No such thing as bad publicity I guess :)Quote:

Nordie teams going well so far.
Rovers could show a bit of urgency for another .250 as wellQuote:

Have been watching the clubs from the Countries around us in the rankings. Not too bad of a night for us but we could do with someone making a league stage to maintain a EL spot.
Larne done it again on penalties and Linfield won as well. Swifts into ET but down to 10 men.Quote:

Dungannon gone to extra time against Vaduz - winner gets to concede a shedload against Troy Parrott next
Vikingur now 5-4 up on agg against I think Sligo’s old match fixing friends from Albania.Quote:

- Shamrock Rovers: a win and a draw (Optimistic view: two wins)
I think the fact the LOI is so competitive is helping Athlone, they've won 10 of 13 league games yet are only 3 points ahead of Shelbourne. Cardiff won the treble and the double in the last two seasons, some right hammerings handed out a long the way.Quote:

Doing notes on the Croatian team this evening, they have senior Croatian and Montenegro internationals by the bucket load, I'd imagine it will be a big step up.
I know that Derry City women's team play in the IFA league, but it seems quite odd to have different teams playing in different associations. I'm surprised that UEFA didn't have some issue with this regarding the Welsh women's teams.
I watched extended highlights of their game and even before they went down to 10 and then 9, they were fairly limited up front. Dinamo Zagreb they are not. Ludogorets were also no great shakes it must be said. Don’t see them making the CL League stage.Quote:

Two really bad games to watch there today. Was supremely confident of two wins after seeing the opposition a week ago but what's important is qualification and the money that comes with it.
Rovers will be delighted it's Larne in the next round. They'll be odds on to reach the playoff round and the draw Monday will be very interesting. There are only a handful of teams from smaller leagues but there's a lot of potential opponents that Rovers will fancy giving a rattle to reach the groups proper.
Can Shels play Winfield again in the conference league playoff? They're in opposite sides on Mondays draw again
Larne? They're playing Ballkani of Kosovo in the next round. Larne are playing Santa Clara.Quote:

Everton have just sold their women's team, so their different gender sides play under the same name but have different owners & different stadia in different leagues. The only thing they have in common now is the branding. It's like Tayto both sides of the border here.Quote:
