The Irish soccer team and dozens of fans are stranded on the Faroe Islands this morning due to foggy conditions.

However, two charter flights from the islands are due back in Dublin Airport later today.

Yesterday a plane carrying just under 100 Irish fans was forced to return home after fog prevented it from landing, while other diverted planes were forced to land in Norway and Denmark.

Fans were consoled by Ireland's 2-0 victory in the Group 4 World Cup European qualifier match.
