do u work for thomson holidays??

Right thats booked with Global Travel...Its seems to be a really good deal 7 nights in Paphos. They have under cut most of the big package companies by a couple of hundred quid. Can't do much better than that without without booking everything individually yourself. I'd say they will have all their places booked well before October so get on board. 100 euro to book and no fee when booking from Ireland. Roll on Cyprus!!!!!!!

Look at this! Thats ridiculous....I don't know whether to laugh or cry....

Unbelievable

You'd be mad to buy a ticket from a tout for this game. The locals don't have much interest in their team so you should be able to get one at face value.

The website offering tickets for cyprus v Ireland at £125 must be a wind up. Surely they cant be serious about that... and I thought Ticketmaster were 'unique'

For those still trying to secure accommodation in Cyprus, Ive found
cyprus-appartment-rentals.com a good place to start. Cyprusair for travel from Heathrow

Probably Larnaca, like the last time with a Friday afternoon kick-off.

Yeah, I'd say so.
But most of us will be there long before that so we should be able to arrange something.
Some of the bars might even arrange a bus if they get the numbers and you promise to drink in their bar on return.

There's about 15/20 of us going from Waterford we booked it last Oct for €475 a skull, for a week, and staying in Paphos, Was in Cyprus years ago, stayed in Limassol, and it was a nightmare with all the British Soldiers mooching around, so looking forward to Paphos, well outta the way

Accommodation now sorted. 3 of us booked into the Napa Plaza Hotel for 3 nights. It's about €225 each but it's single rooms so I'm happy enough with the price.

just booked minibus on day of game to go from ayia napa to nicosia and back straight after the game as our flight is well early home on the sunday ... works out about 20euro a head for 15 of us and picks us up at our accom happy days ..

...just for reasons of security, can you let us know where we should avoid so as not to get involved in any ****e with the British soldiers in Cyprus....For those of you who went with FUNTREK to Italy in 1990 and remember the scenes at the railway station in Palermo after the match, I really dont want to have to run another 200 metres in 20 sec flat... Im now 15 years older and dont think the legs will do it for me anymore

I stayed in Limassol for the last trip to Cyprus when Ireland played and had absolutely no hassle with the squadies. Friday night was their night out and certain journalists from the Star were trying desperately to get a 'story'. In the end the squadies just kept to themselves and there was no hassle whatsoever. Their superiors (the red caps?) are always knocking around to keep an eye on them, and particularly so when there's a lot of Irish football fans around, so they'd have to be stone mad to try anything. It may be different when Irish people are over there just on holiday but when there's the guts of 2,000 Irish in Limassol I think you'll find they'll be very reserved.

On a totally different note, is anyone planning on staying in Nicosia for the night of the game as a bit of change of scenery?
