This Rosenberg outfit look dreadful - a shadow of the club that has consistently caused top European teams trouble for decades. The Norwegians occasionally look technically superior but really Linfield will probably be disappointed if they don't get a goal.
any place to watch on the internet?
can we post peer to peer info or will that unleash the hounds of hell?
They don't tend to perform well in Europe over the past few years (saying that - they've been through a bit of managerial turmoil over the past couple of seasons)
Just to put into context:
Last season's League campaign:
1 Rosenborg (C) P 30 W 20 D 9 L 1 F 60 A 22 GD +38 PTS 69
This season so far:
1 Rosenborg P 16 W 10 D 6 L 0 F 29 A 8 GD +21 PTS 36
The only game they lost in 2009 was 3-2 to IK Start in Round 27. This was after the title had been secured - and came about thanks to Start scoring goals in the 89th and 90th minutes (the winner coming from the penalty spot as a result of idiocy by a Rosenborg defender)
From having watched a lot of them over the past two years (mainly due to me living in Norway where EVERY League game is shown live on either free-to-air or satellite TV) - I'd say they not to be taken lightly - the tie will be won and lost in the Lerkendal next week...
Good result for Linfield tonight, final score against Rosenborg 0-0.
Could it be that a weak league ill-prepares them for European football? I mean, man for man they have a better set of players and should have controlled the game tonight. Even allowing for the fact pre-season unfamiliarity tends to narrow the gap between weak and strong teams, they never really looked like they believed they could score, let alone win the game.
Few pics of Dundalk Training today:

Great to see Peter Cherrie back training!
Norwegian press reports as follows:
Quote:
Linfield - Rosenborg 0-0
(Dagbladet): It is three weeks since the Northern Irish team Linfield started their run up to a new season, and two and a half months since they played their last competitive game.
Nevertheless, they were in no way inferior to the current leaders of the Norwegian League at an almost deserted Windsor Park tonight, where Rosenborg should show that last year's qualifier defeat against Qarabagh was only a temporary glitch.
Rosenborg were the better side, but with a little luck could have gone home with a loss. With 0-0 in the first game - the task of winning should be manageable in the return meeting at Lerkendal next week.
They had more than enough to break down a hard-working Linfield team. Before the break Rosenborg created a few small chances, and they were criticised by Viasat expert Knut Torbjørn Eggen after the first 45 minutes.
- "Rosenborg must sharpen up", growled Eggen, and called the half "high pressure and hopelessly unsuccessful".
If Rosenborg progress next week as expected at the Lerkendal - there remains much work to do before they are ready for group play in the Champions League. If so, expect both a third and fourth qualifying round later this summer.
"With a little luck" seems to have the complete opposite meaning in Norway.
edit: I guess it probably doesn't have the automatic positive connotation it has in English
What time(Irish time) is the Dundalk game tomorrow? Will Cherrie be back no?
1845 irish time & no:o
I'll be able to show this as long as the weather isn't as bad as it was here this evening. It knocked my satellite signal out :(.
I'll post the channel link tomorrow evening when I make one.
Great result for Linfield. Three for three unbeaten at home for Irish League, it's a route upwards.
For fans of the Country ranking, at the beginning of the season 9 match points this season would give IRL a co-efficient fo 10.000 in season 2012/13.
Match points are 2pts for win, 1 point for a draw, 0 for loss. Half that for qualifiers and Play-Off rounds.
Play-off rounds don't recieve the full points.
Or enjoying the cup atmosphere and the race for the Play-Off Round.
[QUOTE='at an almost deserted Windsor Park':[/QUOTE]
Very strange. No one in Norn Ireland seems to take European competition very seriously.
Probobly not unrelated to results for Northern Ireland teams over the years, cant imagine too many fans getting excited about going to watch their team getting trashed (as was expected V Rosenborg). Also off season up North and fans are on holiday, marching, marching,. marching ;)
Very good result for the Blues but expect Rosenborg to progress.
Brilliant effort by Linfield. Rosenborg are a team that quite regularly play in the group stages of the Champions' League so a draw is a fantastic result. That said, you'd expect the Norwegians to win the away leg.
TNS will be relatively happy with the 1-0 defeat I'd have thought, gives them a decent chance at home. In recent years, they seem to do well in the first leg and then blow it in the return (last year they lost 2-1 in Iceland, the year before that 1-0 in Lithuania, and the year before won 3-2 at home to Ventspils, and the year before that lost 1-0 in Finland to MyPa.) They lost all ties, so hopefully they can finally get it right this time.
TNS started very well (and Bohs very poorly) on Tuesday night. Still an open tie but if TNS come out to chase the goal I expect Bohs to nick an away goal and finish it. But for some poor misses on tuesday night by Bohs the tie would already be over, have to hope we dont regret them.
Very true.
I'm sure some of it is down to the fact that there's been so little to cheer about recently in Europe, but it is weird that up to 10,000 will turn out for a local derby, yet only 20% of that figure can be bothered with a big game against a team who are regularly in the Champions League.
Also - NI has a deeply inward-looking/parochial streak which may help explain it to some degree as well. It's always better putting one over the neighbours than watching these glamour forrin sides.
keep an eye here: http://www.livefootballtvs.com/ they have the Dundalk game listed so fingers crossed they show it later on.
Dundalk game is on Bulgarian TV+
See http://liveonsat.com/footy_today.php for schedule

Dont think the rovers game is on any Euro channel
I went up to the game last night. They only opened the south stand but that seemed fairly full but hard to call the attendance when sitting in the stand. Seemed on a par with Bohs v TNS so maybe 2,500.
Agree it is very disappointing for the champions league. Great result and great performance by Linfield who were well worth the draw.
I'm good to go.
Here
Same stream but fullscreen
Thanks boo_boy,i love you!!!
come on the town!!
oh were you uploading the vids last year on justintv as sligofella or is that someone else?
That was me. I was going to stream on justin again but they must have banned me :o.
I'm taking the stream down now but I'll start it up again at around 6pm. It's just wasting my bandwidth having it up for the next 6 hours before the match is on.
ya or if you were anywhere near the village around this time!!!
so can anyone make this clear by posting a link for where each game is/might be shown?
Dundalk game is here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/booboy1 (Thanks to Boo_Boy)

Cant find anything for thr Fingal game.
Rovers game might be on SRFCTV: http://www.srfc.tv/blog/
I was in the home end and speaking freely with my Limerick accent. No problems at all including discussing the Bohs game the
night before. Nobody mentioned my accent anyway but it is pretty obvious I'm from the Republic.
I think there are a lot of misconceptions about Windsopr Park from people who have never been. You should have no worries
about going to a game there with a southern accent. I've brought my 2 young daughters to a game there and indeed
to games in other Irish League grounds.
Mindful of what EG said on another topic I actually went in via Tates Avenue and avoided the Village but after the game didn't bother making
the detour as I wanted to get home. There was plenty of bunting up which some might find intimidating but I just kept walking and had no problem.
I try to avoid Cliftonville and Donegal Celtic away games but otherwise would have no concerns.
I parked where I always park on Windsor Avenue which is on the other side of the Lisburn Road from the stadium and a nice area.
Peter Cherrie mightt start for us tonight apparently.
Gerry and Larry at the Dundalk game?
It's not on TV.
edit:
Extratime have someone out in Portugal covering the game though, so there will be plenty of updates on their site I would think.
