Much chance of any games being called off tomorrow? Has the weather in Dublin area improved?
Can use this thread for latest scores tomorrow night too I suppose.
Friday:
Drogheda Vs. Sligo Rovers
St. Pat's Vs. Fingal
Galway Vs. Dundalk
Shams Vs. UCD
Mons Vs. Athlone
Shels Vs. Harps
Limerick Vs. Foras
Saturday:
Bohs Vs. Linfield
Mervue Vs. Waterford
Longford Vs. Derry
Sunday:
Wexford Vs. Salthill
Weather has been fine today. All systems are go.
I might attend Bohs-Linfield on Saturday, can anyone tell me, am I likely to be kept back for ages as happened outside Richmond Park last month?
Heading down to that game myself, Id say it depends what stand the Linfield fans are in, we couldnt walk down Emmet Road because the Linfield fans were coming out that wayQuote:

The only bad thing i would say about the stadium is its far to exposed to the elements and the pitch can't take much of a spill of rain as we found out a couple of days ago when our game with shels was called off.

Game of the weekend has to be on Friday in Galway - Foster going home, Connor facing his former side. I'm off to check Paddy Powers to see about odds on red card totals! Has to be at least 2!!!
No odds on that, unfortunately. Offering a red card market on a Sean Connor team would be professional suicide for a bookie! :)Quote:

Things are fine here. Tis cold and a bit damp but should be a playable pitch so who cares!
Raining pretty solid here in Dublin now. Another few hours of this and most games will be off. :(Quote:

Was lashing down here in Tallaght till about 10am, been bright and sunny since and ground has completely dried up, things are looking good for tonight also looking forward to us giving UCD a good game.
Its sunny in tallaght now :D
Started to pour again here just after I predicted it was starting to dry up. Oh dear. Should still be ok though as pitch doesnt seem to be holding any water.
It will be touch and go Frosty. Our game will be going ahead, but its already in a bad state. It was teaming rain this morning down here, but its dried up since.Quote:

If it was steam rolled, I would very much doubt there would be a game on there for a few weeks after.Quote:
