    Exclamation Travel Resources and Info for LOI Games

    Just thought the it would be handy to have a thread devoted to traveling to and from games, seeing as every second game is away. Might be good to share info on good bus companies / limo hire etc.

    There is a very good deal here for Dublin and Cork fans that people might not be aware of ...... www.GoBe.ie

    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    As someone who does the Cork-Dublin route a lot, I can tell you Aircoach are better than GOBE for it.

    Aircoach run from Westmoreland Street rather than Busaras, and they're 2 euro cheaper for a return. They're also more frequent.

    I've gone to a few games in one, recommend as well, few good DVDs and few beers and away you go. Normally fit eight but if six is reasonable then go for it, eight is good too though.

    Typical small time thinking that is holding this league back. You don't go to games in a Limo because you CHOOSE not to go to games in a limo. Every club should have a fleet of limos parked outside its 20000 seater stadium.

    But they choose not to.

    You display a complete lack of ambition - the clubs should be providing them!

    That's what I meant! And on top of that they should be paying fans to come to games, the drivers should be highly trained professionals and Puff the Magic dragon should be league president.
