Andorra Venue

Anyone any idea when the venue will be announced? I think i remember hearing they would announce it at least 60 days in advance. I think that has been and gone now so it would be nice for an update from UEFA/FAI.

Maybe they're waiting to see how we get on against Slovakia and Russia first.
If we get 6 or 4 points from these matches then we are in with a great shout of qualifying and obviously more Irish will travel to the away match against Andorra.
But if we lose both these games then i would imagine not many will travel to see Andorra away

Man, I'm really stressed out about this. My mate lives in Spain and he's been checking the Andorran websites (he's fluent in Spanish and knows a bit of catalan) and apparently the Andorran FA looking to have the game played in Llieda, which is two hours away from Barcelona by train. The venue should have been anounced yesterday as that was the 60 day deadline but there's nothing on the FAI or Andorran FA website about it. I'm flying out of Barcelona early the morning after the match. It's a disgrace that it has not been anounced yet

That aint good franko. Theres 6 of us heading to watch that. We have booked for a week and everything. Not the end of the world if it doesnt happen but hopefully the FAI will be aware many have booked already and will ensure the game will be in Barca.

Good point by Roger as well though. Interest will fade if we take anything less than three points from Slovakia and Russia. 4 or 6 and it will be some party.

Qualification is in our hands. We are well capable of taking 3 points at home against Slovakia and at least 1 away to Russia.
Then its a definite 3 points away to Andorra and fingers crossed (because they're a tricky side) 3 points home to Armenia in the last match
