It's in UEFA, which is what counts, just like eg Israel or Kazakhstan.Quote:

P.S. That chart you cite is seriously misleading if you imagine Paris is bigger than London, "agglomeration" or no.
Remember seeing a game he played for Milan soon after he joined them , he scored two great goals and looked absolutely brilliantQuote:

Im just hopimng that we keep it to 2 or less so the match is at least in theory up for grabs like the Celje one when it gets back to Tallaght whuich should ensure a full house and a good nightQuote:

Some of the city is in Europe some of it is in Asia. It’s historically been a bridging point between the two continents.Quote:

I seen a clip of Gaffney on the pitch when people were celebrating and honestly even his walking didn't look overly comfortable, I'd say he'll be doing well to be back this season.Quote:

Doubtful that Gaffney will start for Rovers again this season I'd say.
Mandriou is eligible and should hopefully make the bench.
As sbgawa said, if we can avoid a pummeling,then hopefully a decent crowd in Tallaght next week against quality opposition.
Higher comps get priority, if in the same comp I thought it was ranking/co-efficiet for first dibs.Quote:

Anyone know of any links for this evenings games?
Is the Pats match being streamed somewhere? There's as much chance of a positive result for either side tonight as there is of next summer being dry and sunny. But I live in sun-starved,sodden,windswept Galway with eternal hope of a few fine days arriving, and that's my outlook for the games tonight as well.
LOITV are doing the Shams game for 10eQuote:
