ciaradexy, Looking forward to visit Ireland again, bothe North and South. Turbojet is my horse's name, Turbojet Jet Stream. Can't wait until I meet the 4.5 Irish and have a beer with them. Other then the game, I was up in Penna and bought a newspaper from Dublin and was dated 1745. I will donate it to Trinty College. The paper needs a new home. Hope to see you "Downtown" Dublin.

Turbo, Im sure all 4.5 million of us will be just delighted.
Your hotel is not in the safest part of the city so be careful.

Ciaradexy, There is a rumor down here in South Texas that the Pittsburgh steelers will be over in Dublin next year for a pre-season game. Right now, just a rumor. Anyway see ya in 6 weeks. Tell everybody I said Hi. I was born and raised in Butler, Pa, just north of Pittsburgh.

So far its reckoned that 90% 0f the tickets were bought by yanks and the rest went to people from all over the world. This is not something Irish people are interested in.
Turbojet, theres no such place as 'Downtown' in Dublin.

Bythebay, you sound like a,hateful/resentful person. I wouldn't want to be living in your skin. It must be tough being you. If you ever go to the USA, you will be treated much, much nicer than I am sure you treat the "yanks". You should be thankful for all the money the Yanks will be bringing in you maudlin Irish. Go Navy and go Notre Dame!

bythebay, wrong as usual, you little instigator. I personally know about 15 people from Dublin that will be attending, and thats just ME. It's a sellout for a reason, TONS of Irish will attend, and it will be successful and YES it will boost the economy which desperately needs it. SO WELCOME TO THE AMERICANS! You'll all have a great time!

Doesn't make any difference to Ireland or the people in Ireland or Dublin. People here don't watch teenagers trying to avoid getting injured. Our matches have far larger attendance and are on an international level. This is only suitable for the maudlin Yanks who know nothing about Ireland and feel more comfortable with their teenagers' games. Pitiable.

Great news for Ireland and just goes to show how much the USA
and its Irish ancestors mean to EIRE. Also another reason
to gloat over any Yank who tries to work an accent.
