RTE are more likely to show games which eL teams have a good chance in 2nd leg & will get bigger crowd in the ground as looks better on tv.
So why not show this one? There will be a good crowd.Quote:

To be honest, I think the over-riding consideration for RTE in whether or not they show an early round UEFA game is whether or not the other team's host media will pay for it ! If RTE are getting paid to provide live coverage of a game for another channel - or if another channel is already providing that coverage themselves - then they'll be tempted to carry it as well, as it's cheap content and a nice scheudle filler.Quote:

does United park have a UEFA license or is the match is going to have to be played elsewhere?
No. Its in DalymountQuote:

We will know what we have to do when we get Drogheda back to Helsingborg.
There are some good sides in the next round and although we don't have to face some of the bigger sides like Hamburg, Athletico Madrid or Sampdoria, we have been handed a tricky drawn against Irish side Drogheda.
They are doing well in the League of Ireland at the moment and I'm sure they will be eager to gain our scalp. Last year Drogheda only went out in the second qualifying round to IK Start on penalties so they have a bit of experience at this level.
I know Irish football is getting better all the time and there are players who have played in England, Scotland and other tough leagues going to Ireland, which can only help the standard to keep improving. I have no doubt that this will be a difficult game.
It's good that we will play the away leg first as that is always what you want in two-legged ties. We will know what we have to do when we get Drogheda back to Helsingborg.
I'll be looking forward to going to Ireland as it is a country I like a lot. The Irish are great people and I'm sure they will help to make it a great occasion. I know there are a lot of Celtic fans over there and it would obviously be fantastic if they turned up as it is always great to see Celtic supporters. But I'm sure the majority of people will still be behind
Drogheda and that will give them a big boost.
It's a game we need to win if we want to go forward and that is something everybody here is eager for. We want to get some momentum going and that means getting results in every competition.

From what everyone seems to say, and from the odd tv game I see of you, Doolin likes his team to sit and get 1 goal and hold on.
And to answer your question - Last time we played competitively, you won 2-0 in the FAI Cup. :p
Anything else, just ask;)
can you pay on the gate? is there online ticket sales?
Any Irish person who turns up at this game in a Celtic jersey and shouts for a Swedish team against an Irish team should have their passport revoked an be exiled for life.Quote:

I'd love it if thousands of Celtic-beshirted knuckledraggers turned up and Larsson did his hamstring in the warm-up.
For the uefa cup game.I want a win and that's that.But in the league we are expected to win nearly every game now and I would like us to be a bit more entertaining with our football.We have one of the best squads in the country and Doolin should take advantage of that,but it's almost like he cares too much about winning and plays very defensive football when we go ahead.Quote:

I would have expected Drogs to be a bit longer.
I read somewhere that Drogs have refused Helsingborg from setting up a stall to sell Larsson merchandise during the game.
Might have been interested in going but sitting in the rain does not appeal to me.
The weather is supposed to be good for tomorrow
http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?world=0031
Hope Drogs win but wouldnt be too hopeful really , think the bookies are being a bit generous to them but I'm more than happy to be proven wrong.
Will this game be broadcasted on the radio at least??
Nice one. :DQuote:

Feckin armchair weather watchers - looking to English sources for their weather, and turning their backs on perfectly good home-grown meteorlogical sources. A disgrace, the lot of them.....Quote:

Eurosport showed the Derry PSG game last year

Best bet would be point a dish at 1 degree west and hope that there is a satelite news feed for it. Nothing will show there until about 1 hour before match if that is going to happen
Will post here if I can find anything.
hope drogheda get stuffed
Will there be a camera at all at this game from any station or even from Drogheda?
Just seems if you're not in the CL qualifiers there is no coverage at all of other European ties which is a shame.
KOH
Or maybe Drogheda asked for too mcuhQuote:
