Ok so the return leg will be tightly fought and will be coming up on the 4th of June 2011.
As alot of people don’t have a clue where Macedonia is I’ll make it simple
The away trip will consist of either choosing to travel with a travel agent direct from Dublin or to fly to London and then take one of the airlines to skopje(capital of macedonia)
Please see David Smith’s comment below for other ways of getting there!
Good websites are skyscanner.net or expedia

I won’t be running any deals for this trip as with the logistics so best to check the forum or contact me in the comments below for help
Hello, When does the FAI Ticket office release ticket applications for away fixtures? I am traveling to Skopje for the game on June 4th 2011. I already emailed the ticket office and informed them I want to apply for tickets, and they said they will get back to me closer to the match date. This is my first time applying for a ticket for an Ireland away fixture so any help would be much appreciated.
Email the ticket.office@fai.ie and ask them to put you on the list for tickets. Closer to the date they will send the application which is normally 4-6 weeks before. You won’t have a problem.
Sign-up on ybig.ie/forum aswell and the lads there will fix you up with tickets if your stuck.
For info, there are no direct flights from London to Skopje, with the excpetion of Wizz Air (from Luton), who are scheduled to start direct flights in June.
Only a few airlines fly into Skopje – flights are from Slovenia, Serbia, Austria, Germany, Czech Rep and Hungary.
Also, as I live in Skopje, I can say that while there are plenty enough bars and restuarants for visitors, there are not many hotels so best to book ahead.
David, thank you for your comment and assistance for travellers.
Hello , my name is Filip 🙂
Two years ago I spent great time with Scotish fans , last year that was with Liverpool fans and again I spent great time , and now I hope that the same will be with you . I will take you for sightseeing Skopje and we will finish this with great traditional macedonian lunch with all traditional foods . In Skopje there are great caffe bars or restaurants , a lot of things to see ( historical monuments , museums , churches , mosques , wonderful fortress , great parks ) , so starting in Friday , and finishing before the match at Saturday I think we will have enough time .
