Djurgardens v Cork City

[Slash/ED]

xscores now syaing Linfield only one down, guess that was a mistake on their part.

[Schumi]

Not quite so well now

2-0 down according to xscores.
Changed back to 1-0 now. :rolleyes:

[De Town]

xscores.com

cheers :cool:

[BohsFans]

in fairness, Halmstad are a class well above Linfield

[Poor Student]

I can't quite understand how RTE cannot put Cork on TV. Croatian TV is now showing Litex v Rijeka (played Pats a few years back if you remember) right after showing their other side. Both of these teams are not even of the big two (Dinamo and Hajduk) and they are a country of similar size to us with quite a poor league. It seems in fact they possibly got the clubs to schedule their games so they could show both. Later on another country of similar stature Slovenia will show Publikum (again not one of their bigger clubs) in the UEFA Cup too. Yet we cannot be bothered to show our one remaining club in Europe. :rolleyes:

Vaduz are already losing 1-0 to Besiktas.
Yeah Longford they were good, we believe ya ;)

[patsh]

0 - 1 still, I think it's half time

[shedite]

they are a country of similar size to us with quite a poor league. :

Croatian league is bigger audience I reckon. I was at a league game in Split a few years ago and the stadium ther is pretty huge. They got about 25,000 for that game

yeah, besiktas have just signed a world cup winner ;)

Fair play to CCFC, great to score early. If they get another its going to be a mountain for Djurgardens to climb.

1-0 half time

Were they playing Dinamo at the time? Dinamo and Hajduk are a fair bit bigger than the rest of the clubs. The team playing Red Star looked like a country village and the attendence wasn't massive. Cork are our biggest team and our only remaining European team and we cannot bother to show them. I'm just pointing out that these countries are not baulking when it comes to filling their responsibilities as national broadcasters no matter what the club or tie.

Half time in Cork game now :)

[Troy.McClure]

1-0 half time
Aaaaaggggghhhhhh! :o Can relax now for 15 min before the $hite hits the fan again :o

[De Town]

[kingcolers]

You recovered from the battering I gave you on Friday a few weeks back. :D

[sligoman]

Croatia and Sovenia have a league better then the Irish League and crowds are far bigger than the Irish League crowds.

I take your point that they should show the games but until we are able to hold our own in europe on a regular basis then joe public wont be interested. UEFA Cup doesnt get a mention in most places sadly. You only have to look at shels V Depor last year and then Shels V Lille a couple of weeks later. The difference was huge.

Im sure they will show the next Round when Cork get there :) and the group stages of course!!

Who are Vaduz??? :mad:

[De Town]

just getting over it :( :p

Eh no Slovenia doesn't. The crowds there are pathetic. The league is quite crap too. Their champions were knocked out by the Albanian champions. Or do you happen to be an expert on Slovenian football Higgins?

RTE might have showed the game if it was on Swedish TV - that way they could have just taken the Swedish feed, they were never going to bring their own cameras and crew out there though.

They didn't show us v Split away last year despite being on Croatian TV.

True, but are they going to show the game from the Cross? DO they have to pay anything to UEFA to show games btw?

[De Town]

2nd half kicked off

I don't see them offering radio coverage on any frequency. Something tells me they'd never have bothered anyway.

[A face]

2nd half is after starting !!

[ccfcgirl]

0-1 at half time .Second half just kicked off .it will be the longest 2nd half of my life. :p

[Slash/ED]

Like I said, they didn't in Croatia last year, no chance they would have bothered this time.

[ccfcgirl]

Come on City goal number 2 :D

[A face]

Ibraham Ba is on for them now !!

[higgins]

No Im no expert!
Not even on Eircom League :p

Anyway Croatia and Slovenia are two leagues where shels have been in the past couple of years. We got beaten by Olimpija Ljubljana very well. In fact it should have been more in the home leg as they looked great on the night. Of course we have come on in the last two seasons??

and the crowd that beat Gorica or whatever their name is went on to do not too badly against CSKA Sofia who I thought looked very good last night against Liverpool. Lots of IF's and BUT's there eh?? Anyway their league appear stronger on paper.

Crowds in solvenia I dont have a clue about but there was a big crowd in split when I was there last year :)

[patsh]

4 mins, 2nd half gone 0 - 1 still, Ba is on for the Swedes

[A face]

Your words ... not mine !! :eek: :p :D

[Slash/ED]

ah yeah but we're a big draw, just look at how much we get talked about by everyone else :)

[Fair_play_boy]

Seems like the first half was packed with incidents. Kearney missed from 6 yards and Benno and Divine both missed a cross that went to a Djurgarden forward but he shot inches wide. According to RTE City were under the cosh for much of the half.

C'mon Lads.

[Schumi]

Are all the Cork fans at the game too cheap to text people with news on how the game is going? :p

[Poor Student]

We got beaten by Olimpija Ljubljana very well.

And how you did I'll never know. They had lost their best players over that summer including Robert Prosenecki. They were a club collapsing and indeed they no longer exist. Their manager said you were the worst team he has ever faced.

Crowds in the SNL are of eL Division 1 standard. Slovenian and Croatian football are in decline. Unless Rijeka can beat Litex here (currently drawing 0-0) all Croat teams will have exited Europe first time of trying.

[sligoman]

Djurgardens 0-1 Cork City. Come on Cork, hang on

[Poor Student]

4 mins, 2nd half gone 0 - 1 still, Ba is on for the Swedes

Djurgardens 0-1 Cork City. Come on Cork, hang on
54 minutes now ;) :D

[Slash/ED]

Ibrihaim? :confused:

The very one. Didn't know he was with that crowd.

[De Town]

Ibrihaim? :confused:
thats the one, former milan and bolton

I am ..... i think they are a bit occupied at the moment (they sound like it on Swedish radio)

[Poor Student]

thats the one, former milan and bolton

If I remember he was a pace merchant, nothing more, nothing less. Seemed to be a lot of hype around him around 1998 I think.

[sligoman]

54 minutes now ;) :DActually it's 55 :p

[De Town]

Actually it's 55 :p
56 ;)

[patsh]

They have brought on Ba, apparently this is a surprise as he was considered unfit fit the game.
They will probably spring Jonson from the bench soon.
