Great stuff. I went into Ulster Bank of Monday and they quoted me 2 weeks waiting time at best. They took my contact details as they were supposed to check if they could get it quicker but they never called me back.

I will head down to this lot today.

At least 4 or 5 bars (drinking opportunities) in luton after security, the main one in the shopping area there, another one just off that, food and drink, and 2 or 3 drink/food outlets down nearer the departure areas.

Great ill be like a rooster come mid friday then ! Did you say there is a beer garden in the Sveta ? Good way to start the pub crawl on friday !!

**captkeen** · 29/05/2009, 10:42 PM

hi Guys. Well not long to go to a very important game in Sofia , a city Ireland have not won in. Honest predictions...........

I say 0-0. With no out and out striker i can`t see where the goal will come from but if we win i will be in Mccarthy`s afterwards and if you shout Captkeen Ill buy you a beer

**4 in a row** · 29/05/2009, 11:00 PM

I reckon we can sneak this one. 1 nil or 2-1.

Il take you up and that offer Captkeen

Il have to look for a internet cafe on the Friday night so i can see whats going on in cork for the Rovers game. Hopefully a good weekend with a Rovers and Ireland win

Less than a week away now. Cant wait!!!

Robbie Keane??

I'll gladly take 0-0, thanks very much. It's our hardest game left in the campaign, so a result for us keeps Bulgaria at arms length.

**finbarrk** · 30/05/2009, 10:09 AM

The Italy game will be harder I think.

**The Scientist** · 30/05/2009, 11:11 AM

i have a really bad feeling about this!! would be delighted with a nil all!!

i think our midfield will be out run and out played and i fear 1 nil to bulgaria!

I just saw this travel advise posted on the Dept of Foreign Affairs website. Apologies if it has already been posted.

Worth putting up as a sticky until the game, Admin?

Especially the security advice around the game, as there is a slim chance the native fans will be not as obliging as some. Especially, in the unlikely event of us winning?

**OneRedArmy** · 01/06/2009, 2:34 PM

WTF, the DFA travel advisory status is "Normal Precauions", the same as England, US, etc. i.e. the lowest possible ranking.

Have you ever been abroad for a match lads ffs?!

99% of that notice applies to foreigners coming to Ireland!!
