Away to Athlone on Saturday 25th February at 7:30. Could be an interesting one! :)
Tempting but I don't really want to stay overnight.
*pedantry* Shouldn't this be entitled 'Friendly' as there's only one? :D
I was hoping we'd be playing a more local First Division side like that team that hope to play in Tallaght, I think they're called Shamrock Rovers?;)
The prospect of a season without playing Rovers is more attractive I'd say. :D
Spoiling two of Schumi's posts at once, we're playing Rovers on Satruday 4th March (or whatever date the Saturday is) in Belfield at 2:30.
Supposed to be at home to Kilkenny City the week before the Rovers game. TBCQuote:

Sunday 19/02: UCD v Monaghan United, Belfield Park, 2.30pm
Saturday 25/02: Athlone Town v UCD, Golden Island Park, 7.30pm
Sunday 26/02: Kilkenny City v UCD, Buckley Park, 3pm
Saturday 04/03: UCD v Shamrock Rovers, Belfield Park, 2.30pm
From eleven a side.
So, less than 3 weeks until we're on the field again. Though does Belfield Park mean the stadium or some pitch with more tilt than a pinball machine?
The Monaghan game will be on the pitch by Foster's Avenue I'd imagine (the tilted pitch has been mostly built on you might remember). Rovers might bring a few with them so that might be in Belfield Park proper maybe.Quote:

Let the squad get used to the good life, with the use of some off-season facilities.
Your friendly against us: is it going to be on a proper pitch or that cabbage patch we played on last year? I ask this because not having a go but because I and one or two others don't want to travel and then find it is on a poor pitch.
That particular cabbage patch is now a building site.Quote:

Outside pitch I'd imagine. It'd be better quality than the one from last year.
