"A lot of football success is in the mind. You must believe that you are the best and then make sure that you are. In my time at Liverpool we always said we had the best two teams in Merseyside, Liverpool and Liverpool reserves."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS :
How do I book?
Just call on 01 4755010 or email us at sports@marathon-travel.ie, tell us which match you would like to go to and how many people are in your group. We will check if the match is still available, if it is, you choose your payment option and we will email you the confirmation later that day.
When do I get my tickets & accommodation voucher?
We send you your accommodation voucher by email . The tickets are delivered to you in your hotel room on the morning on the match at 11.00am (for 15.00 & 17.15 match K.O.) and 10.00 (for 12.30 matches) Unlike other companies; we use our own staff for deliveries. This means that the tickets always get to you. Using a courier company is too risky because sometimes hotels refuse to accept ticket deliveries ?? And we all know you cannot trust the post in this country.
Once I've paid are my tickets guaranteed ?
Yes - once we receive payment your tickets are guaranteed and at the price you paid for them. From time to time we have to change prices usually due to unanticipated demand for a particular game. For example, the final matches of a season will decide the championship so prices tend to jump significantly once it becomes clear which matches could prove to be the title decider.
What payment options do I have?
You have a number of options available.
1) Credit Card, there is charge of 3% for paying by credit card as these charges are passed onto us from the banks.
2) Laser / Debit Cards, there is no charge for paying this way.
3) By cheque,
