'I sincerely hope that the event will be an enjoyable and safe one for all attending'
Tánaiste Micheál Martin has issued advice to fans travelling to watch Ireland compete in the Rugby World Cup next month, urging them to do so "safely and wisely".
Although viewed by bookies as the third favourites to win it outright, world number one-ranked Ireland will kick off their bid to win their first ever World Cup against Romania on 9 September in Bordeaux before also battling Tonga, South Africa and Scotland in the Pool B decider.Irish fans lucky enough to secure tickets to the games to cheer on Andy Farrell's men in France have been urged to prepare in advance for their trip.
"Ensure that your passport is in date, purchase travel insurance, get a European Health Insurance Card, and bring a passport card for travel convenience." The number is +33 1 441 76780 and Martin urges all fans travelling to save it, along with the other key numbers, on their phones before travelling.
