Belfast Blues, over and back on same day?

Nickpop · February 17, 2013

Just wondering if any Belfast/N.I Everton fans go over and back on the same day? Are the flights a decent time to make it back to JL Airport?

I have always made a weekend out of it, but wondering is it possible or is it to tight to get back to the airport after a 3pm saturday fixture?

Loads of us do it every home game .There are over 400 of us in the supporters club and the majority do it on a day return basis with the odd long weekend . You have plenty of time after the game for four or five pints No need to be at airport till half 7ish . Back in belfast for half nine

I refuse to fly anywhere any more so I've taken the car ferry from Dublin to Holyhead a few times. By far the fastest operator is Irish Ferries.

HSS out of Dunlaorghie takes about 90mins.......train straight from the port . Don't know how far away from Dunlaorghie you are.

You come from Belfast for every home game ? Wow. That's commitment !

I think what he means is that we have people (but not necessarily the same ones) over at virtually every home game.

Incidentally, this webpage should give you a bit more advice... http://www.escni.info/travelling-to-goodison/
