    Total dive, over priced and bound to be packed on the day, also usually no way between upstairs and down stairs at the time of big events.

    Price of Wales and the Gate Keeper are the two cheap place and the Walkabout is a fantastic venue for late drinking, huge area down stairs.

    Caroline St (better known as Chippie Lane) will be packed too, about 7/8 chippers in a row just off St. Mary street.

    For people looking for a places that a bit less packed try Cathedral Road, some very nice pubs there such as the Beverly and the Cayo, both do very decent cheap food too. About 5 mins from stadium
    Oh no not them again

    Was only told I was being let go over by her self this morning so travelling this way with Ash with the promise of a ticket (fingers crossed) from some of the Athlone lads going

    One issue I have though is trying to pre book the train tickets for the journey and it keeps looking for a postcode to find my address. Where I live down here barely exists never mind having a post code

    you don't need to book the train. sailrail. call irish rail travel centre on abbey street in dublin, or even call into your local railway station. €82 return pp. but absolutely no need to book the train.

    note of caution: do not attempt to get the train out of cardiff on sunday morning, for you will categorically miss the 17:15 ferry and thus have to wait until 02:40 monday morning for the next one.

    I mean the sailrail ticket, which includes the ferry (foot passenger) and train, is €82 in total. You're paying £43 (approx. €64) before you've even bought your ferry ticket, the €82 covers all that. Call Irish Rail and you can get a sailrail ticket.

    although highly unlikely, it would be good to have a new manager in place for this game...everything has gone so stale

    They'll probably wait will the WCQ draw and hope for a handy enough
    group so a good chance of qualification might entice a decent manager
    to step forward

    I can confirm kick off time will be 3pm. This information was gained as a direct result of my telephonic communication device conversation with a representative of the football association of the principality of wales.

    I'm heading up from London on the day of the game. Anyone know how much return train/bus tickets are likely to cost?

    www.nationalexpress.co.uk

    www.nationalrail.co.uk

    train is £54 return (unless you're staying the saturday night in cardiff, in which case it would be £42 return, cos the saturday evening trains are expensive)

    bus, on the other hand, is cheapcheap, only £10 (though this is non refundable and limited to the services you define at booking time. An open day return in £20.50 and is refundable and a full return (i.e. next day return) with defined services not booked in advance is £29.50). bus is slower though and would necessitate getting up earlier on game day. Plus, of course, it is frowned upon to drink on a bus, but positively classy to drink cans on a train.
