Ground Name

Yea - Welcome Wexford - Hopefully many years of a new football buzz in the south east & Hopefully a bit of local rivalry could boost gates in Wexford, Waterford & Kilkenny at least for a season!

A query for you:

How are ye referring to the new ground? What will it be known as?

The Stadio Del Wallace

Wexford v Waterford is what I'm hoping for. A local derby would be a nice way to start, and should bring in a good crowd aswell.

At the moment whenever the ground is referred to is just called Newcastle. don't know if it'll be named after someone or not in the future. It'll find it hard to escape being called Stadio Del Wallace I reckon...

Cool, finally feel like I belong now that I've a proper Eircom League team to support and not just clinging on to Waterford! Must get the club badge set up as an avatar now too! Looking forward to the season and it'll make a change really having something to shout about in the RCS! Used to like going to see Waterford, but never really felt it like my club.

Welcome Forza (and all who follow you) to the greatest show in the world. Looking forward to a proper derby since Cork and Kilkenny have been offering us poor enough opposition in recent years. :D

Good Luck to the Wexford team from all the Gooner Yellowbellies!:D

About time we had a team in the league, hopefully will get to see the games when over in the summer for the hurling:rolleyes: Hope all the county can get behind the lads!

Please change the kit to Purple, Florintina or Anderlecht kits with gold trim would be nice:ball:

Hi all, newbie in Wexford. Best of luck to Wallace & Dolan's charges for the coming season. I was talking to one of the squad members the other night and they're all chuffed and looking forward to the challenge.

joeSoap, unlikely as the squad's already selected, but we do have John Cooper, the Wexford gaelic football team's goalie, who's concentrating on association football this year at least.

Was disappointed that Pat Dolan was not introduced to Prime Time viewers last night as the General Manager of Wexford Youths & disappointed that he made no reference to it himself. I think it was a lost opportunity to get your name out there.

I know the subject matter was how to hang draw and quarter Stan & JDelaney. Just think either Pat himself or Miriam O'Callaghan could have referred to your entry to the League in some way.

If it is called that will any supporters be allowed in or will they be banned?:D

Seriously though, well done to all involved with Wexford Youths. Looking forward to the trip to the sunny southeast to see the two newest members of the eL.

Well that's what he was reported to be doing in the local press a couple of weeks back but I see he played for the footballers in the NFL last weekend, so maybe he'll now do both.

The final squad is not selected yet. I think there's 32 players training at the moment but only around 20 of them willl make it. This is the first I've heard about John Cooper - he hasnt trained with the team once and I doubt he'll be involved this year. Saying that, he's a great goalie and I'm sure if he was involved he'd be a great addition to the squad! Eamon Doyle and Shane Dunphy are the 2 keepers currently training with the "squad".

I'd say AVRoe is mixing John Cooper with John Hudson. Cooper as you say hasnt been involved and he is coming to the end of his Gaelic career, hardly say Wallace would see future in him with soccer.
