Cork v Slavia Prague

[sligoman]

They lost to Anderlecht 2-0 at home on Wednesday. I presume this was a CL qualifier? :confused:

[Ruairi]

Is there information about Slavia Praha are in the league table at the moment or who they have beaten recently ?

for me it sounds like Slavia Prague are having a shaky start to their season.

Played 3, won 1, drew 1 and lost won. Scored 4 goals and conceded 4. Very mediocre at best. Maybe they can turn it around but they are there for the winning IMO.

A good draw for Cork IMO.

Im not saying you are useless but same happened to shels last season and you have to accept they are the better side and will probably progress.

Yes, but as long as they don't do a Fenlon on it and just presume that they're going to lose :mad: ( which I can't see happening anyway judging by Cork's performance last night :D ).

The way I would see it is that Slavia are RANKED better than them, the two matches will decide which is the better team. :)

for whoever mentioned it,
Rovers got slovan liberec in 2003. we lost 2-0 in both legs.mind you liberec had beaten milan the previous season.
prague is a kip-its been ruined by loadsa stag parties and weekends on cheap ****-ups
avoid taxi drivers-if you think here is bad youre in for a surprise in prague
avoid irish pubs- youl pay E3 a pint
if youre intent on cheap beer, drink just outside the city centre and drink in a non-touristy pub. youl get pints for about E1 then

Ddn't Pat's beat a Ceczh team in the intertobob a couple of years ago??

[Slash/ED]

Boll*x.
toughest draw, and least financial return......:(

I don't see how the latter point works out. City would have sold the cross out at this stage no matter who they drew. Even if you drew the most high profile team there there would be uproar if you moved it all the way to Dublin, so you'd be stuck playing in the cross anyway.

Tough draw, but not the toughest by any means, did you see the teams in there?

It's winnable.

No TV money though - that is where the big bucks is at.

[harry crumb]

Group stages is where all the money is.

Even so, did anybody see Eurosport and the guy commentating said that Cork City vs Everton would be a special occasion if they were pulled out together. :)

[thejollyrodger]

Cork might get some money from RTE but it wont be a whole pile. If they made it to the group stages and there was a big team Cork could pick up a few million bucks

Heard that alright.

Anyone remember the time City played Everton in a friendly at Musgrave Park. 90/91?? I was only 10 at the time and vaguely remember being there and seeing Kevin Sheedy in the flesh. The man who scored against England in the world cup :D

Nope - Rovers were beaten 2-0 home and away by Liberec after beating Odra. Pat's beat Rijeka of Croatia.
