Just in the door and nealry dried out from last night . Normally not one to be critical and have to agree with a lot of what has been said on here so far . The stuff out side the Harp is getting old and tiresome with some more interested in being the next viral sensation the being there for the football

Having watched the entirety of it on a stream, I can't help but feel the joke was on you here!

Exactly. Can't blame the fans for having some form of entertainment during a match we only had 20% possession.

Lads reaching into people's cars to be the horn was ridiculous. The worst was the "You fell over" chant when they knocked the lads moped over. They looked surprised when he got pissed. Probably just as well for their safety that we didn't qualify for Russia
Danger here, OH NO

Or most importantly being a danger to themselves. At least 2 fellas badly hit by cars.

Also I think we understated the pick pocket situation in Paris, loads seemed to have been dipped in particular on the metro to the stadium.
time is the stuff that life is made of, don't waste it.

Agree with all of this. Right twats outside the Harp, banging car windows and jumping on bonnets for "the craic". Idiots of the highest order. Met a good few lads who had their phones lifted too. And also, some right twats at the game too. I didn't have the honour of meeting the guy booing the anthems though.. We seem to have gathered quite a few idiots recently

Really enjoyed the trip and the craic. Always great to have a catch up with everyone. There was 6 of us and 4 of us lost/got our phones stolen.  Thought the metro was very dodgey, a fella literally lifted our mates phone out of his pocket but we got it back thankfully. No luck for the other 4 of us though haha.

Good few lads got phones and wallets stolen over the trip. 

Personally was only over for 1 day and the mixture of not eating and no sleep meant the drink didn' take long to have an effect on me don't think I've been as drunk at a game in a while  (normally only have a few pints before the match) from what I can mind of the game wasn't enjoyable at all so maybe it a good thing I didn't have to watch it sober LOL

Had a great trip. Thought the craic in the Harp bar was good as well. A fair bit of giving out about it but some of the lads must have been singing for hours straight almost. At least there was an atmosphere compared to a few footballs being kicked about. Only stupid thing was some people running around the cars. A few lads got hurt. Looking forward to Cardiff and Poland already. Think Poland will be the best if the year.

It was certainly one of the toughest nights for me following Ireland.
Torrential rain again last night.

Leaving Paris now and already thinking of the next Ireland trip.
