    Anyone going to this?

    Should be a cracker of a game after we beat Andora, lets hope Slovakia can beat Russia again so we can win the group with 2 wins.

    Have tickets for Block 116 South Stand, Where's the best place for atmosphere haven't been to the Aviva before.

    Best place is singing section which is lower south stand

    Saying that, the atmosphere is pretty bad compared to the old Lansdowne but hopefully will so much riding on this game, will be like the old days atmosphere wise

    Don't hold your breath on the atmosphere. The place is the worst stadium I have been in atmosphere wise. That shitty little excuse for an end runs teh entire stadium. There is no reverberation whatsoever. Absolute disgrace it is. In that stadium as it currently stands it will NEVER be anywhere near like Lansdowne Road.

    I have stopped calling it Lansdowne and now instead call it the Aviva, because it's not worthy of the name. Very poor attempt at a money making venture.

    I've been to the Aviva a few times, atmosphere is mixed, Europa League final was good, mainly due to Porto supporters...Will also be heading along for Armenia game too...

    Cox named ahead of Long to partner Doyle.

    Strange, Long is keeping him out of the West Brom team.

    Other changes are as expected Dunne coming back in place of O Dea and Kelly starting in place of the suspended Ward.

    I,ve not seen a lot of cox so im still not certain what type of a player he is. I personally think Doyle and Long are very similar,so maybe trap thinks cox brings something to the table that one of them does'nt.I'm not saying Doyle and Long cant play together,just trying to rationalise why trap would pick cox over Long.To me Long is the form striker out of the three.

    Can't understand dropping Long, I'd have him ahead of any of our strikers on current form.
