Very few of their players are actually from Liechtenstein.

Falkirk are not that great, saved themselves on the last day of last season with a smash and grab! Vaduz play in the Swiss league dont they? Didnt they beat Longford a few years back?

Congrats to Derry and Pats btw!

A very good day for the League of Ireland, Derry doing the business and St Pats pulling off a miracle.

Beating a Maltese side by a single goal is hardly a miracle :eek:

Due to some irregularities our record is best left where it is

Well done to Pats & Derry.

Delighted for Kenna, Rogers & Lester who seem to have reaped undeserved (IMO) flak in certain quarters but who have achieved a rarity in League of Ireland football in getting a win away from home in European competition and who served my club very well when they were here. Well done lads.

Honourable mentions to Bohs & Shamrock Rovers this week too - a good week for our little league despite the queue of begrudgers

I was at the Brandywell tonight (my first visit) and I just want to compliment the Derry fans for creating a fantastic atmosphere.

Derry were much the better team and deserved their win, despite the best efforts of the referee.

Also I thought it was a nice touch to have tickets handed back to us on the way out, I haven't seen that done before.

Hurrah for the Junkies and Jesters, now people will start to take notice of the LoI

Hopefully not as much notice when ye bring yer gang of drunken midgets down to Flancare in two weeks time.

Of course they won't. It's a chicken/egg problem which has been more eloquently put by many posters. The strength of the League is reflected through European performances, NOT vice versa.

But who cares, I've a flight to Sofia to book.

...another witticism from the most tiresome poster on foot.ie....:rolleyes:

Seriously, we all know how you feel about LOI clubs in Europe, now can you please stop making post after post on the same theme; you're like an attention-seeking schoolboy who's just learned to curse for the first time.

Delighted he two teams made it through, compensates a bit for the disappointment of Bohs defeat. Horrible trip for Pat's in the next round, hopefully they can find a way to win through and make it worth their while.

You say that now but you'll all have a big cry at the guards when those "drunken midgets" sing some songs you don't like :rolleyes:

Yeah answered your question anyway. Going to call the gaurds on me now are you?
23/07/2009, 10:41 PM

I have no idea what you are raving on about? Should we call the guards? Are you admitting to the killing of Michael Jackson? Should we pay off the money owed for the sarnies out in Tolka? I am lost?
23/07/2009, 10:42 PM
Hairy Bowsie

Yeah sure.

To killing Jacko? Dont let Jermaine hear that.

Back to slightly more on topic moments , Pats have a massive challenge against their Russian opponents. They have a few very useful players among them Mister Jan Koller who can cause a problem or two unless nailed to the ground. They also have a familiar name in Jarosik who played with Chelsea a few years back I think?
