    Nice one, shame it's the low flying Cobh rather than the high flying Cork City but hey ho. As far as I remember their ground is ~6k, and about 3/4 of that is standing.

    Easiest way to get there? Train from Cork (~15 miles) then a 20-25 min walk (warning: Hill).

    Cork Airport has Edinburgh and Glasgow flights, no Aberdeen flights. If flying Aberdeen - Dublin, the easiest, fastest and cheapest way to Cork is by bus (AirCoach).

    Cork is a nice, vibrant city a bit smaller than Aberdeen with a more compact city centre. Cobh is a touristy seaside town, last place the Titanic was moored before its fateful journey.

    Any questions you think I might be able to help with, just ask (though I know Cork quite a bit better than Cobh).

    Or £120 return by train all the way from Glasgow Central via Crewe, Holyhead and Dublin!!!

    Let the Euro fun commence in a couple of weeks!!!

    I may go to this. Not been to that part of Ireland before.

    As it happens, I am due to be in Manchester that weekend anyway, so I can get a flight across and back on the Saturday.
