We were apparently all lined-up for a mini-tour of Scotland in the New Year.

Robbo's sacking will doubtless ahve put paid to that.

I'm pretty sure Limerick are currently the only team from the Republic of Ireland to have played at Donegal Celtic's ground. We lost a pre-season friendly there 2-1 in 1990.

Gary - I was up there prior to the 2007 season, to see DC play Bohs.

Never heard of that game thanks.

Any idea what year Bohs played there?

Sorry Gary my previous post was a bit vague - it was pre-season 2007, so earlier this year. February/March maybe?
