Haven't been to Kilkenny since 2002, Great town from what I remember, would love to be there. I Will be in Meath for Christmas though .
According to the online box office there are only 150 tickets left out of our 2,300. Brilliant news..........over 2,000 of us there on Saturday. Should be fun!!
To get us all in the mood - up yours Reading! Lovely Wayne Routledge goal with great build-up passing play, including Shaun Derry - is that Ale Faurlin with the final through ball?

I could see that back happening though, back in the days when we had Diakite, Mbia and Cissé playing.
Me and my two Sons were there mate. Routeledge ran straight towards us before slotting the ball home. We went truly wild................that was the first time in that season that I really began to believe that we would win it!
That was a very good game. A Friday night game on Sky it was. Rangers fans were in full voice. Routledge didn't even take a touch for that goal as far as I remember.
Hope you all get to see a good game - I will be on BBC's "2 minute" updates - looking for a resut COYRs
You should setup a "token" account with Bet365, just deposit $20 into it and you can watch the live stream of this match at 7:15AM EST Saturday Nov 9th (8:15AM AST) - 12:15PM in UK. I setup my account during our 2010-11 promotion winning season, when a good number of our games were live streamed on Bet365 - I gather in UK these games are under black out rules for Bet365 clients, but not overseas. For football games that are not live streamed on Bet365 you can also follow a live graphic (the "wave") for each match, that allows you know in a real time schematic to follow exactly what is happening in the game with captions like - corner, throw in, dangerous attack, free kick, injury etc, and when a goal is scored, you see an immediate score update, the words GOAL! and hear a loud roar. That BBC Sports 2 min delayed match text (sometimes longer) is an awful way to follow our games, but it is still useful for teamsheets, substitutions, recapping play etc. A number of our games are also featured for live match commentaries on BBC London 94.9 radio.
What a season that was - we were there - I remember Mackie was in the Sky box to the right of the fans and we sang his name all evening. Their fans were giving us stick, then Routledge went through - and the rest is history! What a celebration that was.
Just ordered tickets for my eldest lad and his mate. Only about 150 left so fantastic support from the faithful, sorry i can't be there with you all so make some noise (Sorry didn't see Col's post saying the same)
Yep.......2,300. So hope we stuff 'em as we have so many Reading fans around us!! Me and the lad enjoy the train journey to Reading, as their fans always assume we're Reading fans till they look more closely at our tops. Great fun!
Cracking turnout.....Col can your lad make a sign saying "Hello to the NOT606ers in Kilkenny", see if it gets picked up on the telly, we'll wave back!!!!!
Great stuff! I hope you and Will have a crackerjack of a day Col. Same goes for all those shysters across the Irish Sea, I'm sad that I can't join you.....I tried.
Ahh, the memories! Game of the season that was! I watched it down the Crown and Sceptre, fantastic atmosphere, great goal by Routledge.
getting warmed up here in brissie...hope all you that go have a great day out and see us get a decent win. hoping to see a few changes and a Plan b from harry. Good luck guys and a brilliant turn out....!!
Precisely ................ The Aussie continent will be watching live from the Pig & Whistle in BrisVegas and make no mistake ............... we will be totally vocal !
