What kind of support do you all reckon will come down, and what will be the split on daytripping / overnighting ?!
Just an estmate would be great if anyone cares to hazard one.....

I'd say there would be a 25/75 split overnight/daytrip. In terms of numbers, I couldn't say, what with the time of year etc. But it looks like maybe 200 for Ulster if thats any guide.

Have just booked a Room at Jurys in Limerick for the night of the 27th. . . .EUR 75.00 for a twin/double

No need to rush back after the game. . . .can enjoy a few festive pints

Yeah we're in Juries too.

Going to head down and back on the train, not too expensive I think about €30 if I remember rightly.

Surely if you're a season ticket holder their should be no problem with tickets. Am I wrong?

Should we be concerned ?

I asked Aine what the story with tickets was for the Thomand Park fixture (of which she said details will become clearer in the coming weeks). . but she said that the game is on in Musgrave Park

The ML website says Thomand

I didn't say that

Just aswell I've booked the Jurys in Limerick - there should be a good number down for the game (and some like me staying overnight)

If there's a bus, though, I'll probably be tempted.

Agree with you on the train option, but you'd want to be careful about timetables !

Tony Ward in today's Freemans Journal also said Musgrave

The Irish Times was certain it was in Thomond. Said it was our first trip there since '95.

Daytrip, hopefully the branch will organise a bus for us supporters.

I wouldnt rely on the branch for anythinh. The only thing you can be sure of when the LB is concerned is that the supporters will come last
