Small bit of housekeeping but it will be important to know. The Irish League is the one in the North that plays winter football, the league of Ireland is the one down south that plays summer ball.
Us LOI snobs get very annoyed about being called the Irish League
He has been fantastic for them since joining tbh. He has played every minute and that tells you everything you need to know. Made his debut against us (Cork City) in Turners Cross, they were 2 down after an hour in a game we had to win and came back to win it 3-2.
Sligo got him for 18 months...
It's not solely the FAIs fault though and I would burn Abbottstown to the ground in the morning.
There is a lack of foresight around stadia in this country IMHO. Tolka Park should never have been "saved" and now they have been given a 100 year lease on it.
What other country in Europe would...
Tolka isn't an option so they will play in Tallaght. They are looking at trying to play the Palace game in the Aviva but your supposed to play all games in the same venue so it would need UEFA dispensation. The cost of doing it makes it very unlikely
Absolutely none I'm afraid. Not showing up in Waterford and the capitulation at home to the real Rovers last week, ensured that.
Galway are absolutely awful, no chance they finish above Sligo and could on a bad night lose the play off game
May 9th 1992, Jury's Hotel Ballsbridge Dublin. I'm 14 and a ball boy at the FAI Cup Final the following day (Cork City vs Bohs). My father and his buddies are in the bar watching the eurovison which Linda Martin won (why me?) so I head back to the room. Turn the corner and Neville Southall is...
Why does it feel like the FAI have made a huge error here? UEFA clearly wrote to the associations informing them of the March deadline but did the FAI pass that onto the clubs?
