Yeah totally agree GT Milan is crap would have been no craic there at all, Rome is okay been a while since I have been there but a lot better than Milan that’s for sure.

Lads the thing about Milan is you just need to know where to go - a bar called Scimmia in Porto Navigli is one of the best nights out ever. Anyway, roll on Roma. . . . and 3 pts!!!
Waka waka hey hey, we're in Armenia!

Rome has its limitations but Milan has no pubs, Bologna is a great city for pubs not the cafe culture stuff you usually find in Italy, at least there is some places in Rome to go and have the choice.

Will take note of that TP if I ever have the misfortune to be in Milan again.

Roll on Roma indeed and a nice 3 pts, wonder what type of reception Trap is going to get in Rome.

Well from what I hear from Italians it is THE game of the group. Irish people don't realise that Trap is the daddy of Italian football, as big as Big Jack was for us in the good old days. It's going to be huuuige.

Can remember the Italians in 1990 being very generous with the ticket allocation for the stadium so with 82000 capacity think they will be happy to give us 10000-15000 tickets.

Nobody else will bring the support we will bring even for a Wednesday game so this has got to be the best home game for them, and the way the group in now and hopefully with two more wins in our next games it will be a huge game, the Trap factor will make it even more interesting for both countries as well.

Damien McDonnell said as much in the Indo last Wednesday too. "All roads lead to Rome" or some such.

When all the stadiums were shut last year because of new regulations and work needed on them after all the trouble in Italy, the Olympic stadium in Rome was the one that got permission to open first if I remember correctly, its the best stadium in Italy.

Pity about the running track there but still much better than the San Siro, hate that stadium they put away fans in worst place there as well.
