EXILES Meeting For UCD Game

Should the cup game be confirmed for Wednesday night, the EXILES should meet up beforehand. The problem with the UCD bars is that there are three of them and people might get split up. They are also not welcoming to non students.

Maybe people want want to meet in the city centre and go out to Belfield after. However, might I suggest Lonnergans pub which is adjoined to the Montrose hotel. It is opposite the flyover into UCD and is about a 10 minute walk to the ground. I'd be there from 6 on. Please reply if you would come along.

It is important that all Dublin based fans come along as there mightn't be many coming uo from Cork as it's midweek.

Once again, keep an eye on the internet fora for developments.

Lonnergan's @ Six
I'll be there as soon as I can make it in from work Snatch, depends on traffic.

I agree it's important that we get as many exiles out for this as possible, there will understandably only be a few up from Cork so it's on us to keep the lads motivated. :cool:

Fair play lads. As there won't be many travelling up from Cork its important to get a good few exiles there to give the boys support. Hope ye get a good crowd.

Having only become exiled in this dump since March, I am looking for directions to Belfield from city centre, using public transport if possible.

The number 10 from outside Trinity or on O'Connell St. will get you right out to the college and then you have to walk about 1Km to the ground down by the running track and across the playing fields. Follow the crowds :D

46A will save most of the walk if you're going straight to the ground, get off at Foster's Avenue.

Directions to Lonnegans

Both the 10 and 46A go there every 5 minutes or so. The 10 goes right into the campus so if you're going to Lonegans first, I'd advice the 46A which keeps going south along the dual carriage way. Get off beside the flyover going into UCD. You can't miss it but ask the bus driver.

Lonnegans ia about 100 yards on the left to the south of the flyover. It's in the same building as the Montrose hotel.

It's about a 10 miniute stroll to the pitch from Lonnegans.

Don't worry Pete, segregation in Belfield is second to none.
The "Home" fans get nowhere near the "Away" fans.
It's so good in fact that you wont even see the home fans.
You may even be fooled into thinking that there are no home fans.
It is that good! :D

The bad news there I'm afraid is that it's unlikely to be cured by going to UCD tonight. Perhaps you could wave one of those RedFM green and white cards around the place for a while to see if that helps you?

Exiles off the mark

Great to see a healthy turnout of Exiles at Lonnegans last night. :)

A match in Belfield is tedious enough without having to go alone.

Hopefully we can go from strength to strength with a lot of league games coming up in Dublin. So spread the word to any Corkonians (especially females :D ) living in Dublin; "Join the Exiles"!

There was about 100 City fans there and we didn't make a whole lot of noise, the reason being that we simply didn't give a sh!t about the game. Don't worry we'll make plenty of noise against Waterford on friday and Drogs on Monday.

As for the UCD fans, I feel so sorry for you. At one point there were 2 of you standing up singing, in the second half a few kids joined ye and there were nearly ten of ye. I've never seen anything so pathetic in all my life! I must say I enjoyed the abuse that some of ye got when ye walked past the City fans though! :D

Anyway, congrats on ye're little victory and best of luck with ye're first divison campaign. We've got bigger fish to fry.

Mock all you want but I know that quite a few of us (not all ;) ) weren't exactly dissappointed after last nights game and some people (not me!) were glad to be out of the cup so we can concentrate on the league.

Roll on Waterford and Drogs!

I was disgusted after we lost last night. People may rant on about backlog of fixtures etc but at the end of the day the cup was a chance of silverware and now it's looking like we're gonna end up with the good ol munster cup again!!!! :(
