Had a quick look at the playoff fixtures to see what order the matches will be on the box over the 6 days in November.
Italy are playing Sweden in the the San Siro.
There was a lot of talk on here about Italy making it difficult for away fans so they were going to put their home match in Palermo or somewhere.
I presume the Swedes will travel in big numbers to Milan, easy to get to, just the 80,000 seats, so imagine the Swedes will have no problem getting tickets.
So that talk was a load of crap then.
Or have Italy decided that they will cash in on a big attendance in the knowledge that they should win the tie easy enough?

2 out of 4

I can’t wait for the “do your own draw” thread for the 32 team WC finals if we do qualify

I must go back now and trawl through 42 pages of what team out the four possibilities strangers predicted Ireland would get

Up to £215 today! Good ol Ryanair, bumping prices before a draw has been even made! flight prices are all to do with traffic and availability. Probably a good 200+ people over last few days have gone onto Ryanair and checked  Dublin to Basel making prices go up. I remember when they put on flights to Lyon I must have been one of the first to book it (only returning from Lyon to Dublin) it was €40 about an hour later it was €400 And a hell of a lot of people have locked fares for 24 hours, Denmark on Sun we have for €52 return Basel on Sat or Sun for €80 return, loads of people have availed of the low fares, causing the prices to go up and now can relax and enjoy the draw   who does fare lock?
