How many will Haifa take to Cyprus do you reckon?

It is well known that terrorists can't swim...

By then Haifa should be without a realistic chance of going through, so I can't see 10000 Haifa supporters making the trip...</strong><hr></blockquote>
like the song suggests, they'll only come to see United.

No way - Hapoel Tel-Aviv went to the Semi's of the UEFA cup last March - it was Huge in Tel Aviv (I was there at the time) - but when the game was switched to Cyprus noone went - I would think the Israeli's will be keener on going to the leg at OT - much more of a speacial ocaision. It's a shame for the UTD fan's too - Haifa is a great town and Tel Aviv is a lot of fun. Then again so is keeping your head attached to your body.

Rednews reported it and besides that I think the fixture list is already out since all the sport sites/channels in Israel are already reporting them...

Don't understand why this is funny. It seems pretty ignorant to me.
