Republic of Ireland vs Greece - kick-off 7:45 - live SS3

Mr.Nice Guy

Sorry for everything

Didn't see a thread for this. It's being billed as the austerity friendly. Who will prevail?

Ireland XI: Forde (Millwall), Coleman (Everton), O'Shea (Sunderland), Clark (Aston Villa), Ward (Wolves), Whelan (Stoke), McCarthy (Wigan), McClean (Sunderland), Brady (Man Utd/on loan at Hull City), Cox (Nottm Forest), Long (West Brom).

Westwood is out with a groin injury so Forde comes in. Line-up looks decent to me.

I'll say a 2-1 win to Ireland.

20,000 @ €20 = 40,000 @ €10

I assume they've sold the concession/programmes etc out to another crowd.

Not much of the Green Army turned up for their award.

Tickets were on sale for as little as €10.

Mr.Crinklewood

Bit embarrassing when Platini is there to give the Irish fans an award for being so great.

Patser

Fecking knew it. Aviva looks empty and the fans are scteered in mini groups around the stadium, so that'll kill any chance of an atmosphere.

And the irony is UEFA are giving us an award on pitch for Best Fans from Poland

Thought that too. Not surprised though by how many haven't bothered to turn up.

But at least they are the green army, not the ones who went for a piss up to Poland in the Summer.

Where?

20 euro for a ticket in the skies.

No way there;s 20000 there.

Were they. I only seen €20 minimum price for Adults and they were in the lower corner of the pitch. €10 for Children yes. But with sectors being priced differently it has only scattered the fans

Ticketmaster.ie has tickets for €10.

Had a bet on Mitroglou at 11/1 yesterday to be 1st scorer. He is into 7/1 now.

Hope that happens and then we come back to win 6-1

Definate peno

Long Cox up front

Stevecw

Def peno

Francie Barrett

Greece has goal machine Samaras playing

Patser

Also very curious that I'm watching this on stream with Arabic writing in the corner but George Hamilton and Ronnie Whelan commentating - while RTE can't show it live due to Sky deal

BobbyPropane

Penalty again.

Francie Barrett

What a joke! Foul nudged there!

Bound to score.

Stevecw

That 2nd one was never a peno, but shows Long is way faster than that cb. Hopefully exploit that, but Trap prob won't notice.

Yes they do.

Stephen Ward is terrible. Offers nothing. Does nothing.

Where? I can only see 20 euro tickets.

BobbyPropane

Liking this team.

Mr.Nice Guy

This is a pretty good start.

Patser

Northern Ireland 1 down after 5 minute to Azerbaijan if anyone cares

ticketmaster.ie - a few sections have €10 tickets.

BobbyPropane

That was beautiful.

Cox should have buried that,

Great play.

Francie Barrett

Coleman brilliantly linked up with Long there, Cox should have done better.

DEVEREUX

great passage of play there

Trampas
