Shamrock Rovers have confirmed that they will play Premier League side, Aston Villa in a friendly game at Tallaght Stadium in August.
The Hoops will play host to the Lions in the game which will take place at 3pm on Sunday, August 4 at the Tallaght venue.
Villa, who have secured their Premier League status for the 2013-14 season, will conduct their pre-season training camp in Germany before playing a number of friendlies in preparation for the new campaign, including this one against Shamrock Rovers.
A number of fans are expected to travel from Birmingham for the game, and it should be a great day out for Shamrock Rovers and Aston Villa fans alike.
Ticket details are being finalised and will be announced in due courseComment

The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."Comment

I think a lot of English teams have a few nicknames though? I suppose how Sligo are Rovers and the Bit o' Red. I suppose at a push you could be called the Bulls too.Comment
