    Skonto Riga

    Am I going senile in my old age or do I remember watching a friendly between you lot and Skonto Riga about five years ago?

    It was a goalfest, something like 4-3 or the like?
    Tifo poles, sausage rolls and a few goals.

    Yup, ended 3-3 back at the start of the 2003 season. I missed it. From vague memory, Seán Finn, Allie Mac and Bambi Gallen scored. They played Bohs a couple of days previous as well. Couple of their players ended up at Euro 2004.

      Stephen Kenny was manager of Bohs when they played Skonto.
      In todays Irish Star' "When I was Manager of Bohs we played them in a friendly and they were a decent side" ' [to his credit he avoided 'Crack East European Outfit']

      ' "We will do alot of homework on them in the coming weeks" added Kenny who does not believe that the recent resurgence of Irish clubs in Europe can be taken as a massive plus ahead of this summers games.
      "While the players have been boosted in terms of confidence by the various clubs' achievements it does not count for anything in the games." '
      " I'll go right up to here,
      it can't possibly hurt.
      All they will find is my
      beer and my shirt."
