheaper than that morgue they call Croke Park on matchday!
LESS OF THE BULL NOW!
Or 9 times the price of Sofia.
The local price will be interesting. 10 euro in the past - can't see it being 25 euro this time (assume that is the price + 2 euro handling fee).
