I wasn't aware of the fact at the time. Nonetheless, my statement is still valid, it should have been, ceteris paribus.

If you aren't aware of all the facts of a situation, you shouldn't go spouting your ignorant ravings everywhere.

That fact mitigates absolutely nothing as far as Shamrock Rovers or SDCC are concerned, if anything it exacerbates it...

Would that not make you question the fact whether you can actually call them 'hoops' then?

We probably just told you that(and rightfully so) as it's awful short notice for us to be staging the game...afaik, there's not work going on in the Showgies now that would have made the ground unavailable.

No, not at all..

Should contact Dublin Bus especially Summerhill depot to get their window maintenance engineers ready too.

I think George Mullen and Co were doing work on and off this summer on the pitch this summer Sligoman. Well thats what i understood was happening but not 100%.

And before its gets into a debate about who owns what grounds i just feel that there is an awful lot of Jealousy towards rovers from other clubs.

And for the record Sligo were asked to stage the game but couldnt due to work been carried out on it i believe.

My post was not anti Rovers, it's anti FAI

Rovers obviously can't afford to **** off SDCC and platinum so they must play the game. Every single club in the league would do likewise. The post above was of course slightly tongue in cheek

Whatever about your quote being tongue in cheek, how was it anti FAI, you suggested that they use their rulebook to call off the Madrid game.
As i see it thats not anti FAI:confused:

It's anti-FAI because we all know that the FAI won't use the rulebook to force the game through.

I suggested it because any half decent football association would value their league over a meaningless friendly

The FAI are not a half decent association and will bend over and take it hard from platinum and real Madrid

If you bought tickets can you get a refund?

Closed for maintenance, it says.

Why would you need a refund? Not much more difficult to get to Tolka than to Tallaght surely?

Money always talks - the FA will reschedule games to allow Man Utd compete in essentially a meaningless world club competition. Remember they were allowed opt out of the FA Cup for the same reason.

That meaningless competition was a FIFA competition and they had to play it

Thats a world away from a friendly

Hold on- can somebody explain why this has happened? The games so far at Tallaght have seen the crowd only in one stand- so how does the work for the friendlies affect things?

It all just seems so unnecessary.

Assuming you're not being sarcastic....

SDCC and platinum don't want to have hackers on the pitch before Real madrid get on it
