friendly at home to shamrock rovers

Just on the pitch having to be closer to the fence.....it used to be!

This time last year when the FAI were inspecting the place Mick was told he had to narrow the pitch. I'm after forgetting by how much exactly but each corner flag was moved in 2 or 3 metres. The pitch is now maximum length and width as far as I know.

Pity but not surprised to hear reports of the local GAAlibans cronies doing everything they can to thwart the development of the ground every step of the way.

Some pics and a report here http://hoopssc.blogspot.com.

Looking forward to my next trip down!

Not a bad jersey IMHO.
If pink & black is good enough for Palermo it's good enough for Wexford Youths;)

I have to admit that it is not as bad as I had feared. Still not suitable for the 'fuller figured gentleman' like meself
