Dundee United match

[cityman]

Looking forward to the match in the Bowl tomorrow. At the moment I'm not sure if many United fans are travelling over yet. Hope its a great game and a decent crowd.

AFAIK it will be our reserve team that will play. I think that's the reason the date of their game against Limerick was brought forward a day.

I think that United will have all their new signings there. Any idea why UCD have not publicised the match? I read that the friendly against Millwall is off for financial reasons!! Can't see UCD making a lot of money from tomorows match!

No idea. Our friendly last year against Stockport wasn't either.

Shame, just word of mouth again!! All it would take is a minute on the keyboard. Anyway I hope that some fans turn up. Some of my friends are goin to miss this one but wil be at Tolka Rovers on Wednesday.

Nope, it'll be a "mixture" tonight, which I imagine will be similar to Stockport last year with about 20 players used between first teamers and fringer players. Basically an elaborate training session for us.

Don't know why the Limerick game was changed (or if it was just that I was given wrong info), but we always try to get A League/U-21 games played on Saturday morning as it frees up the weekend for everyone.

Students take on the Terrors

Scottish Premier Division side Dundee United take on UCD at the Belfield Bowl this evening as Pete Mahon uses the friendly to run the rule over a number of fringe players.

The students are currently languishing near the bottom of the eircom Premier Division and need to get a run of form going before too long or otherwise face the possibility of First Division football next season.

Mahon is set to run the rule over winger Dean Marshall, midfielder Shane Duggan, defenders Enda Stevens and Gareth Matthews, who signed from Norwich City last week.

“They will all be involved at some stage of the game,” said Mahon. “It will be good to see them play in Ireland and for us it will be a nice break from the turmoil of the league.”

Including the Spanish fella? Their website said he was linking up in Scotland this week, so I assumed he wouldn't be around for this one.

Where's the training? Is that the AUL? Don't remember a concrete wall in the Bowl; hoping it's not there!

I think its St Francis's Pitch in Baldonnel.

How much is it into the game tonight?

How much is it into the game tonight?

Normal price I'd say (€15). Certainly won't be more anyway.

Any idea why UCD have not publicised the match?

I got a text from the club about the game today so at least anyone who normally goes to games will know about it.

I'm pretty sure it's the normal prices. That's how it worked for the Stockport game last year.

2-1 win for UCD. Decent enough game, with a few new players showing what they can do. A number of us were impressed by that number 6.
