Could the Drumcondra Fuhrer's declaration in Vienna yesterday that we are about to recognise Kosovo's sovereignity cast a doubt over Trap's first scheduled game in charge?

Doubt it. Sure every other country in the world has supported their independence. Except The Isle of Man.

spain hasn't either.
I feel sorry for the serbs, this was originally their heartland...

Actually regardless of The Isle of Man's stance on the issue does anyone know if it's an afternoon or evening kick-off as the FAI website says TBC. It's me Ma's 60th that night so might have to miss it if it's the 7:30pm kick-off. :(

Getting off topic, but you are very wrong..Russia Spain, Slovakia, Argentina and quite a few others have opposed it outright.
China, New Zealand, South Africa, India, Mexico and numerous others have expressed grave doubts.

From the above list, its obvious why Argentina, Russia and Spain have oppossed it. Not so sure why Slovakia would though.
To be honest being Irish, I didnt think mein fuhrer would acknowledge it so quickly...

IT would be like if Meath was filled with loads of people from Wales and then it was declared independent.

According to Sky Sports website its a 7.30 evening kick off. They would be the only channel showing the match I would think.

Im sure craven cottage will have some on general release, but given the ticket office didn't know anything about it, im pretty sure that could be a while yet:D
here are the two main irish bars in fulham though, brogans is quite good, its a bit like waxys for anyone thats been there....
http://www.brogansfulham.co.uk/ --> savage stew too, food nice and reasonably priced!
http://www.sportspubs.co.uk/new_detail.php?pubscode=45

The Heineken Cup Final is on the same day, which is an afternoon kick off. Nobody would want to compete for viewers with that, so a late evening kick off makes a lot of sense.

This is like the government saying, that if you migrate to a country, become
the majority in a part of a country then you can declare independence..
Sounds a bit like them agreeing with the creation of Northern Ireland..:rolleyes:

Ya exactly, thats what I said earlier condex. I really didnt think the Irish government would agree with this. Its like a load of travellers settling in donegal and declaring it their own independent state.

An evening kick-off because of a competing event on the telly? Surely not? I though the FAI only had 7:30pm kick-offs if the opposing conuntry's TV stations paid big money for it (Germany last October, they even used their own cameras) or for religious reasons (Israel in the last World Cup qualifiers). Neither apply to Serbia.
As for the whole Kosova business, there's a cynical Serbian saying; Serbs will do anything to kepp Kosovo in Serbia, apart from live there.

I think it's more likely that Sky Sports, who are broadcasting the Heineken Cup Final as well, have requested the evening kick off.
