Archie McSquackle Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Anybody booking for Dublin while the flights are cheap and taking the hit of the Welsh team win? Edit: wrong IrelandSligo is in the Republic but a long way from Dublin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapowzer Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Yeah it’s not much difference between Dublin and Belfast, Dublin has a toll road however. I’ve got a friend in a Dublin so if we end up in Wales I’ll go and see them. £17 return 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapowzer Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 €2 each way from Dublin Airport to Drumcondra Train Station and €15 each way on the train. 3 hour journey. Will have to stay in Sligo overnight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Some Red Hot Sligo Action ETA - that Colts team played more attractive football in that one game than we saw in the 2nd half of last season Edited June 15, 2022 by Swello 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsome_Devil Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Losing to a team our youths beat before would surely surpass MyPa/Stjarnen (considerably) on the f**k-up scale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YassinMoutaouakil Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Bala play European ties at TNS' stadium apparently, seems a bit easier to get to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Wiki says they use Rhyll's ground for European ties due to regulations. Don't know how correct that is but it would be better for accommodation I assume. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am - given we don't know our squad and I know nothing about either Bala or Sligo - alarmingly confident. I seriously hope the pros are not as complacent as me otherwise we're in bother... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we'd have a trip to England to play a welsh team - that adds a bit of pleasing weirdness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZX1886 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 They’ve got to move it to Wrexham if we play in Wales, TNS will see us with only about 300-400 tickets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 How many did we take to Llanelli? That woould surely be the guide for likely demand 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDI to NOC Thursday to Saturday, £42 on BudgetAir.co.uk, £46.50 on Ryanair's own website. €19.50 return on the bus which is just over an hour, 4 services a day from 10am, 2 hours apart. As you'd need two nights there and the prices are crazy I'm happier to go to Dublin. Also car hire prices are cheaper originating in the North than the Republic.

They don't have to do anything just to accommodate us. TNS, Rhyl and their own grounds all see to be around the 3000 capacity but they're not going to keep their own fans happy by moving it too far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess you believe we should move all our fans out of one of our stands at Fir Park when Rangers/Celtic come calling? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure UEFA competitions don’t allow for non-seated capacity, which is why it is to be moved in the first place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
