Many Drogs traveling?
Brilliant! I'll watch that tonight. Why aren't RTE or TV3 shown it? Anyway, best of luck to Drogheda & Pat's tonight.
iirc - they have to pay to show the away legs - buying the coverage from the host broadcaster type of thing.
Plus would RTÉ send out a crew to San Marino to cover an eL side in Europe - methinks not!
According to either the Star/Sun this morning 300 of them are travelingQuote:

Safe to assume that Pats/Odense isn't on tele?
Had a look at the Danish Sports Channel that would cover the Odense game - they're showing the Scousers against some Veterans team in a "friendly" instead
Programme starts on RTV at just before 8pm Irish time
It is safe to assume that
The biggest question about this match is how many drogs are going to hammer this team?
It could be blocked in Ireland? :confused: Like Rte block other nations watching on the net. Could be hard trying to find a proxy address in san MarinoQuote:

Watched Andorra - Israel on the Andorran National Broadcaster's website the other week with no problems.
In my experience RTÉ are the only station which does block content on the web
SS Murata - sounds like one of those expensive cruise ships :DQuote:

Thanks for the link. AFAIK there are about 300 Drogs based in Rimini and travelling into San Marino just before ko and returning to the Bounty Bar immediately afterwards. The owner has fixed the price of drink and opened at 11am this morning for the Drog fans , layed on busses to the game and looking after them very well. He must be on his way to a 2nd Ferrari by this stage after the killing he made for the Ireland game.
Best of luck to Pats tonight as well , keep the flag flying.
Thats a good crowd if true...Fair play :ball:Quote:

They took a lot to Kristiansand as well for the away leg of the IK Start game last season
I travelled both to Helsinki and Kristiansand last season , and this trip has worked out at a snip of the cost of the games in Scandanavia , most of the fans booked with ryanair to Bologna , either direct or via Frankfurt , some got it for around €100 while those booking later paid about €200. 3-Star hotels in Rimini for €50 per room per night. All in all a rather inexpensive trip.
It is a foregone conclusion and could you take your conspiricey theories and shove them somewhere uncomfortable.Quote:

Certainly wasn't a cruise for Tampere at half time when they were 1-0 down.Quote:

My prediction 1-0 to Libertaes
LADS! I just checked the UEFA website to look at the squads of various teams and there is no mention of Vilmunen? Does anyone know if he was definitely registered to play ( he's surely been there long enough )?
http://www.uefa.com/footballeurope/c...=14/index.html
I don't know where they're getting their information from. Just look at Pat's squad!
http://www.uefa.com/footballeurope/c...=14/index.html
Unless of course Pat's didn't register their players properly? :rolleyes: :D
Info there is out of date ,looks like last seasons squads.
Yeah reitoeir is way off about RTÉ here. The BBC and all major broadcasters' sites do it. When it's sports broadcasts rights come into it too. Hence a lot of the blocked stuff. It's called geoblocking BTW.Quote:

KOH
I don't use the BBC site for that kind of thing (seeing as I live there and have a DAB Radio) - the only time I've watched stuff on there was some Scottish club matches in Europe and they weren't blocked.Quote:

And the emails I received from the Sports Department of TV3 Viasat in Norway concerning the Rosenborg match must have been fakes then! :D
Murata had a World cup winner in their team, and two players with a combined 500 Serie A appearances and numerous European appearances. I would imagine they'd be a slightly different proposition to Libertas.Quote:
