Meet Ray Houghton and give him a hug
The FAI have announced that Ray Houghton will be at the largely run-down, and rather unnoticed, Leinster Football Association office for a meet and greet with anyone willing to pay upwards of €50 for Ireland's next World Cup Qualifier against Georgia.
The spiele is: 'Supporters purchasing tickets this Saturday will be able to meet soccer legend Ray Houghton, who starred for Ireland in the 1990 and 1994 World Cups. Ray will be on hand at the ticket office to meet supporters between 1.30 pm and 3.00 pm this Saturday (Jan 24) as the build-up to decisive clash against Georgia at Croke Park on February 11th continues.'
The address is 43 Parnell Square, Dublin 1, however simply look for the smokey door that looks like it's still grieving the civil war. They will be selling tickets there from tomorrow until Feb 10 (excluding Sundays) from 10am to 5pm. General admission: €50/€70 Premium: €85
