    It's more than a rumor, but no firm dates yet: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8271556.stm

    Apparently a visit to Northern Ireland (as part of the UK) is under consideration.

    The pope will not visit Northern Ireland.

    2012 likely year for a papal visit to Ireland.

    Yes, I heard the same, to coincide with the Eucharistic Congress.

    Would think so, possibly in Croke Park. I dont think that the numbers that turned out in '79 would turn out this time round. If he was to return, the Irish Bishops who i am sure would be organising the trip should ensure that regions last time around are visited this time. Last time he went to Knock, Galway and Limerick and the other regions of the South, South West and South East as well as the mid lands were not visited.
