If you still live in Dublin an Everton supporters club meet in the Mercantile for every match
4 Euro a pint during the game
I’ve gone to a few but if I’m not at the game I watch it on an IPTV service at home
Tickets getting harder to get I’ve heard
I use a ST belonging to a mate of my late father when I go over
I go with his son and grandson
Cheers. I live in Kilkenny since 1990 and when I travel it is with the Mrs and daughter usually. We pick matches that we can book off the OS as soon as tickets go on general sale, although last few have been poor obstructed views.
As I'm sure you know one trip from here with a family is the guts of €1,000 when you include car costs, air fares, hotels, spending, grub. Far cry from I think it was about IR£15 return with two overnights on the boat sleeping anywhere you could find once the bar shut about 2 a.m. - then just beer and grub money and ST£1.90 into the Street End !
I was in the old ESC Dublin in the 80s and we travelled together regularly on the B&I - meetings were in the Auld Dubliner. Then I was in the Irish Toffees (Jim Kearney RIP) when it was first formed.
There are a few Blues around KK although we don't tend to get together for TV matches in spite of trying to organise this in the 90s - I gave up as few were turning up pleading family / kids etc pressures
