      Game moved because the Leinster Football Final was clashing - Dublin v Offaly.

        Is the bloody Leinster final on Saturday this year?
        Is it not moved because Drogs have a European tie on the Thursday or something?

            It is. That's why the game's getting moved.

              I don't understand. By the time autumn comes won't Leinster's season have started up again and won't we be clashing with the very market we're trying to capitalise on? I don't think the Saturday switch is that great an idea and we don't seem to be having much luck getting to even experiment with it.

                Is it time we had another promotion? Anyone in a Dubs jersey who brings their kid gets in free. The kid has to be paid for of course

                  Wha, I thought it was on the Saturday! What the fook it this. I'll be in a gutter outside Coppers at that time after the Dubs win the Leinster again. This is ridiculous.

                      What is? The Leinster final isn't.

                        Hmmm...according to the GAA website, it's on Saturday and Sunday...

                        Has it here for the Sunday though.

                          Right. Was on to the club and got everything sorted. The GAA website was confusing me.

                          Drogs play HJK Helsinki in the UEFA on the Thursday apparently. There's a 48-hour rule which allows them to request a postponement of any game within 48 hours of that European game - including ours. Rather than rearrange for midweek, we agreed to play on the Sunday. But it couldn't be in the afternoon due to the Leinster Final, so it's on at 7:00 on the Sunday.

                          All clear now?

                            Yes because it was rather confusing prior to that.

                              classic statement from a ucd fan i think you will find our attendances are pretty much the same for the last 4 seasons .I thought the whole point was to try an get more people to come to watch eircom leauge, your club is trying everything to get people to matches , with comments like bandwaggoners no wonder people dont wanna go
