I am glad the Europa League sold out. It would be very nice to have it back again, did anyone on this forum go to it? I am a little surprised, with greater tv and internet access, that more Irish soccer fans do not follow some of the other European Leagues apart from England and a bit of Scottish Football. Two teams from Portugal were in the final then, and AVB was manager of one of them, their fans were very colourful around the city center as well. Strange time to be in Dublin with traffic blocked off etc. Also I noticed out by the airport there was loads of photographers on the road beside it the day before. If this was to do with the soccer final it must have given Ireland greater exposure/media coverage than the visit of Queen of England and Obama (forgot about him), but maybe I am wrong on this.
