QuoteI'm definitely going.
I'm going either way but I wouldn't count on the two of us.Originally Posted by Poor Student
Not sure if that's directed at me Pineapple or just a general point to others (I did get your text). I perfectly understand, I'm just seeing if we can somehow muster the numbers. They do exist but are rarely all available at once. Are Bald Student, Student Mullet, Aberdonian Stu or John83 interested at all too? Did you try to get word to the others above?
I'm definitely going.
Unless 12 more (at least) can be russled up very fast you won't be going by hired bus. I can't contact anyone else but the ones who've already agreed, so it's up to others.
I'll go either way.
So how will we be getting down? Train, car? It doesn't bother me but I'll get whichever one is later.

Bus at 4:00 will get you there at 7:00. Bus at 2:30 will get you there at 5:30.

Train at 3:05 will get you there at 5:35, train at 4:25 will get you there at 7.
I really don't think I can head unless I get back the same night.
Same with me probably.
Hence the reason to push for a bus. You won't be getting back with public transport. Rope some mates in.
I'll try but they're lazy shíts.Rope some mates in.
The drinking thing is a good selling point.
Dman,
I can't log into btid at the moment. Not sure if anyone got back to you about the chance of a lift, but I'd say there's no chance unfortunately. There's only one fella that drives back to Dublin immediately after the match, but he can't make it on Friday. I stay down with the parents on the Friday night (they think it's for their benefit that I'm home once a fortnight).
As I'm sure you're aware, there are no trains or buses back after the match (what kind of a country do you think this is, eh?) so you'd have to stay overnight if you're going by public transport.
If that's the case, forget about the 4pm bus. Friday traffic and stopping in every village and hamlet means that you wouldn't make it to the RSC for kick-off. The 2.30 bus would have you down by 6. Also, do you know the Rapid Express/JJ Kavanagh buses? They go from Ulster Bank, George's Quay (opposite the Custom House) at 1.15, 3.00, 4.15. I often get the 3 o'clock which gets you down between 6 and 6.30. From the city centre, you have the choice of a bus, taxi or 15 minute walk to the RSC.
Didn't get any response, but didn't expect any. Thanks for the info on the buses.Dman,

By the way, I assume we have a bus to Drogheda still left in the budget?
Yep, that's included in the budget. Can't be missing that one!
