Hi lads.
With the big kick off this night week, has there been any word in The Irish Daily Mirror on the P.F.A.I. Guide, or in The Star on their Official Guide for the new season ?
Official League mag from the Star will be distributed next week. It's a 60 page production and looks very good
Presumably the usual guides & mags are delayed this year, as the line-ups for the leagues were only confirmed 3 days ago on Wednesday.
What day is this out not in the country at the minute?Quote:

There are always loads of mistake. Players names spelled wrong, photos of players playing for a previous club, defunct club crests, incorrect website addresses and phone numbers and basic incorrect information etc.
Yes but when is it out does anyone actually know?
Probably Friday.
The P.F.A.I. Guide is out on Thursday.
I'm afraid I don't know when the Official Guide in The Star is out ?
where can i get it?
The shop.Quote:

Official Star one out on Monday
Had to be put back due to new sponsors and Cork saga etc
Thanks Mento.
Yeah Acornvilla, the one in the Mirror tomorrow is the P.F.A.I. Guide.
i just seen a add on the telly there. The pfai guide to the new season is free with the mirror tommrow along with a pocket fixture guide
There is League Guide in the Irish Sun today
got the one in the mirror today and one word "terrible" and that is being nice about it way too many mistakes
The mini fixture guide with the mirror is only for premier and i noticed the picture of Sean Kelly for Limerick is wrong. There might be mistakes but at least there are guides.
More than one word in that reply...Quote:

Yeha go it myself and its pretty crap to say the least, not exactly up to date as Faz signed for us last Thursday and isnt doww in our squad list!
The worst mistake is the UCD squad, it's just a reprint of the St. Pat's team.
Easy mistake to make in fairness; in reality, it's the Pat's squad that's just a reprint of our old team.
I can see the headlines now:
"FRESH DUAL CONTRACT FIASCO HITS LOI!" (Mirror)
"SINN FEIN TO BLAME FOR LOI SQUADS DEBACLE- COUGHLAN" (Echo)
"" (Irish Times)
Fixed that for you Mr A.Quote:

In Stephen Mc Guinness's long message on page three there is no mention of supporters who in large pay the players wages.
The guide was dissapointing,poor quality paper and no immagination in the features about each club.
Agree with this (Mirror's guide), it's like a newsletter for PFAI members, with a bit thrown in for fans at the back. That said, their treatment of the First Division is much better than The Sun's, which is almost non-existent. However, The Sun is worth a look if only for Keely's cut at Roddy! And his labelling of the Setanta Cup as "a farce".Quote:

Also, surely there is a picture of Kevin McHugh out there in a Harps Jersey?
The Sun's coverage is like the Setanta Cup, a farce. Only in the ramblings of Keeley is the first division even mentioned.
p.s. Keeley has laid his cards on the table, he has predicted Shels to win the league, shock horror.
Not even worth the one euro cost of the paper - also noticed that re Faz. Terrible production overall.Quote:

The PFAI Guide is poor enough alright but it always is and as has been said at least they made the effort. I'm waiting for the guide in The Star, it has been far superior over the past few years and I hope this years is no different.
Got two copies for free in Tesco this evening. The info for us was pretty much spot on, only a few minor things I would change. I like the way Sligo Rovers have a player called Darren Meehan and that Darren Meenan isnt listed in Dundalk's squad!
I hate the way under the heading "League Titles" it says we've won "None" though?? Granted it's been a while, but still.....?!:(Quote:
