About time, I thought you lot were going to Clyde games instead. Text me when you know your plans.

4 of us flying from Glasgow to Belfast on the Friday morning, returning on the Saturday night. Got a nice 5 star hotel on the Shankhill Road, included in the price is a complimentary petrol bomb!

Radders or Noose, dust off the "Jody Morris Loyal" flag!

Will already be there with Mike, draped in his Andy Jackson flag. Text us when you land.

Cannot wait until Friday now, it's going to be a cracking day out. Just hope the weather holds up so we can have fun on the terrace (if it is open).

Last train from Lurgan to Belfast is at 22:36, so hopefully a fair few Saintees on there.

The Noose obession with terracing continues! If its not open, you can always do what you did at Cappielow and stage an invasion!

Who else is heading over? Really looking forward to it now, hopefully be a healthy Saints support over there? Anyone got any good recomendations for boozers in Belfast?

The terrace won't be open, I'm pretty sure it has been condemned.

I'm sure that Glenavon have recently been awarded almost £1M of funding to improve their ground but it won't be spent on the terraced end, they need to spend it on one of the side stands as the access no longer meets current health and safety standards.

It has still been good enough to host various European matches this season though, with Linfield, Distillery and Crusaders all playing their home matches there.

The all time classic is The Crown opposite Betty Lavette's hotel, Robinsons next door is good too.

That's a nice looking boozer. I like old school boozers in comparison to the poncey wine bars that have popped up all over London and the rest of the UK. Belfast is a grimey city so it's only right you visit some equally atmospheric pubs. Hope the prices arent extortionate.

...unless of course its a poncey wine bar like The Saint's bar in Shoreditch
