Now at 7:00 on Sunday the 16th.
Not sure why...
So much for Saturday evening football.
Game moved because the Leinster Football Final was clashing - Dublin v Offaly.
Is the bloody Leinster final on Saturday this year?
Is it not moved because Drogs have a European tie on the Thursday or something?
Well maybe all the bandwaggoners who follow Drogheda now , who were not seen sign nor light of before 2004 will come out in their droves and stuff Belfield Park?... oh well might as well dream here as anywhere else .... :D
It is. That's why the game's getting moved.Quote:

Is it time we had another promotion? Anyone in a Dubs jersey who brings their kid gets in free. The kid has to be paid for of course :D
Wha, I thought it was on the Saturday! What the fook it this. I'll be in a gutter outside Coppers at that time after the Dubs win the Leinster again. This is ridiculous.:mad:Quote:

Has it here for the Sunday though.
Right. Was on to the club and got everything sorted. The GAA website was confusing me.
Drogs play HJK Helsinki in the UEFA on the Thursday apparently. There's a 48-hour rule which allows them to request a postponement of any game within 48 hours of that European game - including ours. Rather than rearrange for midweek, we agreed to play on the Sunday. But it couldn't be in the afternoon due to the Leinster Final, so it's on at 7:00 on the Sunday.
All clear now? :)
Yes because it was rather confusing prior to that.
classic statement from a ucd fan :D i think you will find our attendances are pretty much the same for the last 4 seasons .I thought the whole point was to try an get more people to come to watch eircom leauge, your club is trying everything to get people to matches , with comments like bandwaggoners no wonder people dont wanna go :confused:Quote:

It's the syndrome that see someone like you who goes to support your team, occasionally having difficulty getting an Ireland ticket, where as a bunch of tubes who never darken the doorstep of Belfield Park or United Park go to two home Ireland games a year and think that they are great football fans, seem to have no trouble getting them.
You have to ask yourself where are the 11,000 extra fans United suddenly gained when they played in the Cup Final ,all year round? And then you will see my point.
The rest of the nonsense from this thread is here. I don't want any more posting about that unless CollegeTillIDie wants to apologise to Colie.
Well as the relevant bits are locked how can anyone contribute to it in anyway?:rolleyes:Quote:
