One other thought to give you an idea of the max cost. Quite a few Irish companies offer hotel and match packages to Liverpool games e.g. Apm Promotions www.apmpromotions.com are advertising Liverpool v Newcastle for €335 incl one night at Crown Plaza or Holiday Inn in Liverpool. These go for €150-200 a night so the balance is the cost of the ticket. Not for me as too expensive given I get tickets direct from my club but if you absolutely, positively have to be there it's another avenue to investigate.
