JamboSean Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Wondering if any one can help me here. I'm off to Northern Ireland on Saturday and the floods seemed to have hit Belfast pretty hard. My problem is I'm visiting Newry, so I'll need to get there from Belfast on Saturday morning. I've seen on the news that the motorways are pretty badly hit. Will I have bother trying to get to Newry from Belfast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i8hibsh Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Probably not 99.9% of the Northern and southern Irish take the glory route and support winning teams. I can count on one hand(and god knows i've met enough of them) the amount of Irish that support a team that is not : Liverpool Man Utd Chelsea Rangers Celtic biggest bunch of glory hunters on the planet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a large Jambo support there at 1 point, the Ulster Premier HSC, and the contact address was, wait for it, Orangefield Avenue! Sorry, off topic.

Will I have bother trying to get to Newry from Belfast? I wouldn't worry. They have some of that new fangled "drainage" over there. I'm sure it'll have kicked in by then even although it is rather experimental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
