Decent games alright. We could be missing a few for the Turkey game as the Championship Playoff final is the day before (as is the Champions League final but no need to worry about that!).
and the Heineken Cup final, although that's not going to have much impact on the squad either!
I'll be in Prague for a stag made up predominantly of Derby County supporters, could be mayhem if they make the final. Worse still if they're playing Nottingham Forest.
Great day of sport alright and the times are perfect, no clashes. Although I remember getting excited about the Heineken Super Saturday a couple of years back and it turned out to be two French teams in the Rugby and a pretty dull Champions League final between Inter and Bayern. The Championship playoff was decent though... Blackpool v Cardiff I think.
was in Liverpool for that day, for a stag as well actually, and you're right the play off final was the best of the three games.Quote:

Outside of that any indication of the date of the US game(s)?
Is there any mention of the KO time on 25th May? I may take my little fella over for his home debut and if an afternoon game it might make sense to fly home that night.
I heard 5pm...
The FAI Junior Cup Final is scheduled for Sunday, May 25, in the Aviva Stadium prior to the Republic of Ireland-Turkey Senior international. So 5pm would make sense.
Thanks. Someone else said 4pm. I'll keep an eye out.
Given the Turkey game is on May 25 and Italy on May 31, we're probably looking at June 3-4 at the earliest. Which is a bit strange because World Cup teams would be heading down to Brazil by then anyway. I know the US is playing either Sweden/Serbia on May 27 in CA, Nigeria on June 7 in FL with a game at Red Bull Arena in NJ sandwiched between those 2, so maybe the US?Quote:

Blame Garth Brooks for only one home friendly; John Delaney is looking forward to his free vacation in America.
Hope it isn't as boring as last summer. Which players do you chaps think will pull out with mysterious groin injuries, no pun intended?
Hard not to get excited at the prospect of being a host city for Euro 2020, and indeed staging the Rugby WC. I take it Monte Carlo is out of the running for the Italian game so.Quote:
