That is Evan Ferguson tied up with the republic I beleive. No chance of a a Rice like defection to England now.

Ronnie Whelan played a total of 53 times for the national side between 1981 and 1995.

Mad to think McClean will play nearly double that between 2012 and 2023.
The opening up of Eastern Europe changed the Euro qualifying. Yugloslavia and the USSR broke up between 1990 and 92.
There are more matches now cos more teams.

Even the finals are different. In 88 there were 8 teams. Now there are more than 20.

Ferguson is from Meath I think. Rice and Grealish are second generation at least

Fergusons mother is English and some English wanted him to defect. I am paranoid now about losing any talented players to the English after the way the Rice scenario played out.

Although I think that Ferguson was never likely to drop us as his dad works for the FAI.

Injuries hampered Whelan. Also, I seem to remember there was a fall out between Whelan and Big Jack.

How hard would it be to get tickets for an away game vs Netherlands at end of November?

You have to apply through FAI. Dutch away will likely be oversubscribed as allocation is 5% of capacity of Amsterdam Arena, which is about 2,400-2,500, I think, and it's handy to get to. Athens was oversubscribed (2,600) for smaller stadium, but everyone got sorted as Greeks upped the allocation at FAI's request. Tickets for oversubscribed games are allocated based on your away record. Without an away record, you'd have next to no chance of getting one for Amsterdam. You could try buying one among home fans if they go on general sale.

As he sId, you have next to no chance of yiur first purchase being Amsterdam. If you know any committee men at a soccer club, or depending on the LoI club a member/st holder try them
