Pretty horrible at the minute and due to get worse 2m.
There is a real possibility that it might you know.
esp with Tolka next to the Tolka.
Ya that's what I was thinking, if the river overflows - it's a gonner :mad:
They have upgraded the flood defenses since the last time Tolka was flooded. See here
I think the forecast for friday is quite good but lets just hope the damage isn't already done by then.
I'll be absolutely gutted if this doesn't go ahead.
Keep hoping people.
True. But I live in the area and there hasn't been a flood since to test the changes...Around the Tolka is usually pretty bad when the city floods.Quote:

its not half as bad here as down in cork at the mo.. the forecast for today was 80mm of rain followed by the same tomorrow so id say we could be fooked for fri night :mad:
a bit of wind and rain never hurt anybody
whats the betting that oily byrne is out in tolka on the pitch right now pouring on more buckets of water in an attempt to get the game called off :eek:
wouldn't surprise me at all. might suit shels if it was called off. and we all know that they do what suits them. I wouldn't say ollie would pour buckets of water on the pitch, he's probably just stuck a pump in the river :eek: :rolleyes:
Its been pi$$ing down here for hours now , knowing how bad the drainage at Tolka is I'd say any more rain tomorrow and the game looks pretty dodgy.
Have $hel$ any plans for a pitch inspection early on Friday?
I'd say our game against Bohs is also in doubt as United Park is under several inches of o2 at the moment.
PMA, PMA!:)Quote:

Well at the moment about two miles from Tolka the ground is dry outside. Doesnt look half as threatening as it did yesterday.
if the game is called off, with the numbers we have going up, i propose the first military excursion by the PROC. we take the four courts, dublin castle and Croke Park, for a kick about for a laugh. :ball: :D
:D REBEL ARMY ON TOUR :D
We'll be on the news outside Leinster House!
I'd hope it is all the time. It'd be fairly hard to play there otherwise. :DQuote:
