    Anyone know which channel this is on?

    I presume it's still on Sky in the Uk, but is it on RTE or TV3 in Ireland?

    After all the fuss in the summer the whole issue seems to have gone quiet

    From what I can gather, all home games are on Sky Sports and are repeated an hour after the final whistle on TV3.

    All away games are on Network Two, and the PPV channel on digital, can't remember the name, the one that has the Celtic games.

    Hope that helps.

    On Ski 1

    I think this game will be shown free on SKY 1 but the rest of the aways will be on the Sports subscription channel. Setanta is the channel that shows the Celtic games.

    Swiss Tickets

    All tickets for forthcoming games are block booked and while we're still in with a chance it'll be difficult to get your hands on any. Try www.fai.ie anyway but i wouldn't hold out much chance

    All that's on the FAI website now is about ordering tickets for the Russia match in Moscow so it's a bit out of date! Tickets for competitive matches don't usually go on sale to the general public. The block bookers will get them and a certain number are given to Eircom League clubs.

    Landsdowne Capacity

    Approx 34,000. For the next WC Qualifying campaign though, bucket seats will not be allowed and that will bring attendance down to 22,000.
     
  9. In Japan, we will be able to watch this match on live by PPV! I have a satellite TV, so I will send a yell to Boys In Green in front of telly from Japan...!!
    My friends, who followed the team during the World Cup with me, will go to Lansdowne Road and they will wear Galway GAA jersey like me in Moscow, so I hope you will see them there.

    Because of the time lag, I have to wake up around 3:30 am in the morning to watch the match.....
