Your last point is exactly why i cant see why people are complaining surely the money from this match where ever it goes, is much needed and appreciated.

It goes to United and the builders of New Landsdowne.

PHB · 04-08-2010 11:31AM

All I care about for tonight is no injuries. Everything else is just irrelevant.

Bout time they got payed too its some stadium fair play to them

Dublin_Gunner · 04-08-2010 11:38AM

Just been given 2 tickets for this tonight

Can't wait to go.

Hopefully the league XI give a good account of themselves, and play some nice attacking footy.

Should be an interesting encounter.

pitty about the stupid design of the metal supports (can't believe they messed that up, not need for it in this day and age)

that the big load of metal going all around the underside of the roof, yeah it takes away a bit from the stadium, had to be done i suppose maybe its because of the curving shape of it

It is not simply that it 'takes away from it', in certain seats it blocks your view. From certain seats it is not possible to see the TV screen (for TMO in Rugby) from certain seats you can not see the top of the rugby posts. Might not be all steel support issues, some might be angle of the stand itself. Was talking to people who were at the rugby at the weekend and they were the problems they had. No excuse for poor sightlines imo.

I'm not sure where my tickets are for - but I'll post my findings on the subject when I get home later.

Yeah there has been rumblings about sightlines during the rugby, but the were mainly to do with the TV locations I believe.

Rugby actually have a bigger concern in that the north stand actually blends the rugby posts in so the officials had a hard time judging if kicks were going over.

I was there at the weekend and had no trouble from my spot. In regards the ball being in the air you have to be at the very very upper rows to have that problem, and the ball has to be a good bit up. I'm talking the last two / three rows.

It won't be a problem for soccer though. I'd say even goal kicks will be visible.

Thx

Shows the idiocy of shoe-horning in a modern stadium in that space. I've said it a million times, they should have sold the land when it was worth crazy money and built a bigger, better stadium elsewhere.

thats the squad according to ManUtd.com

Shame that Scholes and Giggs are coming over, very disappointing. Suppose they are being kept fresh for the community shield at the weekend though.

Especially when they've been playing a radio ad all morning with Scholes doing a voice over saying "See me play at the Aviva!":pac:

VW 1 · 04-08-2010 01:52PM

Anybody on here know what the chances of getting tickets for the match outside the stadium are?

I rang Carrolls and the said they are sold out, is that just their allocation or will there be more available at the fround as per the fai site?

JP Liz V1 · 04-08-2010 01:54PM

Out of curiousity how much were the match tickets?

Tickets will also be available on Tuesday August 3 from the reception at Aviva Stadium (12pm to 5 pm) and on Wednesday August 4 (match day) from 9am to 5pm.
After 5pm on match day, tickets will be available at various locations around the Aviva Stadium, including Lansdowne Road and Shelbourne Rd.

from the fai site.

PHB · 04-08-2010 02:01PM

45 or 60. I'd say you'd have no trouble getting them outside the stadium, and if you drive them down, I can't see why if you're willing to take a bit of a risk, touts won't have tickets leftover at the end.

for f*ck sake, get your facts right before sprouting off rubbish.

lower deck tickets are 60euro.
upper deck are and behind the goals, are 45euro.

premium level are 75, 85 and 100. the average price of a ticket is about 50euro considering not many of the public will purchase premium tickets.

as regards the restricted viewing, if you think the premium level is restricted, then your having a f*cking laugh.

This should give you an idea of what your view will be like from any given area.
