We have just been drawn against Cherry Orchard.
They're struggling this year in The Leinster Senior League but I'd expect them to be well up for this.
up for it, town will win even with tc probably trying out a few things with diff players.. nice if a good town following went up.. could be a boost for few of the players fighiting for 1st team...Quote:

Where do they play?
They play there home games in Ballyfermot but I'd imagine they'll move it somewhere else to get a few quid out of it.
They play in Elmdale Crescent in Ballyfermot, basically a pitch with a rail around it, dressing rooms currently under construction, the link below only gives a small glimpse

There is two full size pitches one with a railing around it and also a ssg pitch too, its located in a housing estate at the back of Parkwest. No chance it would cater for a League of Ireland game.
They could move it to Richmond perhaps?
Crumlin might concede home advantage to play Pats there (Richmond) that weekend and Tallaght Stadium (on which ever day Rovers don't need it when playing Limerick) a possibility as Sacred Heart (Tallaght club) played Limerick there at this stage last seasonQuote:

Cherry Orchard is of course Vinny Perth's old club before he came to us. this is the first time that the clubs have met since we joined the league of ireland. I am not sure if we met in the non league days as I havent done the stats yet for that era!
Fucck sake Marty... get the finger out.Quote:

Why not Sunday?Quote:

I always wondered what happened to John Martin. My favourite Town player, followed by Glynn!
