This has NOTHING to do with the old firm, apart from the fact that we are using Celtic Park. From our previous games with Ireland, any fans that we met and spoke to had a bit is disdain towards the old firm, like many of us.

This, to me, is 2 passionate group of supporters getting together to support their COUNTRY!

You telling me 55k were sold then 3200 allocated and we have been buying about 2,800 tickets on SFA site? Come on you can't believe what you are actually posting surely

Yes. How not? When I bought mines the place was practically sold out, yes batches have been released since then but nowhere near 6000.

Absolutely deluded.

Exactly...many bars I have visited down country in Ireland have images of larsson and celtic upon the walls.seem to recall irish fans wearing celtic tops over at the carling tournament.so how can it not be playing slightly into the irish psychy...?

I WOULD THINK 15000 PAddys in the ground, we will still drown them out I hope. Absolutly fuming at the sfa for what they have allowed here. But pounds mean more to them

3 thousand odd in the away end, about 5 thousand scattered in amongst 55 thousand Scottish fans, we'll down them out.

Anyone know if the Irish FA offered the SFA more than 5% at Lansdowne Road in exchange for more tickets at Parkhead?

If not I can't see what the issue is.

Because the Scottish FA wanted as many fans as possible in the home end?

When it comes to Football you should always, always accommodate your home fans first. If the Scottish FA reckoned the could sell 55 thousand Scottish tickets why would they offer any more to the Irish? They aren't there to help the Irish fans into the game.

Then you'll have dublin to look forward to and try and get yourself some irish lass to get the leg over with

Hahah!! Dublin should be awesome in the summer with the Saturday KO!! Hopefully the same convos aren't going to be coming up regarding home support/away support for the aviva I'll have to give these boards a miss!!

I have to admit I'm pretty skint, I've managed to spend an absolute bomb on Scotland trips/holidays this year (3 trips and 2 holidays) so I'll only be heading to Dublin if we get a result at Parkhead (which I'm taking the car for aswell to save pennies)

2 weeks today, Parkhead should be bouncin. :)
