I think there should be an equivalent of Godwin's Law for the first person to accuse someone else of being bitter on the internet.
Probably should be a law for the first person to bring up a made up internet law in discussion too
Can I ask the pair of you to leave it now? Its unbelievably tedious at this stage

Is the capacity going to be 9,000 for those aswell, or, is that just for the Real Madrid match

There might be one temp stand for those games, so capacity will be around 6,000, it's not confirmed though. Definitely not going to be 9,000 capacity anyway from what I can gather.

It's probably already been said on here, but Roy Keane will take his new Ipswitch Town team to Ireland to play two friendlies, one against Cork City, at Turner's Cross, and Keane will also visit The Crystal City to take on Waterford United, both games are in mid July.

Kop this –Pool to take on West Cork’s best
By Sean O’Riordan
Wednesday, June 24, 2009
IT pays to think big – just ask members of a small, rural soccer club who have landed a match against Liverpool.
Dunmanway Town XI player David Hall simply called Anfield six weeks ago and asked would the men in red like to travel to west Cork for a game.
"I had my reservations when he did it. We have no association with the club and I honestly thought they’d ignore us," club manager John Buckley said.
"Now we’re just over the moon."
Liverpool won’t be sending Steven Gerrard or Fernando Torres but have promised to field a squad which could include Dutch internationals Dirk Kuyt and Ryan Babel as well as French under-21 David Ngog and Daniel Agger.
The David v Goliath clash will take place at 2pm on August 6, but not on the Dunmanway club’s pitch. "We simply wouldn’t have the space. We’re hoping to attract up to 3,000 fans, so we will be staging the match at Maria Immaculata Community College, in Dunmanway," Mr Buckley said.
Liverpool club secretary, Ian Silvester, confirmed yesterday they had accepted the invitation and will fly into Cork the night before the game.
"In its decision to hold this game Liverpool FC, who are aware of their enormous fan base in the region, are bringing a taste of the Premier League to all their fans in west Cork," Mr Buckley said.
The club were runners up in the West Cork Premier League last season. But they won’t be able to match Liverpool’s firepower.
"We are hoping to draft in a couple of League of Ireland players so we can make a game of it. Liverpool are aware of our intention and have no problem with it," Mr Buckley said.
Tickets will cost €20 for adults and €10 for children and senior citizens.
The club, which has around 300 members, will use the money raised to further develop its pitches and purchase new equipment.
It’s unlikely that any fans will travel over from the Kop but then Liverpool needn’t worry as there are thousands of their supporters in Cork who will no doubt be clamouring for tickets.

to get a ticket for the match you have to buy a €30 ticket that will get you into not only the millwall match but also the home matches against Cork and dundalk also.

Good marketing ploy but would probably work better if it where against a bigger team!

Shamrock Rovers have won more trophies than Bohs.
Newcastle United have won more trophies than Sunderland.
Seems like you're wrong on both accounts. :p

Your right on the both account. The Skunks have won many trophies but we've (SAFC) won more leagues
Sunderland
League
6 times winners
5-times runners-up
Our last title was in 1936 (the last time a team in strips won the English League)
F.A Cup
2 times winners
2 times runner-up
Newcastle
League
4 times winners
2 times runners-up
Your last league title in 1927
F.A Cup
6 times winners
7 times runners-up
Inter-cities Cup
1 time winners
Newcastle's last success was in 1969 in the Inter-cities (which some people don't count as a major trophy)
Sunderland's last was in 1973. Making us the last North East team in England to win a major trophy. (Middlesbrough don't count:D)
As everyone can now see we're both big clubs!
I don't blame you for not knowing your history because like most Toon fans you didn't realise Newcastle had a football team until 1992.
Any enough of this nonsense this is a Irish football forum and we should keep it that way.
End of.

Suppose to be one alright. Hope it doesn't go ahead though.
30th anniversary (and first since) match of the infamous 1979 euro tie*
If it goes ahead..............
* i wasn`t allowed attend, wise choice as the 2nd leg was played in Holland !!

What link up are you referring to?
Subsequent to that infamous 1979 tie concerted efforts were made by both clubs to form a close link - and the Dunfield youth football project emerged.
Waterford fans may also remember a certain Jeff McNamara who signed from Linfield for two games for a promotion play-off (scoring twice in the first tie)
I don't think a friendly in Oriel would be a good idea - it would attract plenty of scumbags intent on trouble and I can't see any benefits that offset this risk
