Anyone going to Drogs-Linfield...?

... that would be prepared to accept a 30-second call to establish the time delay in relation to Setanta pictures tonight? Please PM me if you could help.
Thanks in advance.

Yeah I've instructed Setanta to have a three-minute delay and I'll be on the laptop at United Park ;)
It's actually somewhat historic in that it's the first Irish football game to be live in-running on the world's biggest betting exchange.

Indeed.

Any result of this? My guess is at least 15 seconds

4-5 I believe Dodge. They had an eight-second in-running delay for safety. Also they were happy with the figures generated.

Good news. I'll miss most of them but would like the oppurtunity to trade with the Brit mug punters. I feel I'd have a major advantage there...

I thought you meant Setanta had a safety delay in case Felix lost the rag with David Jeffries and called him a ******* ****.

Was there any hassle outside this ground given the locals (not Drogs fans) can sometimes be irritable...?

I didn't see any anyway and didn't hear any reported by the Linfield lads who were down in the pub afterwards.

Apparently one very minor incident before the game but other than that everything was fine. Good to meet you by the way Bohs Partisan.

TBH, I'm a little bit surprised that there wasn't a few windows smashed on a Linfield supporter's coach, I'm not suggesting they could have been fans of Drogs either, just a bunch of shams.

There were loads of black clad riot cops down where the local n'er do wells usually wait.

A simple answer would be ... No. :rolleyes:

I know people from Drogheda & they would be wary of the local scumbags by the ground & ever said I wasn't suspecting Drogs fans.
