I hope it finishes 0-0.
I shall be infiltrating this event in the capacity of a mole (bring on the hate!). Were it not for the fact that I've to bring my nephew, I'd seriously consider a suicide bomb :D
I actually really like this idea.Quote:

Oh, no, wait.
And what's the "wider LoI community"?
I think the plan is too vague to have any real meaning, unfortunately.

At least they both have Irish managers I suppose...
And where would that be? :)Quote:

Sad day when tickets offically go on sale tomorrow and game is close to a sell out.
Also tickets on sale on Done deal already

I could see your point if this was only a friendly - I mean who goes to friendlies? - but this is a crunch Decider.Quote:

If people are willing to pay that then I suggest LOI clubs buy up a few batches and make a killing off it. Easy money :D
It's marketing genius though. The same people who won't pay €15 for a league game "because it's rubbish" will quite happily shell out up to ten times that to watch second-string sides who don't particularly care in a glorified pre-season training session. If only the people behind it could be convinced to leave the Dark Side!Quote:

It's a glorified friendly and already advised all the Tims I know to steer clear, as they hopefully will have far more important European games around then.
The idea, as it's backed by yer 'old pals' in the FAI of being linked to domestic football, even in the North, is a good one just hard to know how to take this further.
The Dublin Decider? its such an annoying name, what exactly is being decided like.. it angers me even
My placard will say "Down with this sort of thing" ;)Quote:
