GOAL TSUNAMI FUNDRAISER

Waterford Utd win 4-3 on penalties RES :D
Shels beat Kildare away 6-1. Crowe with 2, and he only played a half, as did O'Neil who scored one set up by Crowe. Hoolahan got another, Cawley another and the other was a OG
No offence taken. A lot of managers don't like playing teams in their own division.Quote:

Mons friendly with Omagh was called off - don't know why, but it was blowing a gale so probably just as well.
Is this going ahead because we are playing in the Setanta Cup on the following Tuesday :confused:Quote:

From the drogs mb could be a number of reasons:
- GAA match
- Leeds wanted match on saturday, so having it on sun morning was a compromise
- to prevent drunkan supporters from acting the bo_-ox!!
all valid reasons imo
Ah you're not usually that bad :DQuote:
