totally agree gerk. but if an irish fan is charging any more than he paid for them then he's a scumbag but i don't think we ll come across that. i see lads wearing celtic jerseys at away ireland games so would you be against that? personally i think people should be wearing the national teams jersey. i wont be wearing my united jersey out there.

Glad to see that getting to Toruń is at the top of your list of DOs!  For a DON'T I would also add don't get into any fights with any Polish football hooligans and of course don't mix beer and vodka (of course am sure you will still try this though...but you've been warned!!!  ).For more DOs and DON'Ts check out this page on my site: http://www.toruntips.com/dos--donts.html" rel="nofollow - http://www.toruntips.com/dos--donts.html

Try to eat some Polish food, it's great for soaking up the beer. Get a load of meat into you, recommend the grilled sausages and the steaks, nothing better with a pint.

When i was a young fella in my pomp, i got talking to this young wan in a fine North Dublin establishment full of boggers. Average enough looking country girl who looked good in the dim lighting but you could tell she thought she was a model. Chatting away for a few minutes but when i got her a drink she turned her back & walked off with it. I was in disbelief so chased after her,turned her around & grabbed the drink from her sinking it in process. The look of disgust on her face was priceless..... She was what i call a typical Irish girl.

Yes but make sure it's Żubrówka vodka...this goes very well with apple juice. Żubrówka is actually slightly yellowy-green colour and has a blade of grass in the bottle. The grass is picked from the fields where the Polish bison (Żubr) roam...and legend has it that the vodka is that colour because the bison piss on the grass!!!

I have never seen that or heard of that happening here - must be a Krakow thing. You sure the lads weren't in a 'Night Club' aka brothel. Torun is a nice town, the bridge over the river is awesome and town looks nice, not sure about the night life though. Wroclaw is a lovely city, Krakow is also lovely to look at but it's ruined by the religious nut jobs and hooligans - in krakow last year they had protest marches against Halloween...do I need to say more? Some places worth seeing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malbork_Castle http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westerplatte http://kornik.pl/en/home/ There are plenty of lakes around Poznan doing grills beside the beach, I'll be taking my mates to a BBQ for the best steaks 'karkowka'.

Żubrówka is regarded as women's vodka but it's ideal for tourists :) Vodka chilled, ice cold and neat is the best way to drink vodka, a shot of ice cold vodka followed by a slug of juice is the way to go - stick to the vodka only, you will be bolloxed just doing this for a few hours. Do not over do it and drink too quickly, trying to prove your ability. I've seen so called pro vodka drinkers on their ear after a few hours trying to prove what great vodka drinkers they are. |

IMO A Celtic shirt is the only acceptable 'non-Irish' shirt to wear to an Ireland game. The fact that Celtic refused to back down when threatened with closure for refusing to take down the Irish flag at Celtic Park is reason enough for me to wear it. Not to mention the numerous other Irish connections from its foundation to michael davitt turning the first sod at Celtic park etc etc Dont want to turn this into a debate, but the fact that its green and white helps too.

Correct - Hibs founded in 1875, Celts founded in 1887 (first game 1888).
Also Dundee Harp founded in 1879 with the same ethos as Hibs. They went bust not long after forming. Dundee Hibernian founded in 1909 and became Dundee Utd in 1923 in order to attract a greater fan base.

another interesting thing i found out a few months ago was the SFA had a huge orange influence in it and the pricks barred the irish harp from the hibs crest for over 80 years and it was only reinstated in 2001.
pat crerand the former united player said in his book abut the orange pricks that had major influence in the scottish team and he said he wouldve prefered to play for the republic as his grand parents were from donegal and he also had more of an affinity to ireland as he did scotland ------------- Wings?

Couldn't give a toss what lads wear to the games. It's their business.
