OK booked.
DUB-LTN on the last flight Friday and back on the last flight Saturday for €32
Booked the airport Ibis for Friday night. Have a spare bed if anyone wants to jump on the bandwagon.
Probably won't get to see the bright lights or solid gold paving of Lvndinium but should make it as far as the Claddagh Ring for some post-match scoops.
EDIT:
The Claddagh Ring are already promoting the game on their events page
, with shuttle buses and the like, so is probably as good a gathering spot as any, especially immediately post-match?

Claddagh Ring is as good a place as anywhere and a lot have been asking about it already so will be sending that out to everyone later.

Just looking at this one now, the Clan weekly mail has got good information on it....
Missed the trip the last time(thankfully), are people staying closer to the ground or closer to London?

The Claddagh Ring is now opening for breakfast on Saturday morning at 9.30am and we have sent over Connacht flags and bunting so the place will be green.
They have been in constant contact with us for the last month planning for our arrival in fariness to them plus they have drafted in extra bar staff for this Saturday too. The whatsapp message attached was sent by Finbar Holian (Athenry) who runs The Claddagh Ring and he is available all weekend if anyone needs anything.
This message has attachments images.

Shane Joe in Sheridan's Bar in Knocknacarra has a hundred VIP passes for the Claddagh Bar which includes free shuttle buses to the ground if you want to collect them from him.

Should be a big gang there beforehand. Finbar sent us a load of wristbands for all day access to the pub as it will be a busy day. They have free shuttle buses back after.

The Pub is opened from 9:30 so I'd say a good few of us should be there early doors!!
I'm on the Pinky travel plan, so hopefully we should be there just as it opens!!!
Good thing is there are free busses going all of the time - Takes 15 mins to get there.....
Really looking forward to this but also terrified of what could happen
Fair play Finbar and his team as they have put out the "Green Carpet" for us
