The wonders of Sky +. Paused it and had a good old scan of the crowd!
Ive been to Ferrycarrig following the Longford & we were made very welcome there. Lovely pitch & facilities. If they get in temporary seating it wont be a problem. I do think all finals should be on neutral venues but I wasnt complaining when we bet Bohs in Flancare to win the cup in 2004.
Anyway I would LOVE IT if Wexford won ,LOVE IT.
I'm at the back, clapping out of snyc. My sons say I'm like Steve Martin in The Jerk...........Quote:

Anyone know seating arrangements yet? Hope we get as much in as possible. Even behind the goals we could fit a small bit, would look much better than standing around the fence.

Young Oldyouth knows how to copy it from Sky+ to tape. If I remember (thirsty Thursday after work) I'll get him to do it and bring it to the game tomorrowQuote:

"Tickets will first go on sale at Ferrycarrig on Saturday 13th of September at 1.30pm. Prices, set up by the FAI, are as follows:
Covered Stand Seating €25
Open Seating €25
Standing €15
Children €5"
I presume the "open seating" will be opposite the present covered stand, behind the dugouts and the standing will be behind either goal.
Just hope i can get some to nip on on saturday for them.
They seem a bit pricey, especially if you want to bring the family. Still, it's going to be a great night
Great excuse not to bring the family:cool:Quote:

Kick off is down for 19:30
great. Means we can enjoy a good day out in Wexford before hand!
oldyouth still moaning about paying a fwe quid to help out his club, I see. Some things never change!
Best of luck in the game though. But having seen youz against our A Team, I can't see anything other than a comfortable Derry win. But that's what I thought against Cork too. And were Limerick the last team to beat Derry in the League Cup?
Not giving out about helping the club (not that we need it anyway). I am surprised by the price of the tickets with no concessions for OAPs etc. If the number of FAI officials who attend the game is the same as our opening fixture in the league, I can see where it is all going and why it was set so high.Quote:

The team we put out against you was our A Team. Fairly straightforward.
Yep, we found the ball, thanks. It was in the bushes behind the goal. Fortunately, people had paid into the game, so the club would have had money to replace it if all else failed.
I was one of those who paid in to that game, not only for myself but also for my wife, son, parents, sister in law, 2 nieces and my nephew. You see, I don't mind paying my way and I look forward to visiting again next year to help you out furtherQuote:

Yes, your imagination is working fine, I was actually giving out that UCD did not let small kids in for free and then debated the point if it would generate more paying adults, like myself, if you did so.Quote:

Nope, we wouldn't have complained. If we wanted to take money from 7yr olds, we would charge it ourselves for home league games. It's better that they keep the few bob and buy a football or boots, so they can play the game that they come to watch every few weeksQuote:

This is not a Wexford Youths fixture but an FAI fixture and consequently we have no control over the situation.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused."
Fresh Ticket Information for Cup Final available on http://www.wexfordyouthsfc.ie/
What a day for football (soccer!!!!) in the county. The Wexford People aka Hurling Weekly has 6 pages devoted to the League Cup Final. I never thought I'd see it in my lifetime. I'm saving it for a good read at lunchtime.
It is a good read as well don't forget the back page which makes 7 pages of soccer in Hurling WeeklyQuote:

Wexford Echo has 12 pages this week including a lovely article from Magicme. It includes a picture of the 17 who formed the squad for our first match in Monaghan in March 2007. 11 of them have gone (if you include Locky).
I try to keep track of the appearance and goal stats for the Youths and we've used a massive number of players in our short existence. I think I had 47 on my spreadsheet the other day and we've had one more debut since then. It's crazy, also our most capped players now have over 60 league games behind them.
