Israel Away - the headcount

**Beavis** · 19/01/2005, 10:46 PM

I know it seems early but considering anyone whos going will know so by now,
I was wondering how many site members are confirmed as travelling.The headcount prior to France gave a good indication of the phenomenal numbers going to Paris and I'm interested to see if we'll fill our 4-5,000 application for this game.Maybe Peader might do the honours of producing a a list similar to last time.
Here goes: Myself and Bro (2) Dublin - Tel Aviv March 25th

it appears that their trip kinda fell through due to lack of numbers. a third party has taken all the people who booked with them for the same cost i think. there is a phone number to call listed on another site (peoplesflag.com message board.... if i'm allowed mention another site!).

4 of us going to Israel match.

note that ticket applications to be into fai by tomorrow

Beavis, ya lazy sod, make up your own list.

4 of us going.
3 from Dublin and myself from London.
They're going via Amsterdam and are spending a few nights there.
It will be interesting to see what state they're in when they arrive in Tel Aviv.

While youre there, ask the Israelis how they live with themselves, taking land that doesn't belong to them, etc

2 of us travelling to Israel,

departing Dublin Thurs 24 March 07.00 hrs,
staying at Sheraton Hotel, central Tel Aviv.

I am leaving from Lisburn, Co. Antrim, on Wed 23 March and my friend and myself are staying at the Great Southern Hotel Dublin Airport. Our flight leaves early the next morning so we thought it was a good idea to stay the previous night and relax without worrying about missing our flight. I would be very keen to hear from any other Ireland fans with similar plans who want to meet up for a bit of craic and a few beers before we all jet off the next morning.

Tickets not likely to be a problem. From yesterday's Indo:

The FAI expects to have an allocation of 3,500 tickets for the World Cup qualifier against Israel in Tel Aviv on March 26 (Easter Saturday) but only 700 tickets will be available for the June 8 game in the Faroe Islands because of the capacity of the stadium in Torshaven is just 7,000.

Faores a different prospect. By the time officials, players and Treacy have their's not many left for the rest of us.

I'll see you out there kid.
Haven't had a backwards flag picture in ages.

**Beavis** · 21/01/2005, 1:45 PM

Okay just scanned the Israel thread and theres two more which have confirmed there.
Slow2anger (say 2)
JGKyne (3)

That makes a total of 32 for foot.ie members and associates,just one less than the entire Swiss support for their Tel Aviv game! I'm going to estimate 1,300 - 1,500 for this game.Should be great,see yiz all out there...

heard that interest with package operators was quiet before christmas but picking up a fair bit now. reckon 1,500 max though myself. roughly same as basel last september so decent enough support
