UCD 3-1 Ireland Amateurs

Apparently.

Robbie Martin scored. Apparently!

any other info - annoy observer from here. Seems to have been at the match, though don't think he knows much more than the above! Still, seeing as I got the day wrong, it's better than me! :o :)

Ireland amateurs lost 3-2 to Rovers, so it's another encouraging result. Still keeping our three goals a game average going too!

Glad to hear. The match never appeared on Aertel for whatever reason. It's gonna be a massive step up against Shels though.

Especially with Tony Mac serving a suspension.... however newly assembled squads of players take a time to settle in a competitive environment ( and they have signed half a team) so a shock result however unlikely, is possible especially on the opening day of the season. Besides we play better against them in Tolka than we do at home in recent years! :p

Nut sure haven't we the might of Dundalk to come on Saturday as well?! :p

'Tis true about the friendly build-up...bit worried about it meself too. Think after Doolin brought the team off to Malta two years ago for no obvious benefit (losing the first eight games!) and at a decent cost, we must be scared off foreign trips for a while!

Still, the way I look at it is that we're expected to gain nothing from Shels, so even if we lose, we can treat that as our last pre-season game for the Drohgeda tie, when we should be up to speed. Drogs at home is a much more important match (in terms of points gainable) than Shels away.

How's the holidays going, CTID?!

Ah no, did you have to remind me? I had forgotten. Sure, it'll be all the sweeter when we turn them over.;)

Do they have any suspensions hanging over from last season?

Byrne, Crawley, Rowe (now gone to Pat's I think) and Crawford.

Still, they've plenty left over... :(

Jason or Stuart Byrne? Cos there's a world of difference;)

[pineapple stu]

Jason! :)

Though that just means Crowe gets his debut... :(

Although I wdoner if the voodoo curse I put on him is still working... :cool:

We'll just have to add another one, though I think you need a piece of their clothes and/or hair to pull it off (makes Doolo a tough target, him not usually wearing any clothes).

:eek: :confused:

The voodoo did work on Crowe - he missed two penalties that season, remember? It was very well documented in the fanzine!

[Poor Student]

Did anyone figure out who scored the other goals?

[pineapple stu]

Never heard anything else. Can't make today's game either - anyone else going? Maybe fill us in on the details?

I decided to watch the Ireland game. I'm probably not the only one. I'd say the scorers will be on Aertel this time though.

Well, that'll learn ya! ;)
