eircom League Champions, Cork City FC, travel to Terryland Park on Valentines Day for a pre-season friendly against Galway Utd. at 19.30.
There's no love lost between these two clubs since Galway were unceremoniously dumped out of the FAI Cup, in a replay, after a "dubious" penalty.
Has this date definitely been confirmed Peadar? I know there was mention of us playing ye alrite but we hadnt heard a date.
Out of all the pre-season friendlies that we have arranged i'm looking forward to this one the most. As for there being "no love lost between the two clubs", are you on about the two teams because the two sets of fans i though got on very well with each other especially the game in Galway. Had a great evening and nite out with a few of ye that time.
Never mind yere "dubious" penalty.....the decision not to give us one in Terryland was worse!
Should be a good match....and is a good pre-season match for both clubs.
Will many of yee travel?
Ah I was only joking, Galwaygirl.Quote:

Oh the romantic inside Peadar is starting to show...Quote:

BUMP!
Do yee know Is there many coming up tonight lads?
i know a few going alrite who got the day off work for it. id love to be heading up, galways a good spot for a game / night out.
doubt there be more then 20 though.. were some city fans more interested in trying out for big brother today then going to the game!! :eek:
City are winning 1-0 John O Flynn the scorer
Galway 0 City 1 FT.
Ya but Devine sustained a pretty bad injury to his knee....he had to be stretchered off.
UTD probabaly deserved something from the game and tbh Shels looked alot better last week but it is only pre season.
About 20 city fans travelled......absoloutely shocking conditions...complete washout.
